In an attempt to make-up for his wrong decision, Brian had to take me to Panera for dinner and watch a Johnny Depp movie with me. He doesn't really like Panera anymore, so it was a semi-punishment, but mainly so that I could go to my comfort food. And well, the Johnny Depp movie, that speaks for itself!
Well, after having Panera last night for dinner, he suggests we go there for lunch today. Say what? Yes, my husband has no shame and will go to the same restaurant for back to back meals. Not even drive across town and go to the other Panera, but the same location as last night. I would like to state for the record that I did not influence this. He wanted a pre-concert meal of Panera. As much as I love Panera, I even asked if he is insane, while enjoying my lunch.

Cliff Notes for my Stalker
If I were on tv, Panera would be the place were I would finally encounter my stalker. The audience would be sensing disaster as I frequented the same local day after day. But, alas, I would not heed any warnings. Panera is just that good!
I really don't know what I would do without my almost daily trip to Panera. I have to hand it to the employees though, day after day, they act like they don't know what I am going to order. They don't rush me and they don't try to correct me, even when I insist on pronouncing Fugi as Fiji. They also seem genuinely happy to see me everyday, although that could also be due to the fact that I am single handily ensuring that their kids go to college. But they always smile and always talk to Caedan and make him feel special. Even the lady in charge of sweeping the floors and wiping down the tables comes over and "chats" with Caedan. She will smile and compliment him as he is throwing food on the floor, thus making her job more difficult. I have no idea where they find their employees and what rigorous training problem they have, but they do an amazing job. Perhaps their employees are selected at birth?
If Disney World is the happiest place on Earth, Panera is a close contender. My Fuji Apple Chicken Salad, no gorgonzola with French bread, large iced tea, and nutty chocolate chipper cookie is the perfect meal. Caedan has been raised on their anti-biotic free chicken, thus far and I don't see it ending any time soon, stalker or no stalker.
However, I do feel like too much of a freak to go 7 days in a row, so I usually take Wednesdays off, stalker take note. Keep in mind though, that the employees are different at dinner time, then lunch time. So it IS acceptable to have 2 meals a day at Panera, which happens more than I like to admit. I also find myself driving to the other Panera in town, just to ensure that they do not think I am a weirdo for always eating at their restaurant, because we all know that the difference between freak and not a freak is only going 6 days a week, not 7.
