CHIPOTLE #30!!!!


Today, at lunch I had Chipotle #30 for the year. This is quite a milestone. (FYI: We are in the middle of the 20th week of the year, so I am still averaging more than one a week. I got thrown off a little the two weeks in South Africa when we had no access to Chipotle.)

I started out the year thinking, "I wonder how many times I eat Chipotle in a year?" So, I am counting. I'm not trying to eat there MORE than I normally would, I simply want to know how many times I naturally eat there during the course of a calendar year. Today's Chiptole was a Barbacoa Bowl with black beans, rice, hot salsa, sour cream, cheese, and lettuce. It was great.

So far, my most memorable Chipotle of the year was #28, the stop between CVG and home when we returned from South Africa. Yummmm.

I have not tried Carnitas yet. I am waiting until I get burned out on Barbacoa, and then I'll move on to Carnitas. I am looking forward to it. So far this year I have gone through a vegetarian phase and a chicken phase, just hold on carnitas, I'll get to you. (Steak, too.)

I do have a song that I've shared with some close friends about Chipotle:

Maybe this weekend if I'm lucky I can have some Chipotle.
(That's the whole song -- It's more of a chant really.)

My friend Amy thinks I should be the Jarred of Chipotle. "I ate Chipotle ___ times this year, and I'm still skinny." Love it!

oh man this makes me laugh. i love the jared of subway. he went to IU while I was there and his subway was just minutes from my house. it was quite a dumpy subway if you really want to know. no chipotles are dumpy. they are always fun, happy places. YUM. 30 visits by May...you are certainly impressive.

Jenn - you may remember, my BSU pal, Doug Sheets was Jared's neighbor at IU. The reason that Jared ate so much Subway was NOT that it was healty - it was just CONVENIENT! He lived upstairs, Subway was DOWNstairs - same building. Jared = lazy.

Rachel will be the perfect Chipotle healty eating guru. "I eat 2000 calories at Chipotle in one week - I am still skinny!" yay.
