Deja vu all over again

Sunday morning Li Ting called. She was craving the french toast at 202. Had I been? Did I know where it was? I told her I'd meet her in thirty minutes and got up to shower. I put on my "i eat carbs" t-shirt and took the train to Chelsea.

After the creamy sweetness of the toast, I asked if they had spinach. Mikiko said she'd check. When she returned she said it was coming. Li Ting was impressed. I said we were at Chelsea market. If they didn't have it in the kitchen they could have just gone to a store and picked some up. She nodded and supposed that was true.

On the way back home I stopped by the supermarket and bought hamburgers and buns. Eric had invited me to a stoop BBQ at his house later that day. When I arrived, people were sitting on the steps ot his house. It was like an asian Spike Lee movie.

Last Sunday I had gone to 202 for brunch (with Lynda and Sereen) and then come to Brooklyn for Teresa's BBQ. I was wearing the same shirt (though laundered) and jeans. I was eating burgers again, easily reaching my usual yearly limit in two days. I felt like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day only without the moral lesson and with many more burgers.
