CNTWT2BMINIME 78 Posted August 2, 2012 Slenderella So glad to hear that you are doing so well! My turn tomorrow and I am a bit nervous. I have made it to the hotel, tomorrow morning it is across the border and into the OR. Still cannot believe it! It will be all worth it! Hang in there and prayers for a smooth surgery & fast recovery! 1 allnewme reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
allnewme 262 Posted August 2, 2012 Stormwarning, Egg drop Soup is like a chicken broth base and they whip egg, like you would to scramble them, then once the broth boils they whisk in the egg. If you like poached eggs you would like it, if not the you probably wouldn't. Theirs here had 3 or 4 carrots chunks and 4 peas in it. It was good. There are also other Soups, one was chicken and something and she said it was a broth based soup. They also had wonton soup and you can just take the wontons out and it is usually like a veggie broth. They are $3.99 or $4.99 per large bowl. There is also a microwave in the room if you want to bring soup and heat it in the room. There is a mini fridge but ours is barely cool. The room is huge with 2 queen beds and tons of room, not crowded at all. I wish I had brought some of the Lipton creamy soup packets and a mug to make soup here. Since you are driving, you could bring more stuff. Also, there is a Mexican restaurant that is recommended in our paperwork, but the girl at the desk said it was quite a long walk and it was at the hottest part of the day. Plus it is on a busy four lane road and there is no sidewalk. We did not want to get run over going to dinner! We just walked the quarter mile or so to the Chinese place. Think happy thoughts for me tomorrow! I am no longer counting days but hours....crazy!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
