I'm about to head to Costa Rica for 2 weeks, but here are a few chain-related thoughts for you to ponder while I'm gone:
1. Pray for me not to starve. Airports aren't exactly the easiest things to navigate when you're dodging chains. I'm baking cookies right now to bring along, just in case.
2. McDonald's and KFC have infiltrated central America (and the world), but are there Costa Rican chains? And how will I know if I'm eating at one?
3. Bones, the Denver Frank Bonanno restaurant, has one of the top 10 greatest things I've ever eaten on their menu: steamed pork belly buns. I was reminded just how delicious they are on a lunch date with my food mister (FM). Oh and Frank, please don't open another restaurant - right now your 4 sneak in under my chain quota.
4. The last time I was in Costa Rica I fell in love with Trits, a cookie/ice cream concoction. I'm bringing an insulated lunch bag with me so I can bring back the Trits, fully expecting them to melt. If I re-freeze them when I get home, will I get sick when I eat them? Do I care?
5. My cookies are done so I'm gonna go eat 4.

Just 4? Are they your date-nut cookies? I'm so sorry I've been out of touch...I've been out of touch with everyone, locked away in my house with baby. I can't believe it's already Costa Rica time! Have a wonderful vacation, I know how much you're looking forward to it. And maybe by 2 weeks from now I will have a little time to talk.
