To say I am a picky eater is just as much of an understatement that the Empire State Building is tall. I could, and do, happily eat the same things over and over again and I don't like to experiment. I bring things I like, rather than crowd pleasers, to potlucks because then I know there will be at least one thing I will eat. I was a little worried about the food situation at The 3 Day last year. I knew the types of things available at the Pit Stops and Grab and Go's because I've been to several with my mom. But I never bothered to ask her about the actual meals. I'm happy to report I shouldn't have worried. The buffet line has something for everyone. Some examples of the offerings:

Do you have any questions for me about the Three Day? Please ask!
Melanie, a Three Day Online Ambassador, is walking her second San Diego Three Day in November 2010 along with her mother who will be walking her 10th! Help Melanie reach her fundraising goal of $2,300 by donating through her personal page. More photos from day one of the 2009 San Diego 3 Day on Flickr.
I love it that you are so passionate about this cause. I did my first walk last year and can't wait to do it again this fall.

Just so you know, the 3 Day has switched caterers this year, so there are slightly different food options this year than in the past. Still good stuff, but definitely different. No more spaghetti on Friday night (replaced with sometimes good, sometimes not so good) steak and potatoes. We had a terrible lunch the first day in Boston, but I think the overwhelming feedback caused them to switch back to normal sandwiches. And most importantly - no Uncrustables. They went back to the PBJ crackers that I personally prefer instead.
ReplyDeleteJust thought I'd give you a heads up, as I am also a picky eater.
