Egg whites, turkey bacon, and onion swiss cheese on whole wheat with salt, pepper, and hot sauce; cubed watermelon
(All from the Korean bodega with the hispanic ock... yes, we are very diverse in Queens!)
The ock messed up both orders before mine (one had the wrong cheese, another was put on a hero instead of a roll), so no surprise he screwed this up as well. I generally do not mix meat and dairy so I did my best to pick off the cheese. It was way too rich for me regardless and I know I will regret this later.
They have also raised their prices and now the bagel store is cheaper. I will continue to buy kimchi there but probably not hot food unless in a pinch.
ETA: I had also completely forgotten that I pre-ordered a protein plate on my flight. My reasoning was that if I was upgraded to F, all of the F meal options have pork, so at least I could guarantee this would be onboard. The crew on this flight is amazing. I told them I forgot and wasn't going to have it, and they told me the system was down and to just take it for later -- they weren't going to charge me anyway. I should have thrown out the sandwich. Oh well; it took over 90 minutes from takeoff for the cart to come out so I wasn't waiting for it anyway.

Incredibly warm and fresh caramel coconut chocolate chip cookie from Levain in Bethesda - one of the better things that has been in my mouth:
I bought one to take home to Mother tomorrow - but I might just eat it instead.

Poor M Club breakfast at Marriott Metro Center (only meat choice was shriveled turkey sausages)
Walked about 7 miles in total to Georgetown to get some more Levain - the caramel coconut was delicious, and I got a dark chocolate chocolate chip for after my flight
Another delicious pizza from Stellina - the staff knew I was leaving today and were excited to see that I ended my trip with one last hurrah - though, they did claim I should order two pizzas since it was my last visit

Lunch -- I split the four meat tray at Chef J's BBQ in KC/MO with a buddy yesterday. It included sausage, ribs, burnt ends and brisket. The sides were the cheese corn, mac and cheese and potato salad as well as the fixin's (pickled onions, jalapeno, etc)..
After our whiskey tour, we visited The Peanut for their famous wings. Six is enough for two meals and they were also my lunch today.
