I will never eat again

superbadgirlWe had a(nother) work potluck today - Mardi Gras themed, so we had gumbo, jambalaya, red beans and rice, etc. for lunch. Most of it had stuff in it that I don't usually eat or prefer not to - shrimp, pork sausage. I managed to eat around most of it and oooooh, I am still full, five hours later. I can't imagine how the others feel, as I specifically took a salad plate instead of a big one.
My contribution? A King Cake (couldn't find a plastic baby, so I tucked in a Mardi Gras coin) using crescent rolls and a coworker brought a fryer for beignets, so I also made hush puppies. O.M.G. I think if I were ever in a situation where I knew what my last meal would be, it would include hush puppies. I've eaten them before, of course, but never made them. I don't have a fryer at home and this is a very, very good thing. I made a batch of plain and then a batch of jalapeno. Next time, I won't deflame the peppers. They weren't spicy enough.
I really am stuffed to the gills, though. Urgh. I can't imagine eating like that very often.
It was so worth it, though.
