SOLO CRUISE CHALLENGE DINNER FOR ONE...

It's my first solo cruise and I'm doing something I've never done before. Eat dinner by myself in the dining room. I also don't even know if I can sit by myself because my reservation is technically with eight other people that I don't know. So fingers crossed we get lucky. I'm able to sit just by myself? Yes. Thank you. No idea what I'm gonna get. Any drinks I can offer you? Any drinks I can offer you? I think I'll do a sparkling rosé. Thank you. I think I'm gonna do the steak. I don't know if I can say that wrong. The chicken cordon bleu. I think I'm gonna do the chicken cordon bleu. I can't decide between the steak or the chicken cordon bleu. "We can do both if you want." "Chicken cordon bleu as an appetizer." And beef bourguignon as the main. I had no idea he said beef bourguignon and not steak au poivre. He fucked up. That sounds great. "And for dessert?" "Crème brûlée." I'll do the crème brûlée. I'm so flipping nervous right now. Need this. Many sips later. Chicken cordon bleu. First. I've never had this before. It looks good. Oh wow, that's really good. I'm impressed. I'm impressed with myself that I like it. It's really good. I'm already full. "Beef bourguignon!" Thank you. "Princess you enjoyed everything?" "You're stuffed?" "Some space for your yummy yummy dessert." Crème brûlée. Thank you. Oh my gosh, yes. Like the crunchy top. Oh my gosh. It's so good. This was worth the entire experience of having to come and eat by myself. Happy birthday. Thank you. Yeah, this is worth the entire experience of having to come and eat by myself.
