Daily Food - 5/8


Breakfast: Have a little more time on the weekends, so today I made myself some over-easy eggs, which are probably one of my favorite foods. Also some toast, juice, and coffee. I love this flax and fiber bread. Oh, and there is a little of the homemade butter from the farmer's market on the toast.

Lunch: I went to Twin Kiss to pick up lunch for Dave and I. We were in there for ice cream the other night and it smelled so good - kind of reminded me of Tastee Freez or some other places we used to get subs when I was a kid. So I got a good old cheeseburger sub and some fries, and mmmmmm it was good. I also had another coke, which is two this week. They are starting to creep back in, so I need to be more diligent. But even the cat couldn't believe I ate the whole thing. See?


Snack: We got some very yummy chips and salsa. I was very pleased with the ingredients for the chips. They are Garden of Eatin' brand. Very tasty. We also made some iced coffee drinks. We bought some Monin Almond syrup, which is also all natural.


Dinner! This was a switch from the original plan, because it was way too windy to grill. So we had leftover sweet potatoes and broccoli and from acorn squash with sausage. I am going to post the recipe because it was sooo delicious.


Dessert: I made an apple crisp. As desserts go, this one is ok. It does have a good bit of white flour, brown sugar, and butter, but it also has a lot of oats and apples. I haven't actually eaten any of this yet but I am totally going for it after I finish writing this. With some vanilla ice cream.

The Good: Dinner was totally thumbs up I think. I also made some iced tea today so maybe I can lay off the juice and soda. Eggs for breakfast were good. Off the bagel kick. We got some good stuff at the store today too.

The Bad: Lunch. It was delicious but I am such a sucker for cheeseburgers. I think I need to start coming up with some stuff I can keep on hand for healthy lunches and breakfasts, or just start planning them like I do dinners, because they aren't really that balanced and it is easy for me to run out and grab something on the weekends. I need to be more diligent with the soda, too. I was at about 1-2 a month, which I am happy with. It is getting back to 1-2 a week (still better than 3 a day). But the one today wasn't even that good. It just tasted like sugar water. And dessert... ah, my weakness. I love to bake but I try to avoid it because whatever I make gets devoured. That apple crisp will be gone by the end of the day tomorrow.

And speaking of, I am off to have some.
