Is it just me or is anyone else noticing the serious lack of veggies here? What’s funny is that I’ve got an entire fridge drawer devoted to them, but I’m not eating any of them. I suppose I should get on that, huh? The weekends always seem to be more junk-food filled than the weekdays, though. I did do a monthlong stint eating raw, which included enough vegetables to nourish a third-world country. I should probably get back to that. Or maybe my spinach smoothie after school. Guess it would help if I had spinach here.
I’m also trying to figure out how to get more activity in my day. Yesterday shoveling snow and putting up the Christmas tree were the extent of my activities. Today I could walk on my lunch period but I’ve got to run to Walgreens and pick up a secret santa gift. I could walk after school, in the school, because the wind chill here is below zero and the streets/sidewalks are still icy. Or I could come home and do the Wii. I vote for Wii because I just realized we have a teacher’s meeting after school and those make me seriously hate being in the building any longer than I need to.
So, more veggies and more exercise. Anything else I need to do better?
the hubby can’t say ‘brownie batter blizzard’ three times fast without getting tongue tied, and it’s a good thing. I wouldn’t have shared this had he asked. New recipe, excellent batter and even better brownies. It’s a keeper. Just to be sure, I ate about this much of the batter before baking. Good stuff. Killed the chocolate craving.
I didn’t eat this exact half-cup of chips. I had two small handfuls while making a pan of brownies with a new recipe, and I figure this is about the amount I shoved in the pie hole. Not that great, really. These were cheap chips. Less wax, more chocolate please.
a lean cuisine panini and those mini cokes. The sandwich was mildly disgusting. I hate preformed, slimy chicken, so I picked it out and gave most of it to the dog. I ate the bread, spinach and cheese. Still slightly gross but I did not feel like cooking a single thing. Except cookies.
Part 1 because I ate two dinosaur chicken nuggets–nastiest things I’ve put in my mouth in a long time–and decided I wouldn’t eat another one. These are things the boy loves. So disgusting. Tater tots are just as nasty, IMHO, but I snacked on them while my real dinner microwaved….
