What we ate today

[CLOE 0]

This might seem like a real stupid thread, I'm not sure. But I have noticed that I always seem to eat the same dozen things over and over. I think it would be interesting for anyone who wants to, to post simply what we ate today. It dosent have to be great detail, but it might arise some new ideas for those of us that can't seem to figure out what to eat. And if it is really cool, we can post the recipe so we can all enjoy it.

So I would start except I had take out tonight for dinner:rolleyes: ...........oh but I did have a toasted cheese and Tomato sandwich for lunch...mmmm(tomatos were fresh from the garden,yum)

I woke up ... or tried to wake up early this morning to go grocery shopping. We were in a hurry, so I thought we'd stop at Tim Hortons for a coffee before we went out. The line was so long, we just left. Went grocery shopping, and when we got home I made myself a grilled cheese sandwich. (you know when you're hungry at the groc. store, and you get all these 'idea's?) Hadn't had one in... probably 5 months at least.

- later on... I had a couple Cookies.

- Supper: I had some chicken wings in the freezer that I'm worried I won't be able to eat later on, so we made them tonight. Thought I could have 10, and Dan would have 10. I ended up eating 5. Mostly because they were tooo hot, and not wanting to drink at the same time as eating, I just couldn't have anymore!

- couple more Cookies

I am hungry... but I'm drinking lots of Water. I have a couple cookies left... I feel like just eating them so they're gone. I know I *should* throw them away... and maybe, just maybe... I will.

Errrrr.....why not....

Breakfast: Cereal (TurboZ) with milk (ate this late: around 9:30)

Didn't really have lunch...(out and about and went to a movie)....so had "Slupper" (Lunch and Supper together) around 3:30:

Slupper: shared the fol meal with hubby (we ate out): ceasar salad, chicken and fries (gulp....) (they were seasoned "salt & vinegar" fries: OUT OF THIS WORLD).

That's it. Prob not the best choices (the fries) and I know I didn't eat enough today....but tomorrow's another day!

(Wknds for me are always a little less stringent).....work days are easier!

lunch - sausage and cabbage cooked with garlic and chilis (modified a recipe I found on here)

dinner - chicken salad

I chopped spinach, grated carrots, cooked black Beans, etc for this weeks. My new fav meal is all of the above with tuna and dressing (thousand island, ranch, vinegar/oil)

I have 6 packets of tuna left for my 11 days until I visit the states - can I take 1 or 2 for my 40 hours of flying and airport time - that is one of the worst times for me.

Oops just noticed this is Canada support - is ND close enough?
