Me likes the rice cooker. It's a closed system without any nasty leakage. Only a little bit of steam coming out of a little valve on top.

Should have invested more money from the beginning on... 🙄

Meet my new rice cooker mini. It can cook up to 3.5 cups of dry rice (brown rice a bit less). If this thing is good I'm going to invest into the bigger version for batch cooking because my husband is already interested in taking the mini one home with him, lol.

This one is really cute! I used to have a rice cooker that had a separate layer for vegetable steaming. It was very convenient. Does yours have that feature?

[summerset 5,265]

Yes, it has a little basket that you can put into it, either solo or on top of the rice. One can also bake a cake in it. At least the instructions claim so. 😯

Yaaaaaaassssssss...sushi/sashimi take out for dinner last night!

Just sashimi for me: ate 3 salmons, 2 tunas, 1 octopus, 1 scallop, with wasabi soy sauce and a bit of spicy seaweed salad: 253 cals.

First meal today was a bit odd, even for me:

1/2 a Boston cream donut, 1 slice of bacon and some ketchup. Had the bacon and donut together (surprisingly delicious) as well as the bacon and ketchup together (classically delicious)...but not all three together. The kid dared me but I was all...um no thanks.

207 calories.

*I accept full responsibility for the effects on my heart rate that the donut is already having. At least Im not sick. Semi-win. Whomp, whomp.

So my first post-op restaurant trip happened. Sooner than I expected for my vacation as I was ready to do dinner. Sadly, some light rain has kiboshed my plan to rent a scooter for the moment. So we ended up bunkering down at a restaurant. So, I went with lunch instead and will eat a Protein Bar for dinner.

Ordered loaded deviled eggs and a bowl of roasted Tomato and red pepper Soup. The eggs were rather bland for being “loaded”, but the soup was amazing.

Congratulations! How did your stomach handle everything?

So far so good! Definitely got right up to my limit but stopped myself from going over it. Really really wanted more of the Soup, but getting myself sick would have been a lousy start to my vacation

Last night’s dinner. Kind of boring. Grilled chicken thigh, which I just season with salt and pepper, and some roasted green Beans. I do some of these chicken thighs almost every week and take them to work for lunch. Simple and tasty.

OMG! Smoked bay scallops! These are going back to the room with me and into the fridge for snacking tomorrow!

[summerset 5,265]

Prepared some of the leftover rice from yesterday with coconut milk and cinnamon. Not as creamy as when cooked with coconut milk of course but a non-regrettable substitute for the lazy cook anyway.

Though I have to admit it looks more like some kind of... meat balls in cream? lol

Oooooommmmmmggggggg

So seeing @Pandemonium’s scallops pic earlier activated a salt craving in me for some reason, so fixed myself one of my mini charcuterie plates again for a snack: old cheddar, prosciutto, salami, fig jam & frozen blueberries: 386 calories.

Ate about 2/3 of it all, but should’ve stopped at half...am unpleasantly full. Not sure if I will finish the rest later, I’m salted out for the day, I think.

Also, I think I had more fun building the little hor d’oeuvres bites and taking pictures of them to make this little collage, than actually eating it. Meh.
