What did you eat today?

[GLC1968]

After the weekend of overeating I just had, today is shaping up much better!

I'm such a bad influence!

OK, for me today:
B: french toast (whole grain organic bread, 1.5 fresh eggs, a little goats milk, sugar free syrup)
S: coffee w/ goats milk & handful (15) of pretzel nuggets
L: left over veggie pizza and a small bowl of blackberries
S: grapes, most likely
D: grilled salmon, roasted beets, baked acorn squash & steamed broccoli
S: probably a zucchini muffin (assuming I get around to baking them like I hope)

I'm such a bad influence!

No you're not. Without your influence, I wouldn't have that pretty new dress! Besides, I'm a firm believer we have to take responsiblity for our own eating habits. I know I control my own destiny. The only person making me overeat was me.

roasted beets

Ooh, now *there's* a good idea! Fresh from your garden to my plate. Seems to be a recurring theme of the past couple of weeks!

BTW - I have 6 or 8 more jars of that plum jam in my freezer. I read you're out. Remind me to bring you another jar next week.

Mmmm, plum jam! I can trade you your little empty container for a full one!

B- 1 c. of oatmeal with abit of skim milk
fresh plum
tea with skim milk

snack- 1 multigrain raspberry scone
coffee with milk

snack 2- small slice of rosemary bread, 2 rye crackers
1 peach
tea with skim milk

Supper- pasta sauteed with beet greens, gai lan (belongs in mustard green family. It's a Chinese veggie.), red pepper, onion, garlic, ginger root, a dab of chili paste and abit of soy sauce. I cobbled this together with no recipe --amazingly filling, even kind of meaty in taste. Hard to explain this.. A colourful dish too.

B.- oatmeal with milk, a fresh plum

Then 2 hrs. later at 10:00 am had lunch (questioning my own sanity) at a gourmet bakery cafe:
Lunch
latte with skim milk
paninni sandwich with roasted veggies & goat cheese
dessert of pistachio sour cherry chantilly cream pastry.

Snack of more fresh plums and tea with milk

Supper planned for:
homemade leek and potato soup

Pretty cavalier to use the excuse it's a thxgiving weekend for eating like this. Tomorrow planning on a long bike ride where at end of day will be supper with friends at a Malayasian restaurant. Menu has alot of red chili icon-marked dishes. Yay!!

I was a very, very bad girl today... we ate brunch at a local winery. Yes, that means I drank wine. On the menu was pecan-crusted salmon, southern fried chicken, gorgonzola mashed potatoes, creamed spinach, spinach salad with strawberries and walnuts and a brown sugar vinegarette. OMG -- to die and go to heaven. For desert was cheesecake, key-lime tarts and chocolate covered strawberries.

Oatmeal with PB and raisins.

Plenty of Sencha green tea.

Warm blueberry-pomegranate juice.

(Maybe there's a small handful of almonds in here, I don't quite remember. )

Leftover gobhi masala (local cauliflower, garlic and onions, and homegrown hot peppers), masoor dal & rice.

A mixture of rice syrup and barley malt syrup and a pinch of sea salt in my gel flask on my long run.

Risotto with local lima beans, onion and garlic, and homegrown red Russian kale, with some imported parmigiano reggiano and aged balsamico on the side, and local white Cabernet Franc.



I did pretty good today. Maybe some of those amazingly delicious local grapes before bedtime.
