Whatchya Eatin' Today VSGers? - Monday?

I LOVE borscht! Hot, steamy, winter comfort food! My mama never put the beets in it when I was little because I didn't like them. Then when I was older she taught me to appreciate beets by grilling them and sautee-ing the greens. I am still not fond of them pickled on a salad (Yuck!) but I love them roasted and in borscht.

Anyhow, ours is beef stock and beef with lots of cabbage, potatoes, beets (and I will always use the white or golden beets if available), celery, onion, carrots, lemon, garlic, juniper berries, bay leaf, pepper, etc....

I'm waiting for my abdomen to forgive me for making it sit in a car for two hours today before I head off to bond with the treadmill at my gym. I want to get back before I've lost a super noticeable amount of weight so I don't have any explaining to do. 

Not to rub it in, but that first bite of pureed food will be heavenly.  

I feel like I've been planning that first bite for months at this point ;)
