What we are eating,and whats eating us,Monday...
Wishing you a great Monday too! This is a busy week for me... My family has two birthdays in the next week. My daughter Heather's is on Thursday and my hubby Steve's is next Monday. Thursday I am taking Heather out for lunch - just us girls. She is going out for dinner with her husband John and then we are going over to her house for a special birthday cake from a low carb bakery on Long Island. For Steve's birthday I will be making him chicken cutlet parmesan with low carb spaghetti.
Today I am doing some grocery shopping and also have to get my glasses fixed. One of the stupid nose pads fell off. What a pain!
I hope that everyone has a great day and an even better week!

Linda,
Today I'm on my way back to TN. Now that I'm leaving Seattle, the weather here has turned gorgeous - sunny, mild, dry.
Yesterday's eating:
B: 6 ricotta-stuffed strawberries
S: none
L: (at a buffet restaurant) to the best of my recollection: 2 raw oysters, 1 bite salmon, 2 slices bacon, 1 pot sticker, 1 slice kielbasa, 1 each marshmallow & strawberry dipped in the chocolate fountain, 1 small brownie, 1 small chocolate coconut layered thingie. It seemed like an enormous amount of food but I know I would have eaten 3 times as much in the bad old days.
S: raw veggies & multi-grain tortilla chips
D: Leftovers (2 shrimp, 3 pieces of turkey pepperoni, 6 cubes marinated feta cheese, 1 tablespoon hummus, 4 chunks of cantaloupe)
S: pineapple cake

I am happy you had a great time...because you ROCK!

Good afternoon, my dear!
Here I am, just stopping in to say hi! After Gary left for work I started straightening up the kitchen. Well,that started a MAJOR cleaning binge!!! Who knew the inside of the dishwasher could get so dirty? How can it? It's made to CLEAN for heaven's sake!!!
Then, I went to make a protein drink and noticed how the cabinet needed cleaning, which meant rearranging, which made me realize the spice cabinet needed cleaning/sorting. Oh God....it's a good thing Gary's not here. This kind of mood usually sends him a-hiding...LOL
so far today:
3 FF SF lattes (one right now, out of my freshly cleaned espresso machine)
bkfst burrito
cottage, cantaloupe, Orowheat Sandwich Thin, toasted with a little PB.
That's it for now. Gonna go enjoy my break!
EDIT TO ADD:
Protein drink
20 cherries
Dinner: 1 boneless bbq pork rib, 1/4 c coleslaw and Kashi Fiesta rice.
Might need to get in a fiber bar later.
