What's on your (PHOTO) Friday Menu, RNYers?
We did it! Another week is done! I hope everyone has an awesome weekend ahead!
This morning I have to bring these two little scoundrels to the vet for the annual check ups and shots. Here they are in my favorite picture of all time. This sums up their personalities, perfectly.
Accountability: Good, I guess, but it was a weird long day. I only had cheese whisps and a meat stick all day until dinner with my friend, who served a vegetarian salad and wine.
Photo this week: The view I had from my day spent in the hammock reading. Ahhhhhh.
QOTD: What food is your state famous for? Everyone always talks about Boston Baked Beans, but it's a myth as far as I can tell.
I need to go to the grocery store... Thankfully I have leftovers from our dinner out the other night, even if the carbs are too high...!

I didn't make it to the gym, I instead binge watched on sling and relaxed and cooked some food. made a tofu veggie dish that turned out really low in calories like 113 so that is good. I didn't eat past my evening snack so that also was a win.
QOTD: well Georgia peaches which south Carolina really should lay claim to. most of the peaches come from there, we are actually the peanut state! Chattanooga is known for whisky and moon pies and little debbies... I have been to the store that sells the moon pies and gotten dh some!
food plan for today:
coffee
water
more coffee
tofu veggie
last of chicken curry?
not sure what else really
