What I Did Today
I had plans today. I was going to fix breakfast, get dressed, and go for a walk. Then I was going to do some work on my jewelry project I started yesterday, and maybe catch up on a few of my TV shows. Instead, I woke up, ate, snagged the last cup of coffee, and vegged in front of the TV through several 45 minute episodes of Lost Girl, and then the latest episode of Masters of Sex. I probably would have watched more, but that was when Mattie texted to say he was off work, so I finished up for the day. Pretty much the only productive thing I did today was run to the store for tomato sauce, eggs, and coffee creamer, since we’ll need eggs for Sunday and I needed tomato sauce for dinner tonight.
What I Stuffed My Face With
Food was actually good today. Really good. I had scrambled eggs with the rest of the mushrooms for breakfast, a small salad for lunch (I am still loving Ken’s sweet Vidalia onion dressing!), and for dinner I made the Russian sweet cabbage soup that we fell in love with a few months ago (recipe here). I love soup! Mattie complained about there not being bread to go with the soup, but ended up eating a package of crackers instead. After dinner I had an apple, and called it good. That left me with 2 points left for the day, and I decided to use them up on a few slices of ham. I felt better after that and not really hungry, which is good because its that time of month and I normally ravenous this time.
I put the leftover 3 bowls of soup into bags and stuck it in the freezer- 2 servings for a night we eat together, and a single serving in a separate bag for me on a night Mattie eats outside of the house without me.
Whatever Else
I spent some time working up dinner menus for the next few months, and including a few new recipes in the mix. I had thought I had worked up all of this month, but then I noticed my calender seemed off. The calender I downloaded had no Saturdays! I had to find another one and transfer everything over to it, and fill in the blanks. The good thing is every other Saturday we eat with Mattie’s dad, so I don’t have to plan for those days.
Not much else to say so finishing up for the night. Hopefully tomorrow I’ll get my walk in.
