Day 125 - You Are What You Eat

My daughter had a friend over and they were playing Resident Evil. Amid the screams and general mayhem it became apparent that the combatants in the game did not have a well balanced diet; kind of like me (but without the blood and gore)

Breakfast - Spam with 2 eggs
Lunch - tossed salad and yogurt
Dinner - chicken and pasta with brussel sprouts

OK, OK ... I also had 3 doughnuts.

Day 124 - Willie, Willie, Willie

Ben and Jerry has a new flavor, Willie Nelson's Peach Cobbler. The ice cream is slightly evil (I have no power over it's siren call), just like the food at his restaurant, Texas Roadhouse. A perfect evening would be a steak dinner followed by this ice cream. Num...

Breakfast - fried eggs and Spam
Lunch - lasagna
Dinner - chef salad, a dessert which shall remain nameless

Day 122 - It's Squirrely






















I roll sour cream cookies so thin they are translucent. You can't reuse the dough since it becomes tough but the local wildlife is happy to pick up the remainders.

On cookie day the crows start cawing as soon as I open the deck door. I have no idea how they know I'm baking them but when the dough is tossed in the back yard the race is on; crows vs squirrels.

Breakfast - leftover lasagna
Lunch - BLT
Dinner - tuna salad and an orange

Day 120 - Popovers
















I woke up to left over popovers; it's a good day.

I'm such a hero, The rib-eye had bones and I roasted them for the dogs. We need to keep a close eye on Zelda's progress. She may be only 5 pounds but she can chew things up like a giant junk yard dog.

Dinner was leftover baked potato, rib-eye and green beans.

Day 119 - I Don't Like The Brown Ones


















My dog Zelda doesn't like the dark brown kibble in her bowl. She spits them out and leaves them everywhere. Fortunately my other dog, Marilyn, prefers the dark brown pieces and cleans up Zelda's trail of rejects.

I made popovers this morning.

Lunch/dinner was prime rib, popovers, green beans, and baked potato. Desert was fudge and Christmas cookies.

Day 118 - Finals Are Over

Life has been a little hectic and I haven't kept up with the blog. I got the flu, then a cold, then working while attending school full time caught up with me. I've spent the last few days watching trashy movies and reading anything not school related.

We'll pretend I hadn't done this art journal entry 4 days ago. The food on 12/13 was quiche, Special K and pasta with veggies. Today I ate turkey dumpling soup, a peanut and butter and banana sandwich on toast, and a grapefruit.
