Jaden’s eating habits leave a lot to be desired. He is a snacker and would keep me in the kitchen all day if I let him. He does not usually like big meals (unless it is a favorite). Lately, he has been trading in his graham crackers or string cheese for Cheetos with Conner at school. Today I could have given him a much bigger breakfast. It was overlooked since I was working.

Juliette loves to eat, but is already finicky. She does not like chicken, fish, and is on the fence about ground turkey. I keep forgetting to buy Tofu, which was Jaden’s favorite when he was young.

So, I do not usually eat this way. Like did I eat any fruits/veggies today? Did I eat anything remotely healthy? Olives and a slice of tomato…Yikes! I feel toxic and look forward to ridding my body of all of this junk! Maybe if I blog for the whole world to see, the humiliation will keep me from indulgences like today!
