i'm eating COOKIES. so i guess that doesn't count.

wait - let's be honest here ONE COOKY. see what i'm obsessing about?????/

Monday started out so well but ended up as a taste-test frenzy. It was horrible and I almost felt sick from all the little tidbits I tried yesterday. I did make a good spicy lentil soup yesterday, but the darn GKs ate it all so no leftovers!! LOL! Spent all night writing a letter to the insurance company about why my abdominalplasty would be a medical necessity.

Tuesday Oct 28 th. Today is another day
6:00 a.m. 3/4 c. Special K. Protein Plus with 1/2 c. milk
10:00 a.m. Mattrix Hot Chocolate Protein Drink with dry powdered milk and 1 TBSP of SF nesquik. one Splenda Blend Chocolate chip cookie
Lunch: Plan on having pinto beans and cheese
Supper: Searchlight Meatloaf and scalloped cabbage in the works

I've already got a High Protein Cornell loaf of bread in the proofer, grandkids out the door for school, and need to do something with my skin. I've got the dullest winter skin already and need to spruce myself up. Even my grown kids said I need some "color". Of course I'm freezing and have on an undershirt, a thermal shirt, sweat shirt and a long, long sweater. We had a lot of icing last night and couldn't get the doors open on my car. I'm not ready for winter!!! I've got the "3 Fat Chicks" book and would like sometime to peruse it, but we'll have to see how busy it gets when GD gets out of preschool.
You all have a nice day.

Last Night was a wash I had planned to have time to eat before my friends showed up but DH was stuck at work So I had to get myself home and clean. I grabbed a muffin from the fridge and then the rest of the gastronomic night is a blur
but Junk looms in my memory

4 wine gums
2 fin crisps
actual breakfast
2 banana oat muffins with coffee

Trying this new recipe for pumpkin spiced tea:

4 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp ground ginger
2 tsp ground nutmeg
1 tsp cloves
opt: 1 tsp allspice
1 c. non-dairy lite creamer
Mix well. Don't know how much you have to use at one time. Will let you know the outcome.
