Day 49

Today I really didn't eat very much, it was one of those wait-til-I-get-to-work days.  I couldn't decide what I wanted to eat, but someone ordered chicken nuggets, so that's what I decided to eat, along with fries.  It really wasn't the best of ideas, but it was okay. Greasy food really isn't very good for you though :S.

Day 48

So today was fun.  I had my lovely bowl of cereal (I know, amazing we still have milk huh?  I yelled at the family about it, so I think they've cut down a bit, I hope I'm not a control freak :S  ) after that I met up with two favorite sisters (Cox females if you don't know) and hung out with them for lunch while doing our math homework. I had a nice soft taco that included hamburger, lettuce, cheese and olives.  They only let me choose three toppings, but I'm not a big tomato eater, so it was fine. I also had a chocolate milk, which was super yummy.

My class (creative writing of course) distributed a piece of strawberry wafer cookie, which wasn't very good but was well devoured along with two chips ahoy cookies which were even more well devoured.

I got home and snuck (I know it's not a word, but you all know what it means) three pieces of fudge which were ama-za-zing.

Off to work where I devoured a flat iron steak with a salad and some green beans a long with two crossants.  All in all a very big eating day for me. :P

Day 47

So, today, after I had my lovely bit of raisin bran I found myself picking Jules up from school and searching for a hot fudge brownie sundae. Now apparently, people in Sanpete are ignorant and have no idea what these things are.  The name itself just doesn't give enough away to put two and two together.  I think it's the term "sundae" and "brownie" that they just don't understand.  For fear that I was going crazy because the two fast food restaurants in town gave me quizzical looks when I attempted to order said hot fudge brownie sundae I decided to google it to make sure it wasn't something I just dreamed up once. 

 

No I wasn't.  There are myriads of images like this that appeared.  Why doesn't Sanpete know what they are?  Also to note, you know something's wrong with your town when they've never heard of it....sad really.  the saddest thing is that since I couldn't find anywhere that served these I was forced to compromise. Luckily Randi gave me a couple mint candies in celebration of St. Patty's Death, which held me over until I could

find myself at the local candy shop, purchasing clover shaped fudge and minty goodness.  All in all, it hit the spot, though a hot fudge brownie sundae would have been nice. 

After that I went to work, realized I was completely starving and took it upon myself to create one of my favorite Panini sandwiches.  It was truly delicious. 

Followed closely by a small piece of prime rib (I had to scrape it off the side cause it was a little overcooked) and some green mashed potatoes we concocted in honor of the great Irish day

I kept thinking it was mint ice cream, so it was a bit of a downer.  Funny how looks affect everything, including poor mashed potatoes. Isn't it also funny that chocolate kinda looks like pooh now and than?  Anyway, happy Green day!  (not the band)

.

Day 46

So, now that we have some more food at home I have been able to enjoy my daily bowl of raisin bran.  It's healthy and delicious, and good for you too! :P  Yeah, I love my raisin bran.

Along with milk Nathan also purchased cheese, another staple in our home. After eating my lovely bowl of cereal and running off to class, other than a cute cookie my teacher gave me shaped like a little elf, I realized late at night that I was starving and decided to make myself a quick snack.

This involved a tortilla, cheese and a microwave.  30 seconds later my snack wasn't quite as fulfilling as I intended, so another 30 seconds later I had another one.  I should have given my stomach time to realize that it was in fact hungry, but unfortunately, I didn't care.
So I made two grilled cheese sandwiches and devoured them wholeheartedly.  It was a good night.

Day 45

Hanging out with friends really brings the worst out of my diet. 

Yesterday my little brother, Le Le and Tamirrah and Jules and her little friend Adelaide all went out for lunch.  It was really quite fun and involved a DELICIOUS chicken wrap from Miller's, ( I think I've been having miller's cravings lately) and a maple bar.  Yum! I love maple bars.  Jules finished off my chicken wrap for me and Nate finished my maple bar but I had enough to find great fulfillment in both.

Sadly, my fun didn't end there. After lunch we went home and did a lot of homework (which I was very grateful for) but then we decided to hang out and watch Brotherhood of the Wolf. Of course to watch a movie it's an inherent need to find munchies.  This is what I found at the local gas station:

And

and to wash it all down:

I'm surprised my tummy doesn't hurt.  But, I didn't actually finish any of the bags all by myself.  That's the point of everyone getting munchies.  Which means I also had some jalepino cheetos from Tamirrah and a handful of popcorn in my art class earlier this week. :P

Day 44

Today, after I picked up Jules from school we decided to wander yonder and found ourselves at Miller's, a little bakery that has some interesting food at it. Jules and I both made and order and I ended up with a very good soft taco that looked something (but not quite as good as) the picture above.  It was really yummy, and extremely feeling. I also had two bites of Juliah's donut which had a berry frosting and sprinkles.  It was also very yummy as well as nice too look at which I think is important when it comes to your food.  Lucky for me the taco was filling, I didn't have to eat anything else for the rest of the day :P

Day 43

    As I've mentioned, Sundays are our lazy days.  It's the only day of the week that I don't either have work or school and therefore we have a lot more time to do things or to do nothing at all which the case may be. This Sunday, Jules and I decided to watch Naruto, a Japanese Anime.  Naruto is an interesting main character who has an intense love for Ramen, so of course while watching episodes of it I found myself very hungry for Ramen noodles.  In Japanese culture their Ramen usually includes other foods such as eggs or sausage. I'm  not much of a fan of eggs, but I do like sausage, so when I made our ramen I cooked up some polish sausage first and then put it in the ramen.  Somehow my tummy didn't really like the mixture, and luckily I stopped while I was still ahead because it was really not very good.  Maybe it was the beef seasoning.  I'm not sure but it was kinda gross.  Let this be a lesson to you all:  ramen + sausage + beef seasoning = stomach ache. 
     After that I decided to eat something that my tummy wanted - the remainder of the girl scout thin mint cookies.  They were very good and I added a side of jelly beans. It was a pretty laid back food day :P
