Ran out of time. Ate this on the go. I was NOT in the mood for either and gagged both down, but they did the trick.

coffee and cake. yes, please.

Dinner

split a mushroom/swiss turkey burger and small onion ring & added a few grapes

Night Tea

Breakfast

chobabi simply strawberry yogurt with chocolate strawberry love crunch granole & sliced strawbs. Not filling enough, but looks pretty.

Snack

I don't remember if I had lunch or a more savory snack or not, but I know I left the office early to work from home midday and my brother wanted a milkshake, so I stopped for a fro-yo for myself

Lunch/Dinner

Pretty much picked at this all afternoon/early evening. Best grilled chicken sandwich ever, side salad x 2, one of the best pasta salads

I feel like I ate more that night, but no pics so idk.

(Last) Saturday

Breakfast

This was SOOOOOOOOOOOO good. Homemade cheesy garlic sourdough bread topped with sauteed mushrooms & fried egg + strawberries and coffee. MMMMM. Needs to be a repeat fo' sho'.

Lunch

Half a Jimmy John's tuna. JJ still hurts my stomach a lil (think it's the bread?), but less so when I just ate half.

Snacktastic

fro-yo...they didn't have cookies & cream or red velvet tho. RUDE! Got mostly plain, a little chocolate, and a sample of their new (gross) berry greek + a few chocolate strawberry marshmallows, a few strawbs, and some coconut shreds

Dinner

this x 2. My brother and I couldn't decide if we wanted naan tikka masala indian pizzas or orange chicken, so we had both. Thanks Joe the Trader.

More Food

Late night pepper popcorn, mango Kombucha, and apple-flavored sparkling water

(Last) Sunday

Brunch

A friend was supposed to meet up for brunch, but didn't make it last minute, so my parents and I had a small feast. Pictured you see croissants (pumpkin + mini regular + these sweet flavored croissant-like pastries with a foreign sounding name), overcooked nitrite-free black forest bacon, cheese plate (brie, goat, aged white cheddar) with crackers and almonds, fruit plate (grapes, apples, tangerine segments, and strawberries..then later...canteloupe) with a cream cheese/vanilla greek yogurt-based fruit dip, deviled eggs, spinach/swiss quiche, and coffee. We put away the champagne glasses for another time, but did have some grapefruit juice in lieu of mimosas.

Snack

So beautifully pictured, I know. Thank you, thank you. My mom was going out of town and my brother isn't so good about fending for himself, so my Dad and I bought him a lot of foolproof frozen chemical shitstorms to eat (nevermind that I was cooking dinner every night). In looking for that nightmare "food" (aka foodlike substances), I caved and bought a smart ones or whatever the brand was of my own.....buffalo chicken style. I used to buy spinach/feta or pizza pockets like this all the time from some heath brand before I even cared about eating clean. This is no clean snack, but it wasn't horrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrible as far as ingredients were concerned. Ok, I'll stop talking now.
