Party food etc.

Saturday.

My morning was dominated by a large cake... actually as sort of difficult decorating job and I by about noon my head was swimming and had to eat something that was relatively easy to to take a bite,  out it down and return in a few minutes..so oatmeal was out.. had a PB&J on whole wheat light on the J and had some coffee.

X's mom picked us up at 4:30 , at 4 I ate a half a stale cookie with magical powers..which hit very hard about 45 minutes later thank you very much.

We go to the party @ 7ish..and I was pretty hungry. I really don;t think I can properly catalog but lets try: ( this was within 4 hours, and I did try not to mindlessly shove food in my mouth)

5 scoops of mango salsa w/ chip (It was really really good)
2 grilled chicken skewers, 1 with dab of blue cheese
10 pieces of celery
5 mini carrots
3 scoops guac w/ chip
3 scoops cheese dip w/chip
1/3rd of a keilbasa w/ sauerkraut (it kind a sucked)*
1 scoop spinach dip on a butterfly cracker*
1/4 cup baked ziti*
3 small thin slices of cheddar cheese w/ mustard
3 bites of my cake
handful gum drops
possibly a bottle of red wine
1 shot of expresso vodka

* I ate these to be polite because the people who made them asked me what I thought and I had to tell them it was good, also I was drunk

hours and hours later@ 4:30 am after a long journey home , much drama X woke me up with a cheesesteak  which I ate then passed out again.


Sunday.


Breakfast;

Grapefruit ( I have perfected my technique and now get almost all the pieces out and about half cup juice!! secret is a sharp paring knife)

I have been dying for an egg sandwich..so I made one like this:

1 tsp butter
2 slice whole wheat
1 egg
1 thin slices cheese
1 pieces canadian bacon ( BTW cannot believe how low the calorie count is for this stuff!!)
 Heat the bacon in the pan w. pam
fried the egg
put the ham egg & bacon on the bread and toasted them in the pan with the butter like a grilled cheese.

It was v. satisfying and had I not been being fat conscious I would have used reg bacon and at least 3 times the butter, two eggs and more cheese


No lunch

@ 7ish handful green grapes

Dinner ( x made Dinner!!)

four mini potatoes roasted  garlic & shallots in @ 1 tbs olive oil
Brussel sprouts (see above)
@ 4-5 oz lean steak grilled on THE GREEN PAN!!! with about 1 tbs spoon on sauce made from brown bits from teh pan ( fat poured off)  reduced wine, veg stock garlic , wostershire & hoisin

2 glasses wine

1/4 cup chocolate sorbet, 2 small bites caramel cone Ice cream.


now have to eat some thing...think I'm going to have a turkey sandwich with sprouts for breakfast.
