What about Sunday???

Sunday was such a busy day I forgot to do my blog. For breakfast, I had a TLC bar $.33 and two bananas $.38. And then I got invited to breakfast - feta omelet, home fries, bacon, tastes even better when you don't have to cook! I provided the bacon ($2.50) Then I went for a trail ride and worked up a good hunger but quickly forgot about it until dinner because I did have two breakfasts.

For dinner, I finished off my Ray's the Steak steak on a Costco roll $.80 with some sweet potato fries $1.10 We ate al fresco, it was a beautiful night.

Finally Friday & another Birthday Celebration

So I'm still battling something so not very hungry. Breakfast was a TLC bar. Target had a great deal so it was $2 for a box of 6 or $.34 each.

Lunch was on my office (again, I swear this is not normal) from Devon and Blakely and I got chicken noodle soup to help battle the beast within. If I had taken a photo it would have looked like yellow water in a cup so I didn't and I won't be ordering it again so just use your imagination.

Dinner was the highlight and I was hungry by then. After a stop at the Galaxy Bar (reminds me of my first car a Galaxy 500), we wandered over to Ray's the Steaks. We had heard the crab bisque was amazing and I accidentally ordered a bowl instead of a cup. It was a beautiful accident! The soup was velvety cream with huge lump crab meat and soft under notes of sherry. $8.99 I ordered filet mignon black and blue. I meant charred on the outside and rare inside (with added blue cheese on top) but we had a miscommunication and it was covered in black pepper with blue cheese sauce and rare inside. And look at that blue cheese-yikes. No matter, it was delicious but the bisque had filled me up and I could only eat two bites plus some of the mashed potatos, spinach and mac and cheese. Sides stood on their own. (Skip the bread.)  Since we were there to celebrate my brother's birthday, I snapped some photos of his food and my sister's but not every one's that would have been too much :) My steak was $31.99 It tastes so much better than it looks! Food photography is an art.

Monday, Monday

So trudging to work after the weekend.

 Breakfast was a smoothie- banana $.19 (way to compete with Walmart, Target), ice and greek yogurt, mango flavor- $1.25 plus the Kashi TLC bar $.60

Lunch was a turkey, cheese sandwich from Devon and Blakely but I was in a meeting and didn't feel I could capture- next time! It was free!! It wasn't what I wanted, I requested a different turkey sandwich, but it was still good.

I'm not reporting snacks, but thinking I should. Today, I go ta free sample- chocolate mousse with creme brule and cookie from Co.Co. as I was walking to my sister's office. It came with a fancy silver plastic spoon in a square plastic box and it was delicious. Maybe I should consider going to Co.Co.

For dinner, I was feeling like I had gone a few too many meals without seeing a vegetable so I ordered cheap Chinese. Hunan vegetables- extra spicy, low oil from Eastern 88. $6.95 Tastes better than it looks.

Tuesday after Labor day- is there a worst day to labor?

Morning started out bright and dreary, breakfast was a shake (banana .22, greek yogurt 1.25 and some ice cubes) $1.47 and a fiber bar (TLC) .60 = $2.07 I highly recommend the Hamilton Beach shake blender, the top becomes a cup, which fits right in your cup holder of your car- brilliant!

Lunch was beans and rice (see yesterday's cooking un-adventure) but a bigger version so we'll call is $2.00 (See yesterday for photo and times it by 2)

Good so far but what will dinner bring?
