Local Blogger logs into her blog for the first time in a month and you won't believe what she wrote!

Let's see, what to put in this empty space?  I have no idea. I feel like I should be creating content and not just blathering on about me. Research interesting articles! Post photos! Entertain the masses!

Fortunately the masses are the six people who read this blog and the three people who might "like" it on Facebook.

LET'S TALK ABOUT FOOD.

I'm still doing that Game-On! diet thing. I haven't lost much weight this session, but I feel pretty good! In fact, I'm planning my meals right now. Here's what I'm eating!


  • Breakfast: Cheesy Omelette with sauteed scallion, garlic, romaine, mushrooms. Cup of low-fat milk.
  • Mid-morning snack: String cheese with sliced apple and cashews. (Half of the time I have ricotta cheese instead, since I've already brought a huge container of it with me to work and it's so easy to have four huge spoonfuls before putting it back in the fridge on my break.
  • Lunch: Mashed Sweet Potato mixed with sliced cucumber, ricotta cheese and cashews. (I'm so lucky to have both a microwave and a refrigerator at my job.)
  • Afternoon snack: Sweet red bell pepper stuffed with cold chicken, sliced tomato, low-fat cheese and avocado. (Only red bell peppers will do.  Green are too bitter, and what's the point of orange or yellow?  Get your lycopene on!).
  • Dinner: Flatout Veggie Pizza (although this sort of is more like "veggie cheese and crackers" than pizza.  It's my favorite thing. Ever so crunchy. Thanks, Liz!!!)


I'm trying really hard to get a cup of vegetables at 4/5 of my meals.   I just don't have room in my stomach for two cups at two meals so I spread my four cups of vegetables out.

And on the days I feel like being super naughty I like to make super-processed junk food that's horrible for you like these miniature chicken pot pies made with Grands biscuit dough, soup, veggies, cheese, chicken, and herbs:



I changed up the recipe a little by not bothering to thaw the frozen veggies and adding pretty much every seasoning in my pantry and some shredded cheese. These are extremely fattening and good and I can't be trusted around them.

If I could have eaten every single one of these, I would have.

But then I had leftover biscuits and tried to make little egg pies with those.  And then the egg ran out as the biscuits puffed up and now I have stinky burned egg at the bottom of my oven. And the intact eggs tasted like plastic on top of the delicious biscuits. So don't do that.

But you should totally cut your own hair. I cut mine up from mid-waist to my armpits recently. It looks really good, much better than in this video.



I cleaned it up a little bit after that so it's much shorter. I've been rocking a sort of Jenny Lewis (NOT Zooey Deschanel as that would involve mega hair extensions.  Maybe Zooey circa 2007-ish) haircut for about a year that I got sick of. I prefer my hair short. I want to cut it up to my chin, actually, but I like being able to tie it up into buns and ponytails.


That is all.
