Oct. 10 Menu and Events (Day 44)

Hello you Wednesday Witty Whittling Women and Men!

Today I am goofing around in the kitchen because it has been too long since I’ve had the opportunity. I am having such a blast! I can smell the… wait, I can’t tell you yet that I’m re-configuring some of my classic favorites, can I? Well, I just did, so stay tuned! (There’s a hint at left)

Remember to enter to win the amazing Blendtec Total Blender and the Twister Jar for one lucky winner worth over $550. It really means so much to have companies reaching out to me and spoiling you, too, and the best way to show them you’re paying attention is to enter to win. You can earn two entries, and you have until Friday for two chances to win the most amazing blender I have ever seen! Enter here!

Now what I had yesterday… First of all, here’s the plan I’m following and here is the introduction post to the Mid-Year Resolution Challenge. While you look at what I’m doing, be sure to do your thing. I am thrilled to give some ideas, but I’m not the person you should necessarily look to for dieting advice (I’m not a paid nosh-a-titian). I am, however, here with you to cheer you on when you’re so skinny you will have to watch slipping through the cushions of your couch.

Be sure to subscribe for updates by adding your email right (in the sidebar) or through Feedburner in the title bar up top!

You can also click the tab up top that says Mid-Year Resolution for the daily play-by-play and to see what I’m doing. Whee!

Wednesday, October 10

I ate this:
Breakfast: 1/2 of a cheese biscuit
Lunch: bacon + 1 cauliflower bread stick[link]
Dinner: 4 cauliflower bread sticks + slice of  cauliflower pizza

Exercise: Cooking and cleaning my kitchen

Notes: I am really tired today. I took a nap and I’m ready for round two! (Someone needs to tell me it’s almost 8pm)…

What I learned:

Never ever ever assume there’s not gluten or wheat in something unless you research.

I went for a foot-long coney at Sonic last night with a few tater tots (me and Napoleon Dynamite), and when I went to bed I felt terrible. Finally after an hour tossing and turning, I checked their website and there’s wheat and gluten in their chili.

Sonic, I am so so disappointed.

In your chili! *slow head nod, eyes slightly cast down* In your chili.

(This is the same kind of guilt speech I give my kids occasionally. Is it working? More no-no face needed?)

Thankfully, I have this recipe for my own chili-covered cheese tots that contain no gluten at all–or even potatoes for that matter.

Whew! I won’t have to make that same mistake again.
