Today was one of those days I almost forgot to breathe.  We are part of a huge (90+ families) homeschooling co-op and today was our last day with the open house.

Breakfast
This is my staple breakfast.  I eat this A LOT.
Eggs
Ezekiel Toast
Tomato

Lunch

Yes that’s a hot dog.  The co-op provided lunch.  I planned on packing mine but forgot.  I was going to eat the hotdog without guilt but then I change my mind.  Why? I asked myself if this was something I really wanted to feed my body and after pausing to think I decided it wasn’t.  If I would have been a Hebrew National I probably would have eaten it.

So  lunch ended up being a meager plate of veggies and strawberries.

Snack
Big bowl of strawberries
String Cheese

Dinner

This was the highlight of my day.  My in-laws took us out to a seafood restaurant  at the beach.

Appetizer
Artichoke Dip on Sourdough
Coconut Shrimp with Curry Sauce
Bit of slaw from the shrimp place

Main course

Brent and I ordered different main courses and split them.  We do this all the time when we can’t make up our minds.

I ate 1/2 of this sesame crusted seared Ahi with a cucumber wasabi sauce.

and

1/2 of this Pacific albacore in a light curry sauce.  The sauce was very similar to the curry dipping sauce for the shrimp but lighter.

I love curry.

Food blogging is new to me.

I keep forgetting to take pictures.

Breakfast
Eggwhite omelet with sundried tomatoes and feta
Ezekiel Cinnamon Raisin Bread
Decaf Coffee
(the decaf is recent b/c one day my body told me it didn’t want caffeine anymore)

Snack

I forgot and by the time I realized I was hungry it was lunch time.  Lucky I didn’t eat the house.

Lunch

Salmon Patty (recipe to come)
Brown Rice with Mushrooms, Pine Nuts, Onion and Fresh Basil.
(Found the recipe in a since forgotten cookbook years ago. I just throw it all together now.)

Mixed Greens with Trader Joe’s Goddess Dressing

Snack

Sundried Tomato Artichoke Dip and Red Peppers
This is one of my older recipes and I always forget about it.  I’m going to try to remember it more often b/c it’s really good especially when I have cravings during PMS.

Dinner

Wild Salmon Fish Tacos With Cabbage and Salsa.

I’m still sort of hungry so I’ll probably go have something to eat before bed.  Probably a cheesestick.  One of my go to lazy girl foods.

Bodybugg update: Yesterday it told me I burned 2142 calories. That included an hour of taekwondo, 5 minutes of snatches, and hours of sitting on the couch.  Hmmm… The jury is still out. I’m hoping it is off by 10% and I really burned 2356 calories.  Either way I was in my calorie range yesterday and today.
