Well it was another "steady-as-she-goes" day, after all. Who'd a thunk it?
This morning had my favorite breakfast, which somehow I hadn't had all week
grits and soft-boiled eggs (2 — eggs, that is)
Beaumont fair trade Columbian coffee, black (2 cups)
and then headed out to church, which is just a short one-block walk to Canal Fest. Now you'd think anyone... anyone who's trying to control/lose weight wouldn't go anywhere near this giant celebration of fried food. But go we did, mainly to check out the annual craft show; and also to have a bit o'lunch.
chicken salad w/cranberries and walnuts on a hard roll (1)
Long Island strawberry tea, unsweetened (about 10 oz. of mostly ice)
There, see? It can be done. Was it health food? Well, no, but I still say "Yay, me!" for finding something that hadn't gone into a vat of hot fat.
After that we came home to the rather unpleasant chore of cutting up a tree which had fallen Friday evening during that storm which had just about everything but sharks. It's all out at the curb now, and I worked up an appetite for a little something before dinner.Simpler Times Pilsner (12 oz.)
Not bad stuff. We picked it up Saturday at Trader Joe's, where they have quite a variety of beers I'd never heard of.
Dinner, was breakfast.
scrambled eggs (one-and-a-half —
that's what you get when you cook three eggs and split them two ways)
turkey bacon — insert joke here — (5 strips)
Trader Joe's potato pancake (one-and a half-ish —
cooked four, split three ways)
orange juice (12 oz.)
and dessert
Trader Jacques Fleur de Sel Caramel (3)

| HGTV Star? Not this guy! |
water (3, 12 oz. each)
Lay's dill pickle potato chips
(not many, thank God!)
I think I may be done with those chips for a while, too. Enough is enough.
Good-night, Seattle!
