Breakfast was just coffee, yogurt (I have added plain, Greek Style into my diet) and a MIM (for the fiber) since I forgot to drink my Milk of Magnesia last night. I bought the liquid MofM because I was too thick headed to realize it came in pill form. Duh!!!! Anyway, it works. And I don't think the farty cereal had anything to do with the cereal. It was the soy. My life is like one continuous chemistry class.
I went along on today's walk in the woods with G & Riley. It's icy in spots and G almost slipped and fell down. After we got home, G suggested a trip into Portland for lunch (at Longhorn) and then a visit to Trader Joe's. We just got back. Lunch was delicious. I had one of the special steaks with a Bourbon glaze and G had steak and shrimp skewers. Our salads and side vegetables were delicious. Even the water was tasty. Then we skipped over to the Mall and I visited William Sonoma and purchased a refill bottle of grapefruit hand soap, two French skillets and a wee cute heavy cream whipper. It works like a tiny salad spinner but has a disc with holes in it that goes up and down thru the cream. Whipping it with little effort on my part. I've been whipping the cream ( and my SF mousse mixes) by hand--and I get very tired and cranky.
Trader Joes was where I bought 4 packages of almond meal. So much less expensive than the health food store. I am going to make some of the recipes using almond and coconut flour instead of wheat flour. More chemistry problems (cookies, brownies or scones). I also bought ruby red grapefruit. The last time I bought them at TJ's they were SO good. I got a small bag of lemons and another of limes. I'm thinking of a ricotta cheesecake with almond meal crust.
It's getting dark outside. Almost time for Downton Abbey. I should run into the office and iron the five or six shirts I have waiting. Then I won't feel so guilty about wasting the day doing no real work. Why do I always feel guilty when I don't do the things I should do, but don't want to do???
