Things I Ate Today

Yesterday around 12:30, I got brunch with Scotty. I ate a platter of stuff from the salad bar, including: grapes, orange melon, hummus, pita, olives, and slices of green pepper. I also got a cup of black/vanilla coffee, thank goodness! I'm noticing, lately, how much fun coffee is. Sort of like Baja Blast, only less conspicuous!
Around 7pm, I ate a little bag of cashews with an organic fruit leather.
Then, around 10pm? I ate Scoops chips with hot salsa.
Today sometime after I woke up, maybe noonish? I ate the last good fruit cup for sale (with strawberries instead of grapes!), a gluten and dairy-free breakfast bar (way too expensive... chocolate and banana), and a Silk vanilla juice box.

Around four, Heaven's gates opened and a HUGE portion of summer tofu (from Thai Gourmet) ascended to fill my joyous stomach. It was the best Thai Gourmet I've ever had, which is really saying something. Afterwards, Lauren and I got Polar Pops.

Around 2am, Cody and I went to the store by Rosie's and spent about an hour wandering around in circles, trying to figure out what we were hungry for. I finally decided on a 4pack of banana cream pie pudding snackpacks. Much tastier than anticipated! Also, Cody gave me one of his Disney Princess fruit snack packs.

An AMAZING (mostly gluten/dairy-free!) day for eating. And life!

Italian Things I Ate Today

Today, I woke up around 11:15 (ma-ma miiia!), and I didn't eat until like 3pm. When I did eat, all I had was a granola bar!! One of those Nature's Valley things, real crunchy?

A few hours later, Sebastian came over and we ate at Rosie's. I spent about ten dollars on myself, somehow. I ate:
-Mozz-erelllla sticks with mar-inaara sauce (ma-ma miiia!)
-A garlic veggie wrap with vegetables and Italian dressing (ma-ma miiia!)
-Cold french fries with ketchup and too much salt...
-A large cup of Hayley's raspberry tea (ma-ma miiia!)
-A pickle spear with no cheese ("no cheese" was an option under daily specials?)

Then, we went to some bizarro art studio that's attached to Sebastian's dorm and has a lot of dirty retro furniture in it. I bought us coffees, obviously. They were disgusting and I added a packet of non-dairy creamer. Ma-ma miiia.

Finally, we went back to Sebastian's house and I ate a cookie dunked in milk. It was not the best thing I've ever tasted, but I'm willing to say it that was the best thing I've ever tasted. Yumm.

Most importantly, today I ate about 8 hours of Italian study. Literally, I studied Italian from about noon to 10pm. It was actually really fun and I feel like I've accomplished something, but if I gained any knowledge from the experience it was probably how to say "Ma-ma miia!" or "GRAT-ziaa!" So, there you have it. Another good day for eating. (Arrivederci!*)


Edit: Now it's about two in the morning, and I'm eating hot salsa with chocolate milk. Truly one of the best combinations of anything, ever. By the end of this, I will have consumed a quart of chocolate milk (that's 4 x 210 calories x 9g protein), and at least half a small jar of Tostitos' hottest salsa. With Scoops chips. Om nom nom!


(*Feel free to use your imagination with my spelling of this word.)

Things I Ate Today

I had a bowl of melon, which was honeydew and honeyrock. There was a bowl of frosting, some corn chips, some... uh.. um.. a piece of dry toast, some cheese gel jalapeno pepper deep fried things from Sonic. Ched 'R' Peppers. They were sooo goood. Let's see. I had those dill pickle pringles. They were pickle pringles. I had chocolate peanut butter fudge from Geauga Lake that was probably about a month old. I had a cherry Coke Polar Pop. Some more of those chips (the pringles, not the corn chips). Some more of that peanut butter fudge. And, uh, let's see, a hot chocolate at Rosie's. And then like three or four or five hot chocolates in the laundry room of Verder. Yeaaahh! The Reese's bar. That was really good. I also had a Hot Mama Pickle. I had chips, pickle chips, and a pickle. I also had a taste of Cody's Big Papa Pickle. His was sweet, mine was spicy. Each pickle was nine servings, and each serving had 22% of the daily value of sodium. I had 198% of my salt today from that pickle. That was a big bowl of frosting.

I decided I'm allergic to gluten and dairy today. Today was my first day of trying not to eat gluten or dairy.

P.s. Cody gave me a gluten-free blueberry muffin, too! It was extremely delicious.

Things I Ate Today

Yesterday after posting, I ate sort of a lot of other food. You know, the kind of stuff that is really gross but you eat it anyway because you're staying up at home, watching SuperNanny for a few hours after midnight to prove that you don't need sleep? Frosting, chocolate, chips, probably some more pie... who knows! I also meant to mention that my mom bought me welcome home candy: a Reece's Big Cup and a reduced box of Lindt dark chocolate truffles! :)

Things I Ate Today:
-Blueberry pie
-Chips
-Milk
-Chocolate
-Grilled cheese
-Tomato soup
-Blueberry pie
-Chips
-Milk
-A ginger chew
-Pretzel bits flavored like honey and mustard
-Bean and cheese/etc. quesadilla from mom
-Frosting
-etc.


"I Love College" by Asher Roth and "Buzzin'" by Shwayze are the Zebra Cakes of hip-hop: artificial, disgusting, unusual... and so darn tasty. (I think I would like them even more if I smoked reefer.)

Pretentious words I've eaten recently

A song to make today taste better: "When the Night Feels My Song" by Bedouin Soundclash

Things I Ate yesterday:
12pm: A hugely disappointing, simultaneously nauseating, bowl of fancy alfredo pasta. With a breadstick and Cherry Coke.
5pm: A hugely appointing fruit salad with a loaded PB&J sandwich which a strange stranger envied audibly.
9pm: A power bar with 19 grams (!!) of protein, with a cow tail (classy!) and hot chocolate. **
10pm: Cheesy fiesta potatoes. * And a crunchwrap with beans instead of meat +guacamole.
11pm: A big, delicious (albeit stale) chocolate cupcake.
113pm: A skim Milk Chug.

Today for breakfast around 10:30, I enjoyed the sophistication of black hazlenut coffee with a somesophisticatedflavor'd scone. I also ate those yogurt-oatmeal clusters that Sebastian got for Easter. They expired a month ago....

At work around 5pm, I ate two ripe organic bananas. (This would probably be more sophisticated if I'd not just spelled b-a-n-a-n-a-s with pop synchopation from 2007.) Then around 9, I ate a few tortillia-type chips with two pieces of Swiss Cheese.

How many things are grosser than Swiss Cheese? I can't think of very many.
I also ate a plate of cole slaw. Another winning dish.

Then, since it's Jere's (28?) birthday, I ate a slice and a half of Amish blueberry pie. It tasted, unfortunately, like a cup of microwaved jelly.

*The cheesy fiesta potatoes glopped all over the table. I screamed, shoved them back onto my styrofoam platter, and licked the table. With class and sophistication.
**I get Swiss Miss without marshmallows because I think the marshmallows are just distracting. I think the hot chocolate lasts longer and is more satisfying when it stands alone!

A good day for eating!

Feelings I Ate Today

Today was quite an emotional smoothie, with Hayley leaving for school tomorrow (in addition to other fruity components)! For breakfast, I ate my second-to-last breakfast bar: almond/frosted rice krispie treat flavor.

For lunch, I ate a great and large fruit salad cup with a chocolate Milk Chug. Did you know that a chocolate Milk Chug contains 400 calories and 18 grams of protein? Neither did I! One bottle is two cups-- one pint-- so it's basically liquid ice cream without a spoon. YUM.

For dinner, I ate half a small jar of salsa with chips, and a cob of corn.

For dinner, I ate a cup of "birthday surprise" icecream from Ambrosia. Then, Sebastian gave me half of his great and awesomely large oatmeal raisin cookie!

After Hayley left, I ate a (1.5 serving) bag of Welch's white grape fruit snacks, half a bottle (1.5 serving) of Fuze(?), and a cute little package of low-fat Fig Newtons. The Fig Newtons weren't as good as I've been anticipating, but they were satisfying. I also ate the rest of that jar of salsa, with accommodating corn chips. But I'm still sad!

Things I Ate Today

Today for brunch (once I finally rolled out of bed), I ate a pluot.

For my next meal around noon, I ate watermelon with corn chips and a cob of corn.

For my next meal around five, I ate a bite of dark chocolate with a juice box of chocolate soy milk. But I didn't get my dollar's worth because the straw was too short!

For my next meal around ten, I ate a portabella sandwich with fries and an AMAZING chocolate cupcake.

A good day for eating!
