Well today was supposed to be a painting day, but I haven't picked up a brush yet! I had to go to the market, and ended up picking up lots of veggies that I already had in the fridge (ugh) so when I got back, I had to cook some of them up. This diet is definately not as easy as grabbing a turkey sandwich or throwing some frozen food in the microwave, but then again, I was eating crap, and being lazy, so this is good for me no matter what. My house could use about 3 days worth of cleaning. Between slowing down a bit after surgery, and then having a cold for 2 weeks that kicked my butt, things have definately piled up. Quite possible there will be a Spirit Thursday here tonight, so I had to pick up a little.
Went to the Post Office and my copy of Crazy Sexy Kitchen came in, by Kris Carr, a cancer thriver.
I'm really hoping she'll have some good recipes that make me really enjoy the food I'm eating. There is one good thing about this diet - I don't like the food well enough to over eat, that's for sure!!! I'm sure I'll grow to like it. But believe me, it's a lot of work to figure out what foods are ok to eat. Our local Price Chopper has very limited organic produce, so then you have to try to figure out which is the least problematic. I cooked up some onions, peppers and mushrooms to add to rice for dinner, and then made some onion kale soup. I'd like to try to figure out a way to freeze them into meal size portions so I can have them on days when I don't have time to cook. But then, you have to worry about which plastic containers are safe - UGH!!!! it goes on and on and on. I've actually stopped using expensive creams on my face too - I now use coconut oil. It actually works well, and is cheaper.
Time for dinner - everyone have a nice evening!
