[021] Overeating delicious food

Vegetable pasta
Garlic and onion pasta sauce
Zucchini and carrots, pan fried

Delicious. I may have eaten too much of it. Oops!



This morning we watched disc one of the Lord of the Rings: the Fellowship of the Ring - extended edition.
At dinner time we watched disc two. Extended edition is definitely the way to go.

[020] The title is the first three words in my post

Sweet potato fries...

you are very hard to say "no" to.

WHY MUST YOU BE SO DELICIOUS??!

"Have you ever tasted a rainbow? At Sabre... you will."

I'm currently watching season 6 of the Office.

Don't judge me.

[019] Ramen Noodles and Sauteed Veggies

This was tonight's (second) dinner. Ramen noodles (minus the flavor packet), carrots, onions, zucchini. :D

[018] Breakfast, Shows, and Gaming

Starting my morning off right.

Peach mango green tea, onion bagel with cream cheese, season 5 of The Office, world of warcraft (haha oh me).

On a side note; I work 3p to 9p tonight. I think I'll treat myself to a veggie delite for dinner. :]

[017] Sandwiches and Salads (with my boyfriends nose hovering over)

I just had a yummy sandwich for a snack.

White bread with the crust cut off.
Cucumber slices.
Cream cheese.
Provolone cheese.
I think tomatoes or hardboiled eggs would've been a nice touch.

Last week I made a salad using the following:
Romaine Lettuce
Mozzarella cheese
Cranberries
Cucumbers
Homemade balsamic vinagairette

Shawno approves of this salad.

[016] When produce goes bad

My asparagus went bad.
Some pieces of spinach went bad too. I pulled all the bad leaves out and froze the rest. -flexxx-

In the process of transferring recipe's from one notebook to another. My owl notebook (made from recycled bananas!!!) is going to be home to all my veg friendly recipe's. While my floral notebook will be home to all other recipe's.

Tofu fried rice: round 2. Turned out alright. I still had leftover eggplant from a week ago. I added spinach to the mix this time around. All it all, it was pretty delicious.

We're due for a trip to the grocery store. Grocery shopping is a love/hate thing.

[015] 12 hour shifts, Chili's, and Sleep

I've been at work half of this week. 10, 12, and 14 hour shifts (in that order). The good news is, the store is pretty much 97% stocked and ready for sales. Officially opening tomorrow morning. Tax free weekend. Super neat. I'll be at home, catching up on some zzz's.

Also, having dinner at Chili's with Shawnson, his Mum, and Elsa. I'm curious to see what sort of veg friendly things they have for me to devour. I almost always get chicken when I eat there. Mouth watering, thinking about it.

I think more tofu fried rice is in my future. Because it was definitely super delicious. I might even toss in some ramen noodles with that rice. Who knows. The possibilities are endless.

[014] Pancit made with Ramen Noodles

I made a pretty delicious dinner last night.

-Ramen noodles (put the chicken flavor packets aside)
-Carrots
-Asparagus
-Green onions
-White onions

Prepare the noodles, set aside. Sautee the white onions. Add carrots, asparagus, and green onions. Cook while occasionally stirring for about 5 minutes. Add noodles. Done :D

I also had some pan fried eggplant. I simply sliced a small sized eggplant, pan fried each slice in olive oil. Added seasonsings; soy sauce, garlic and onion powder, and pepper.

I didn't finish it (it was a lot of eggplant!). I'm planning on having that tonight with rice.

[013] Cucumber in my Sushi

I made sushi. Booooya! At first I only used cucumbers. That was last night's snack. Today I used cucumbers and cream cheese for lunch. They were both super delicious. Starting small on the fillings. Working my way up to the big stuff.

These are the cucumber rolls I made the first time. The seaweed sheets were half sheets. I worked with what I had.

[012] Tofu, Baked Goods, and Roasted Garlic

We bought tofu!

Picked up some of the basic ingredients for sushi as well. I've got a busy day of baking today. Spice cake, banana bread, and peanut butter cookies. Tonight for dinner I'm making roasted garlic for our italian bread. That's going to be served with some sort of pasta. I was thinking making jumbo shells and stuffing it with cheeses. All of it sounds yummy to me. :D

[011] Yukon Golds

Yesterday I had a yummy sandwich!

I took a yukon gold potato, sliced thick round cuts and browned each one on each side. I browned them in olive oil and added a few seasonings; basil, parsely, sea salt, and onion powder. I took one slice of potato bread, spread olive oil mayo on it, one slice of provolone cheese, two slices of the browned potatoes, another slice of provolone, another slice of bread with mayo, another slice of provolone (haha I like cheese), pickles, and another slice of bread with mayo to top it off. It was more than delicious. Could've used some bbq sauce or something.

I'm looking for recipe suggestions. Our grocery shopping trip will be within the next couple days, if not today.

[010] Day one, Day two, Day one

Yesterday was Day One of my vegetarianism. We were on our way home from a weekend wedding in Vermont. I had a fish sandwich from Burger King for lunch. Pescatarian lunch on day one, that's alright!

Today is not only Day Two, but also my first day of work. I'm leaving in a few minutes. We're building the store up this week. Hooray for mall pop-ups? Bleh.

Sipping my morning coffee. I wonder what I'll have for lunch this afternoon... hmmm.
