Busy Life

I'm sorry I've been so remiss about posting lately. I'm trying to hold down a couple or three jobs, sell a house and not go crazy in the mix, so it's been difficult to find time and energy to write, to cook, and to eat well.

I am still trying though. This weekend I wore a dress that hasn't fit for two years. Yea! It's cute and retro and I bought it at a hip flea market in the East Village in New York about five years ago. I am glad I can fit my fat ass into a dress at last. Cheers for small victories.

The money situation is getting so desperate, it's difficult to go out and buy fresh produce when I want and need it, so a lot of times, these days, meals are a hodge podge of what I have left because I need to reduce the number of trips to the grocery store. I only go when I've ran out of nearly everything and then I don't go again until I run out again.

Here's a breakdown of the past couple of days though:

Yesterday, I had a veggie sandwich from Quiznos, courtesy of Hillary, with an unsweet tea. For dinner, I made baked cod with a little olive oil and seasoning with baked veggies (eggplant, tomatoes, mushrooms) and baked purple sweet potato. It was pretty yummy. Not so bad except for the two glasses of wine and three beers I had during and afterwards. I'm working on that though. I'll try not to tonight.

So far today I've had a veggie Italian sausage hotdog with homemade coleslaw and mustard, a handful of pecans and chocolate chips, and an orange. I'll keep you posted on later.

I kind of overdid it on the fish tacos this weekend, but at least I had the grilled ones and not the fried :-)
