What's For Dinner?

Never mind what's for dinner today, what's for lunch? I'm already STARVING! Well, not starving because I'm sure my body could live off its stored fat for at least a few months, but I'm having a hungry day today. Probably because we ate pizza for dinner (but we did have a salad with it) last night and my carb starved stomach went OH YEAH! PIZZA! and now wants more. So, no carbs today, but I am going to eat a package of Kraft 100 calorie cheese bites. You do have to stop at only one of the little packets though, you can't eat the whole bag of little packets all at once. Even if you really want to because you are just so damn hungry today.

I had originally bought the frozen DiGiorno pizza for super bowl Sunday because it was only $4.00 and I really like pizza even though I'm not supposed to eat it, but after the frozen fried chicken during the game and Keith eating chips and crap all afternoon we didn't have dinner that night. So, since I didn't feel like cooking the chicken that I had thawed out- no surprise there, I never feel like cooking- we had the pizza last night. But with a salad.

I was wandering around the grocery store yesterday, something I seem to do a lot of these days because I'm bored and I'm hungry and I get my exercise by riding the bike to the store and I keep hoping that they will have some new wondrous low carb delicious something to eat and I usually need something anyway, something that I forgot to get during the big weekly trip to the store. So, I'm looking at the meat case which is really kind of disgusting anyway and what do I see but a package of Cow Feet. What the hell? Who eats cow feet and how gross does that sound? What's for dinner honey? Cow Feet. Yum. And that's exactly what the label on the package said, too. Cow Feet.

Now, I've heard of pickled pigs feet and have actually seen pickled pigs feet and why anyone would eat that I don't know, but for some reason Cow Feet sounds even worse than pig feet.

No, we are not having Cow Feet for dinner. Ever. Even if I were starving. Which I am. The cheese bites have been inhaled and I am still hungry.

Hungry Hungry Kitties

This morning I slept in until 7:30 and as soon as I opened the bedroom door, there was a stampede of kitties running into the bedroom, turning around as soon as they realized that we weren't hoarding food in there, then following me down to the kitchen. Feed us, feed us, we are STARVING!!

They were indeed starving, the dry food bowls were totally empty, so I started filling those up, then got out the canned food and started filling up those bowls. Crunch crunch, slurp, slurp. It's really rare to see all six cats eating together, no 'mom, he's looking at me', or 'I don't like this', or 'do I HAVE to eat this?'. Even shy Harri jumped up on the counter for her bowl. She usually waits until everyone else has eaten and then slinks in to see what's left. I sometimes try to feed her in a separate room because she is just so fearful and timid, but usually one of the other cats comes in to see what's in Harri's bowl, thinking she's got something special.

So, everybody ate while I made the coffee, then all went to their respective corners for their after breakfast nap, since that eating thing is so exhausting, don't you know.

Then, it was time for a little vacuuming and cat box cleaning. If I'm really bored I just drag the vacuum behind me around the house so that I can watch the cats run away from the big black sucking monster thing. (Not really, I usually gently carry them out of whatever room I'm going to vacuum so they don't freak out.)

Keith slept late, so now he's making me some breakfast (he makes a mean omelette, something that I really really don't enjoy attempting), so in a few minutes we'll have a nice breakfast in a freshly vacuumed house, with content fat well fed kitties at our feet.

Okay Something Happier

Yay! I just hit 4000 sales in my supply shop!!

We did go out to dinner Monday night to celebrate the 2000 sales in the jewelry shop. We went to The Roadhouse which we like for the peanuts. I had salad, which they make with lots of tomatoes, bacon, and cheese on top, and the tri tip with some kind of bourbon sauce, and the baked sweet potato with cinnamon and brown sugar and lots of butter on top.
It was good. And the leftovers for lunch the next day were good, too. And they serve hot homemade rolls with honey butter. MMMM!
Okay, now I'm hungry!
