Breakfast: This delightful breakfast included 2 scrambled eggs and 3 pieces of turkey sausage. I am pretty impressed by my willingness to cook in the morning. If I ever could keep this up during the school year, I'll be golden! That would require me to get up earlier. eek! We'll see. :-)
Lunch: I have grown to enjoy this salad. This again, is my complete salad. Lettuce, chick peas, cucumbers, sunflower seeds and shredded cheddar with red wine vinegar. I don't really need the seeds these days, but I gotta use the up. Once I finish them, I probably will not get them again. Unless someone can tell me that they are REALLY good for me and I should continue to get them for some reason. I also had that delicious spicy chicken patty. This is a really tasty lunch. Can you believe I'm really saying this? :-)
Snack: Behold . . . . . The Tastykake chocolate frosted cupcake. Every so often, I find these on sale: 2 boxes for $4. I get them . . . . . for the kids, right? :-) Actually, I've done really well with it this time. I only ate 1 of the first box of 12 cupcakes. Tough to see them every day and not eat them, but I've survived. Today, I eat this glorious cupcake, which by the way, is MUCH better coming out of the fridge.
Snack #2: 6 crackers, eaten 2 at a time with peanut butter in the middle. This snack makes me feel like I'm getting away with something. I'm sure it's not the most perfect snack ever, but there are much worse things to eat, I think. The difference between me eating this now and me eating this in June: in June, I'd sit my fat ass on the couch with a jar of Peanut Butter and a sleeve of crackers and shovel 'em down like they are potato chips. Betcha can't eat just 15. . . . . . But I control it much better now.
Dinner: HOMEMADE PIZZA NIGHT! My intention was to try making my own dough. That didn't work out at all due to timing, so we just got our doughs at Marios in Norwood, as usual, and made some amazing pizza. The kids each partially sauced and topped their pizzas and I made the other one. This was was one of my favorite pizzas I have made to date. Just came out really well! So happy with my pizza making progress. This was just done in the home oven. I'll cook another night in the outdoor pizza oven.

Late night: My buddies Mike and Barry invited me out to the new sports bar in Cresskill which is called "Scotty's." I've been really wanting to try it out, so this worked out well. Once the kids were in bed, I went out for a little bit. Had 2 beers and no food. Was a nice hang and a very nice bar. Highly recommend that you check it out! Sorry to not give much more info here, but this was 5 days ago and I'm just catching up on my writing, so I'm gonna move on at this point!
Weekend update coming next!
