Day 59 - Back on Track and My Taste Buds are Changing

Quick stop in today to say "HI!"

I'm back to work full time again, after a few weeks between publications. It was a nice respite as I had expenses covered so had no worries.

My taste buds are changing. I'm noticing that some food that I used to enjoy just doesn't appeal anymore. And foods that previously didn't even catch my attention are now calling to me from the rack in the grocery. Today I had to go by Walmart for a few things from the grocery department and as I was leaving, I said, "Oops! Not done yet!" Headed into the produce department for a fresh head of cabbage and a head of cauliflower. These two things have become a FAVORITE! And I love roasting them in the oven and eating them in healthy ways. I'm still not a big one for raw veggies, but that may come in time.

Today I made a lunch of grilled shrimp (oven-top with this little grill thing that I bought at a Home Show years ago), sauteed baby Portabello mushrooms and steamed asparagus. Fabulous! Here's a picture of the lunch and it was as yummy as it looks!


Fun - see our Peacock Mascot there getting right into the middle of things! Of course I had to post it on Facebook and as now I'm working up in the mountains (I live on the valley floor) I posted that I had lunch at CynthiaG's Flatland Cafe! Friends got a kick out of it and even funnier still, one of my friends (she's a little naive) asked me where the restaurant is! We frequently meet for lunch, so she probably thought it'd be a good place to go! All in all, it was a compliment.

Well, thanks for listening to me go on a bit about my yummy lunch. Until next time...
