Food

...Its the first of the month so cash your checks and get up...If we got the food, you know it's the 1st of the month...

Bone thugs ain't lyin. Man I think I lose 10 lbs easy at the end of each month, cuz we constantly run out of funds and food at the end of the month. And I am always forced to be my most creative with what I find left in the pantry. And even though I want to holler, "we're out of food!" I always find one more can of this that or the other and I make it work. And I refuse to say we're out of food until my cupboards are bare. So when the first comes we are at del taco's/jacknthebox's/el pollo loco's door like the homeless in a soup line.

Course nowadays, and I should make this correction, you can find us at Veggie Grill or Leonora's cuz we are working the veggie-tarian path. My hubby more than me. Blood pressure went sky high after he came off his 2nd 60+day fast and he gave up the chicken totally. I'm just moral support. I eat what he wishes he could eat! Checking the sodium content. Lol.

But today for the first time, I didn't miss food all that much. I was all set to go on a pizza fest week and never made it past day one. And I can totally tell the difference when I overeat. And can hardly stand eating fast food. I'd rather sit down at a restaurant, eat a veggie meal and go home completely satisfied rather than stuffed like the turkey for thanksgiving. And even better, I'd rather just go home and cook. I can eat all the goodies (definition: avocados, tomatoes, spinach, mushrooms, etc.) I want to that way.

Food, why do you challenge me so...
