Breakfast:
* Muesli: half a pound of no fat yoghurt, one espresso cup of rolled oats, one nectarine

Second Breakfast:

This meal was unplanned. But a very hard workout after the first breakfast had made me very hungry. So I went to my employer's cafeteria and binged on --

* one bagel -- half of it topped with vegetable-and-herbs cream cheese, the other half with peanut butter
* one croissant

Lunch

* pot roast with ratatouille

Dinner

* not hungry, so I skipped it again.

Breakfast - peach, blueberry, banana smoothie with whey protein powder and cranwater.

After today (more on that tomorrow) I'm having trouble remembering yesterday.

Ok, it's coming in focus.

Crumpet with sliver of butter

Iced coffee/splash of l/f chocolate milk to top it, plus a repeat of that

last bowl of that lentil/veg/rice/sausage soup

some limeade with the next glass of sparkling water

bowl of linguine with garlic/shallots/tomatoes, and I forget what else, described earlier

5 green olives stuffed with almonds

3 chocolate milk and rums, gaggles of ice

Joe Nation, that was a sloppy takeoff of my favorite recipe for pasta with clam sauce, long since written out in several places on the Olden A2K.. which I may be able to find when Search is activated.

The original is much better, Craig Claiborne's Spaghetti with Anchovy and Clam Sauce from the NYT International Cookbook, 1971. He uses real cherrystone clams, adds, among other things, fresh rosemary and parsley... and no doubt better white wine.

(amazon link -
http://www.amazon.com/New-York-Times-International-Cookbook/dp/B000OEKUB6/ref=sr_1_2ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1218846239&sr=8-2
(new and used from 2.79) - not the old A2k amazon link which I don't see yet.
Uh, I didn't see the recipe as far as I looked on google.

But, what I learned from that is the leftover juice and clams have been so good, they're good even on toast.

Ok, I'll be quiet, back to business.

One more post on it and I'll vanish...
it's a big favorite dish for Dyslexia.

Osso: yum. I can get Cherrystones right off the dock at the market down the street. Fresh everyday. (Next Sunday will be a good day)
Um.
Yesterday.

Bowl of cereal w/banana and milk.

Snack;
Bought at the Union Square Farmer's market
1 no fat apple roll
1 weird ginger chocolate cookie (I ate every crumb)

Lunch

2 slices of ham
Big peach
Last banana in the bunch, very much on it's last moments, just like I like them.

Travel day yesterday...

Breakfast - egg mcmuffin at OHare (threw away the top of the english muffin)

Lunch - fresh mozzarella and tomato salad, corn chowder at Panera Bread with Izzie, little S, Eva, and Son of Eva

Road snack - 1/2 bag Kosher Dill chips

Evening -- who had time to eat with all the yabbering going on around here? We munch on this and that. Ohhhhhhhh, I've discovered that something called "clotted cream" is absolutely delicious!!! Who knew?

I've always wondered about clotted cream...


So, yesterday, so good..

first, a homemade quesadilla (small flour tortillas) with cheddar cheese, tinned black olive slices, medium hot new mexican salsa)

later, rolls eyes, Veal Marsala (sliced crimini mushrooms/lots of black pepper on that) and perfect roast potatoes (I swear, soft inside, crunchy outside), and herbed julienned carrots and parsnips, with a fat glass of Dolcetto. Oh, and I ate the entire dish of vanilla gelato.

In between and later, ginger ale, fizzy waters, oh, four green olives with almonds.



Today, the opposite...
The to-go packet of veal marsala, carrots and parsnips, potatoes, for brunch,

and another quesadilla of like description, toward evening.

Working on a dilute bourbon and chocolate milk, on my way to fizzy water.

Atta boy!

Calories were a little high but sodium was good and low. And yes, I had salmon twice. I think the homemade (dinner) was better than the restaurant leftovers.
