This is the what i ate, 'Christmas vacation/at my parents house/drank beer on a Monday/didn't document all my eating because I'm on holiday and can't be brought down like that', edition. And, actually, the next couple weeks may be part of this edition, as well. :)
Figure 1. Breakfast: yes, I brought my cereal along so I had an (overflowing) bowl of Kashi GoLean Original mixed with Post Great Grains Crunchy Pecans cereal, 1/2 sliced banana, and almond milk.
Figure 2. Lunch, part one: a massive spinach salad with carrots, grape tomatoes, mushrooms, broccoli, pecans, craisins, hummus, and raspberry balsamic vinaigrette.
Figure 3. Lunch, part two: a slice of whole wheat toast topped with peanut butter and grape jelly.
Figure 4. Lunch, all together now.
Figure 5. Afternoon snack: plain Greek yogurt with Post Great Grains Crunchy Pecans cereal.
Figure 6. Pre-dinner beer: Four in Hand Winter Brew. Good stuff.
Figure 7. Capturing the ambiance of a family dinner.
Figure 8. Dinner: grilled teriyaki pork tenderloin (made by dad), scalloped potatoes (made by mom), and roasted broccoli (made by...me).
Figure 9. Dessert: one of Koko's Black and White Cookies.
And that concludes another What I Ate Wednesday (featuring what I ate Monday, December 19).

Ha! I love it. The holidays are no time to be overly careful about what we eat, much less fastidious about documenting what we eat! That said, your whole day looks delish. I could go for one of those beers right now, actually...
ReplyDeleteMmmm...broccoli :-P That bowl of broccoli is calling to me, lol! And I am seriously craving a bowl of cereal with banana now, so badly - and I've eaten all my bananas and don't have any kashi go lean in england. Boo, lol! :-) Ah well, I'll just have to enjoy it vicariously through your post ;-) hehehe! Enjoy Christmas at home lovely...and you know I am bringing my own cereal home too! :-D xyx
