I've decided to start blogging my eating adventures. Mostly because cooking has become increasingly boring lately and this will add some excitement to my life. I'm not that girl who shares what she eats because I have an eating disorder. I don't believe in dieting. I think diets, like budgets, are lame and evil. On that financial note, some may consider me cheap and wonder why I can't afford regular food, this has nothing to do with that. Really I am just trying to be more resourceful so my money can be used for more important things. I decided to put cost next to my meals. If it is something I have in the pantry it's free which I realize isn't super accurate but going forward, if I grocery shop, I'll consider those costs.
On my sister's recommendation I stole the title from Carrie Sun's blog on hospital eating .

yes, joy wants dessert

Breakfast: Eggs and some tomatoes from my own garden! ($0)
Lunch: I had a working lunch today with an odd assortment of "co-workers."  After we finished the waitress asked if we'd be getting dessert, my boss's response was he was sure I'd want something.  I mean sheesh of course I did, no one else was getting anything (one guy got coffee so I wouldn't feel bad) so I just got delicious homemade ice cream instead of one of the more extravagant things (like peanut butter ice cream pie).  I would feel like a pig but most of the people were 40+ years older than me so they just think I'm the young, fresh one anyways. ($0)
Dinner: We had a little teaish party for my friend's going away to collage party.  I made orzo salad, and will be eating orzo salad all week. I took the sundried tomatoes and feta from my parents before I flew back.  I mean I would be offended but I too would rather eat "meat candy" (little smokies wrapped in bacon and coated with brown sugar). I brought some cherries too, those I had to buy. ($5.30)

    wait, you flew home with cheese? and then you fed it to people? isn't there some shelf life or refrigeration rules?
