Breakfast: I was running really late so I had a granola bar (stolen from camp last weekend) and a pear (from Heather but currently in the process of going bad). ($0)
Lunch: At Dr. Graham's again. He made soup but gave the spicy disclaimer so I was able to excuse myself and have the leftover pinwheel things from yesterday. ($0)
Dinner: Oh. my. i. am. my. mother. Bible study was deli theme so I said I would bring pesto mayo (to use up some of my basil plant) and chicken salad because I thought I had all the ingredients I wanted to use. Last night, in an act of organization, I actually defrosted a ziplock baggie of chicken so today I'd be ready to go. Unfortunately when I pulled it out of the bag it didn't look like any piece of chicken I'd ever seen. Maybe pork? The other white meat. I still boiled it to see if it cooked like chicken, it didn't. Then I Googled "pork salad sandwiches." After some internal debate I realized I shouldn't bring mystery meat to a social function. I mean what if anyone asked what it was and my only answer was that I don't know. Fortunately I did have some cooked chicken in the freezer that was easy to defrost and turn into salad. I was going to use Crasins, I don't have any, and used apples instead. I was going to use peanut, I don't have any, and used sunflower seeds instead. I was going to use celery, I don't have any, and used bell pepper instead. Then, for good measure, I added some "seasoning." End result...rave reviews on my delicious chicken salad. Next time...meat salad. ($0)
oh.my.i.am.my.mother. i'm sure she's proud!
