covid diet

So when we 1st all ran out to the grocery store thinking we be quarantine for a bit I think a lot of people use the approach of a snow day a storm day

Let's by all the snacks let's play all the junk food

That quickly faded for me. I went through my jar of peanut butter it was very tasting. I had a couple of boxes and bags of cheez its. That was a nice change. I dabbled with some ice cream. But perhaps the novelty is worn off.

Unlike others I feel my scale and I are on good terms. I was 1.2 pounds away from my goal weight about 2 weeks ago. Haven't hit the go away yet. We can call it a little bit of dehydration on that scale day. But I'm still holding my own.

The hardest part is buying fresh fruit and vegetables and then it goes badd because you're running in bulk.

Twice now I've had really badd pineapple. The 1st one made me kind of sick. The 2nd one didn't stick around the house that long.

 I have made a variety of fun things. Variations of curry. Meat loaf. Shrimp scampi. I have clam sauce that I need to make with and greening that will happen sometimes sooner than later. I bought polenta the other day with the idea of making it with peppers and onions and mushrooms I guess I need to make that  Sooner than later as well.

I have baked  Things. I think I started with a chocolate cake. Moved on to mixed Berry scones. 2 attempts at bread but the  Kind without yeast. Coffee cake. That made a whole lot of coffee cake.  Rum cake that went over really well. Ginger snaps that were wonderfully snappy. And lastly an old school banana carrot loaf with raisins and nuts and chocolate.

Next up I may try that bread with yeast or go back to the mixed Berry scones.
