It's What's For Dinner

Here is what I had for dinner:

1) pretzels dipped in soy-nut butter (carbohydrate and protein food groups)

2) a package of broccoli with tomato sauce (vegetable food group)

3) about 80,000 pieces of caramel candy corn, otherwise known as the non-illegal version of CRACK (high fructose corn syrup group)

In my defense, usually my dinner's kind of sort of more balanced than this...but no really, it actually is, especially since Preston and I have a MASTER PLAN (inspired by Quirky's post here) to cook dinner--real, live, adult-like dinner--together FOUR, count them FOUR nights a week...but tonight wasn't one of those nights. So I made the real, live, adult-like decision to eat my weight in caramel candy corn. This is what happens when I'm left to my own devices/when I would rather eat caramel candy corn/do anything other than write my Greek paper.

  1. First, I really like your blog. You crack me up.
    Second, I think I am going to steal the planning meals at the beginning of the week idea. It seems like such an obvious idea, but me and my bf never do it. We should though. This would probably stop the stupid fights caused by hungry people and no food in the fridge. Thanksssssss

  2. If possible, I would freebase candy corn.

  3. At first I was going to gloat at HOW GOOD IT FEELS TO BE FAMOUS! I mean, really, if MF is talking about me, I've pretty much hit the big time :)

    But then I decided that I should be honest with you... because I definitely ate almost an entire bag of candy corns the other night. They are my FAV candy and I just have to buy some when Halloween comes around.

    P.S. The only reason I didn't eat the WHOLE bag: it was the variety pack with corns, pumpkins, and brown-tipped corns. I think that's supposed to be chocolate? I dunno, but I don't like it. So instead of letting ALL of the brown-tipped corns go to waste, I ate off the bottoms of every.last.one. Leaving only the brown tips to throw away. I'm OCD. And a sugar-addict. I know.
