Day 25: Aaaaaaaaaaahhhh WIPE OUT!

As you may imagine from the title, this was not the best food day I've ever had.  On the plus side, it was not as bad a food day as the day of the Puyallup Fair, but it is by far the worst food day I had in the last two weeks.  Here goes the ugly blow-by-blow accounting for the day.

Breakfast: We went out to eat at Biscuits, the local breakfast cafe. A waffle with strawberries (thawed) and a side of 2 eggs, over easy.  Not terrible, but far from great.  Eggs are on the food to avoid list and waffles have egg, milk and sugar in them, in small amounts.  As it was, I walked away from the table hungry today.  Go figure.

Lunch: Brian was about to cook brussel sprouts, which drove me running from the house.  The smell!  The taste!  BLEH!!! Instead of staying around for the grossness, I went to go get my nails done. Next door to the nail place was a Chinese Teriyaki place: Teriyaki Woo - I can't make this kind of thing up. Their menu was not vegetarian friendly, so I had the vegetable fried rice and two egg rolls.  I'm still not sure if I was eating pork or mushroom in the egg rolls.  No big deal.  At this point, the food day was still salvageable.

My next stop was the mall, where I avoided such temptations as Sees Candies, Godiva Chocolates, Auntie somebody's Pretzels and the food court.  Yay, me! I was very proud of myself for such a grand display of self control, especially when there was no one around to say whether or not I cheated. But that would have been cheating, so I held strong. I held strong, all the way until dinner, when I completely choked!

Dinner: Pepperoni pizza with sausage, ricotta, mozzarella...WIPE OUT! Man, the only thing that would have made it worse is a scoop of ice-cream. Which I came SO CLOSE to getting on a giant chocolate chip cookie cooked in an iron skillet.  The good news in all of this is that we shared a 12 inch pizza, so there wasn't too much carnage.

That is all I have to share today.  It was an ugly day, foodwise. The rest of the day was very good, so we'll call it a wash and move on to tomorrow.  Until then, be healthy!
