Change my Life?

SO, between today and last night’s cooking experiences, I keep realizing that there are large amounts of my day spent thinking about food.  Which, in today’s world that really is not seen as weird, it just reminds me of how much I love everything about food. I love making a list, I like picking up the food, I like cooking it, [even though I am not that great at cooking, and most of the time I cook it is not easy lol] I like substituting for what I think might be healthier at times, I like trying and eating the food, I like thinking about what would taste good and what I think I want to try next. I really should put up pictures, but I always get so lazy, and always end up taking them with my camera phone, not my actual camera.  I don’t really end up documenting my food to much like a lot of people do when they cook these days and have blogs.  Which does not make sense because I love taking pictures, well, used to.  I still like taking pictures, I just don’t anymore=[ I think part of the reason is because I am stuck with the same camera and I get bored, ah well lol. Anyways, I really want to eat some eggplant after eating some of philip’s sister’s eggplant the other day at olive garden.  I was pretty certain I didn’t like it, but maybe I am wrong.  I also had been interesting in trying gazpacho, which is or can be made with eggplant, so I think I might attempt it eventually.  However, I leave Sunday so I am not sure how much I will get done.  I also want to taste beets and turnips.  I do not eat these, and I do not know why, maybe I don’t like them, but I am pretty determined to find out.  I have also realized I really should eat more leafy greens, seeing as I do not really eat those either.  I think of myself as eating pretty decently, but people get bored with the same things everyday, and it is good to have variety so maybe I’ll get some kale, swiss chard, or spinach next time I make a trip to the store.

That pretty much does it for what I want to eat more of right now in the present..the dessert I made today was great! It was definitely fattening, but the idea of chocolate-pb fudge rice krispes-I had to try it.  I still am bummed my acorn stuffed quinoa was not as flavorful and yummy as I had hoped last night:\

On, the other hand, Philip and I did finish our little 550 puzzle.  Pretty cute, little town if I do say so myself lol. I hope I will be able to have enough materials and ingredients around me and at school to make some things.  I still wish I had my own luggage[dislike always have to take my mom’s things], I wish I had a parking space in the lot of the apts I act. will be living at, and I WISH I had a stove in the apt. I will be living in! However…that is me being all selfish and complaining so…oh well. I made some really good oats this morning too, yum=] I really do eat dark chocolate dreams pb everyday, on something, ANYTHING. Regular pb just does not taste the same..lol or as good to me anymore. At least Earthfare is like a short walk away from school, that is pretty cool, seeing as that there is not one close to me when I am at home.  

I hope I can find a job once I am up at school, that isn’t lame.  I really need to be able to be busy this semester, and make money, because I will not be able to work next summer, and really would rather have my own space.

I really think I am going to start alternating the swimming classes and yoga at school this semester, along with my allowed x1 week workout session. Don’t need any weight loss going on..no sir, at least not at this point in my life.

PS-so happy philip tries and wants to eat all the food I cook/suggest, even if he has never had it=] AND he loves goat cheese=]yes!

By the way, I just can’t get into salads. I like them, but they are just not my go-to food.  I never want to try a new salad..I mean sure you can mix it up with nuts, berries, avocado, and even goat cheese, I just feel like there is so much more I am missing if I just eat a salad….

“eat real food” <- =]
