Today has been crazy. The last several days have been crazy. There is not a single green food in our house and the only fruit we have is rotten, but still sitting on the counter. I haven’t cooked in days. I ate breakfast this morning while reading about partial-birth abortions for my health law class. School is in full swing, and I feel I have officially fallen off the healthy & wholesome eating wagon. I’ve possibly also fallen off the sanity wagon. Beware: what you are about to see is essentially a carb fest that was consumed while looking at the clock and saying “Wait, how much longer do I have before the next class?”. We’re in the trenches, my friends. And this is what I ate Wednesday.

Breakfast: PB & J Oats (Coach’s oats cooked in almond milk, topped with peanut butter and strawberry jelly), cup of English Breakfast tea on the side

Lunch: leftover Papa John’s pizza from last night, which gave me crazy heartburn starting an hour later

Dinner: Moe’s chicken taco stack, chips & queso, root beer on the side

I know, I know. It was a very SAD day (by SAD I mean Standard American Diet, of course). Don’t judge, at least not until you’re a second-year law student. I haven’t had the time to do my typical meal planning and grocery shopping, and the result is what you just saw above. The good news is that this was an unusual week and this sort of thing shouldn’t always happen. I feel a major life re-organization and possible food detox happening for us in the very near future. Look out.

Thanks for reading! And please go and eat something better for you than what I’ve been having.
