Breakfast- 2 pieces of whole grain toast with spicy peach preserves, a pluot and a cup of vanilla roobois tea

Lunch -wilted spinach salad w/ thinly sliced red onion, toasted pine nuts and hot balsamic dressing, a sliced heirloom tomato w/ salt and pepper, pineapple, mango & red grapes, baby carrots with roasted red pepper hummus, and iced tea.

Dinner- salad with cilantro lime vinagrette, cotija cheese and pepitas, veggie taco & bean burrito, ice tea.

Dessert- 1/4 of a pint of Haagen Dazs sticky toffee pudding ice cream. I was successful in the vegetable quest, but screwed it up with the ice cream I devoured. And hot damn, was it good!

pomegranate juice is so good.

[dani837]

Oh god same here! But not because we would get ingredients from the backyard, but because people would cook YUUUUMMY stuff for us! aah i miss all the peruvian food

[hellotampon]

a nectarine
a luna bar
a spicy tofu salad wrap
ginger-lemon tea
my frigging weight in coconut-rolled dates, which are delicious!

the wrap came from a new health food store and cafe in town. I am jumping up and down for joy. Finally, another local place to eat! My boyfriend and I used to spend an obnoxious amount of time at the other health food store/cafe until it closed a year ago. We still miss it!

[bunnyb]

wombat, today actually! Although I did take some to work with me (in a fruit salad with mango, kiwi and blueberries) but didn't have the appetite to eat it so think I'll have it for breakfast tomorrow (along with another portion to make up for today!) I'm going through a phase of pomegranates and nectarines.

today:

a nectarine
slice of toast with honey

grande skinny, sugarfree hazlenut latte

a bounty (chocolate bar with coconut)

chicken, bacon, sweetcorn and tomato salad
carton of cranberry juice

water, water and more water

yeah, not much of an appetite

[wombat]

thanks, lloli. Concord grapes would have been my first guess.

[lloli]

Oo, I did not know the pit would prevent browning! That sounds delish.

what are "coronation grapes"

Coronations, I believe, are a variation of concord grapes from the winery area of Ontario. They are very sweet, seedless and dusky. So dang delicious!
