Made a pot of chicken and veggie soup, added lemongrass and lots of garlic for flavor.

I had dinner out with a friend tonight. She had bourbon chicken that was loaded with mushrooms, and squash & zucchini. I had grilled salmon, steamed broccoli and the zucchini & squash. For dessert, she had some kind of devil chocolate lava thingy, and I had a piece of hot apple pie. We both had unsweetened iced tea with lemon.

Dinner was great, as was the service and the company. :)

I kinda missed dinner....I was out and about doing stuff...BUT

I stopped at McDs for a sweet tea...and saw they had cookies...who knew?

I had an oatmeal cookie and a chocolate chip cookie. My sweet tea was skunky...I returned it and got more icky tea...so...it was just cookies for dinner...

Being a grown up is awesome :)

Med Rare steak, mashed potatoes with gravy, broccoli, salad with ranch dressing, sweet tea for a drink.

I was so hungry ...

We had steaks on the grill, baked potatoes with sour cream, steamed mixed vegetables. I had milk to drink. Then I had a large milkshake.

My khakis and jeans seem to be sliding off my hips. When I am off work, I am doing lots of heavy duty manual labor lately, lot of lifting and carrying "heavy." I think I was not eating enough. More muscled up than normal right now but still don't need to be dropping weight. Anyway, great excuse for milkshakes. ;)

Delicious bbq pork chops and herbed rice.

No-bean chili and low-carb tortillas with a baked pear for dessert. Perfect on this rainy day.

Watching my dirty birds makes me want pizza. I rarely eat it since it is the diabetic death. Yeah I think pizza it is

I MADE soup in the crock pot...one of those 12 bean mix soups...it sounded wicked good. I added garlic, veggies, a can of tomatoes with chilies, some hot sauce and various spices...

but....

It took forever and I got hungry so I made icky mac n cheese from a box. I hate the stuff and I never make it for myself but...it was quick and I was hungry. I diced up a jalapeno from the garden and added it in. Made it tolerable. I also have no milk so I used extra ater and butter. Garlic salt made it yummier...

I also baked a cake. Spice cake, made with cinnamon apple sauce instead of oil. I have cinnabun frosting for it once it cools....and Im thinking I may crumble up some almond/ginger granola to sprinkle over it....

Fall makes me feel all bakie :)

Thanks, Gemme. It sounds good. I will try it.
