Only seven days left after today. Whew. I am ready to be done. It's not been terrible, but I just don't like the restrictions, and frankly I don't like the blandness.
Today I combined a couple of Food Desert staples: PB&B, and PB&J.
Lunch was the PB&J with carrots tradition:
I grabbed a bag of peanuts ($0.50; 260 cal) for snack before my afternoon class.
That's a shot of the building I teach in on Tuesday afternoons. That's really not much ice compared to some other places, I just happened to have my phone out when I was walking by.
Dinner was baked ziti - except it was actually elbows, not ziti. I caramelized some onions in olive oil, then added the Hunt's sauce to the onions as well as a bunch of garlic powder and "Italian seasoning" (whatever that is - mostly oregano and basil, I think). I cooked the macaroni, then mixed the sauce and macaroni along with an ounce or so of mozzarella, then added the rest of the mozzarella on top and baked it until the mozzarella was just starting to crisp.
It came out nice. And the price was reasonable.
I ran 10 minutes and walked 55 minutes on the treadmill while I watched Seth Godin videos on YouTube. I recommend this one:
After exercise I was a bit hungry, so I broke into the frozen peas ($0.90; 105 cal) I found at the other Tedeschi the other day. I put a little I Can't Believe ($0.07; 20 cal) on them for flavor.
Speaking of I Can't Believe, did you guys hear about the butter crisis in Norway? My colleague used this video in class to talk about supply and demand yesterday afternoon.
A busy but pretty good day.
