What's on your Tuesday Menu?
Morning! Tough start at work today, so I'm late to all the parties. Employees with constant drama. Who doesn't hate it. And my new Ops Manager is learning the hard way if you hire people with drama filled lives, it spills over to the office. Keep it at home, people!! LOL.
OH! Success on the the Paramount + set up. Thanks for all the help!
QoTD: Skinny black jeans, loafers and my new Let it Bee shirt from the Honey Company in Carmel.
Menu:
B: hb egg, 1/4 c cottage cheese
L: leftover no carb meatloaf slice, cauliflower au gratin
D: Shepard's pie
S: hopefully I don't need snacks during the day. I did great yesterday. But I am enjoying a square of Hershey's dark chocolate each evening.
Peace Everyone!

Good morning~ I still can't believe you've never been to taco bell! With your taco experience, I worry it will only disappoint. Me on the other hand, I crave it all the time. Feeling much better today but it's been a slow dental healing. The headaches and jaw aches are mind numbing sometimes, but at least on the healing side of this pain. I woke up and got on the treadmill for another workout this morning - it was fabulous. I really like my new routine. I'm still in Egypt, exploring the pyramids - the history is so fascinating. Anyway, I didn't realize they were series of 10+ to this destination, but I don't want to move on until I've seen them all! I tried checking out Dublin yesterday afternoon and was disappointed as they were just pictures, not video. After Egypt, is Castle tours. I hope they are good.
Anyone have a good substitute for crispy potatoes/fries? That is the one food I can't seem to remake/fake. What food do you use and how do you cook them?
QOTD - haha, what are you wearing! I'm at work - wearing black flats, black leggings, a white on black polka dot swing tank and a red sheer kimono blouse with a zebra striped face mask. I'm all about comfort. And leggings are the only thing that fit me.
b-coffee, egg bites
l- chicken bites and salad
d- homemade Philly cheese steak in a bowl extra veggies, no bread
s - cheese, HB egg
Have a great day!

I have made roasted veggies using Pam (or similar) for the oil and using the baby potatoes. It seems to work well and doesn't add a bunch of calories in the oil. I use plently of other veggies as filler so it isn't all potatoes.

I like the idea of diluting the potato ratio with veg filler. There is nothing like crispy potato though. I had heard about people crisping up radishes and turnips but it never worked for me.

Hey Amy! Sorry about all the pain with your root canal. I have no idea what your endodontic did but root canals shouldn't hurt for days. I have done plenty of root canals, unfortunately, and never went through what you are going through. You might wanna get a second opinion on this guy's job.

It must be something about this tooth then - the placement/location or something. I've had 2 root canals on this tooth (13 years apart, different doctors) and both were super painful like this one.
I had one other root canal that was nothing - no pain- the Novocain wore off and I never felt a twinge.
