What's on your Tuesday Menu?

Good Morning! Happy Tuesday!
I am supposed to take my mom to another all-day eye surgery, which involves 1.5 hours drive to her house, then another hour from her house to the surgery, then reverse for the way home. The weather is not cooperating, though. It's been snowing for a few hours already and it's only stopping when it switches over to freezing rain and sleet. It's not a great day to have to traverse the state, so I'm hoping my mom decides to reschedule.
I did it! I mastered the macaron! Well, "mastered" is generous since I only did one successful batch, lol, but they were perfect! If I don't have to play driver today, I will definitely do another batch.
QOTD: Pick a fictional TV family to live with. I would like to be Lorelei's other daughter in Gilmore Girls :)
Accountability: Did I eat literally anything on my menu yesterday? No. Did I try too many of my macarons? Yes.
Not really sure what to plan for today--Grim and I plan to go out to breakfast, so I'll grab scrambled eggs there. Then, if I am waiting for mom, I will find a nearby spot where I can sit and work for a few hours. There is a BK next door, and I will probably just sit there so I don't have to drive anywhere else. I have no idea what they have there--haven't been in ages! And if the roads are terrible tonight I will stay over at their house. So, yeah--no idea.

Good morning and happy Tuesday everyone!! Ready for the short week?
I have our sales kickoff starting tonight through 10 pm tomorrow and then our day and a half strategy session Thursday and Friday. I'm ready for the week but it's going to be a long one. I'm not super psyched at the "grab and go" breakfasts W-F since they will probably be super carby but maybe there will be yogurt. I'm already planning to ditch out of tomorrow night's Top Golf event (I can already tell I will be behind on everything) but it will be good to get some IRL time with the broader team. Also curious how many people can't make it in between weather and plane issues. My flight is still on time though and it's the first one for that plane so should be fine. Also, it's warmer right now than it has been since Thursday so that's a plus.
QOTD - I'm happy with my current family so nothing as an adult but as a kid I really wanted to belong to the Ingalls.
menu today
coffee plus half and half X2
yogurt and pistachios
protein bar
Hot chicken salad probably
Have a terrific Tuesday.

Mines cancelled classes today, because of the extreme cold and icy driving. Our son sent us a picture of a steak that he cooked. I asked "are your vegetables on a side plate?". He said that they didn't have the right size potatoes, so he had Brie and Ritz crackers instead.

lol, I do always park in the same part of the garage, even if I need to go to another part of the airport. I do Uber when the parking eould
be more than the round trip

I always travel with a bag full of protein bars. Every meal I see not to my liking I fish out a protein bar. Even when I travel with my family, if they choose a low protein restaurant/menu my epic chicken and protein bars are my friends.

As do I (except, I have chomps instead of the epic, I don't care for epic) but I'm still salty about the way they have put this together and that was before I got today's agenda about the "optional line dancing" tonight. Guess they did find something worse than top golf, lol

LOL. I can picture the line dancing.
