Wednesday

Discovery of the day: BAS is easy-peasy

One pleasant side effect to having BAS on the menu twice a day (most days) is that if I don't feel like cooking, I don't have to spend a lot of time deciding what to eat. I do need to spend a few minutes thinking about my son's dinner but I have that repertoire down pat -- not much energy required there. So on low-energy days (weeks) like this one, keeping myself fed is pretty mindless. And I like that a lot.

Speaking of low-energy, I think I might be coming down with a cold. My boyfriend popped one early this week and he's pretty miserable. Can't say as I'm too thrilled about that since we're leaving tomorrow evening for an extra long weekend in a warm, sunny place.

And therein lies my next challenge: feeding myself at a friend's house for 5 days. As long as there's a grocery store within striking distance, it should be OK. We are planning an excursion over the border for dinner at a favorite spot. I'll definitely be leaping off the wagon that night!

Here's hoping there's no virus in my immediate future. I'll gladly deal with it next Wednesday if I can get out of it this weekend.
