I have grown into someone I never thought I would be. I like things to be ordered and predictable. I don't like surprises and am no longer very spontaneous. When I make up my mind to do something and then mess it up or can't follow through on it, I get frustrated with myself. I'm a whole heap of fun, aren't I?
This Lent, partly because I have not felt well, and partly because I am incredibly busy with my boys' activities, I have had a rough time sticking to the fast. I mean, I had a chicken sandwich at Chik-Fil-A the other night! I could have had their carrot-raisin slaw - size large - but that just didn't sound good after a 9-hour fast.
Well, as of today, I have gotten back on track and, with God's help, I am determined to stay there. Check out the recipe for tonight's dinner - Linguine with White Clam and Broccoli Sauce. (Right column of my Blog)It was surprisingly delicious! Lunch was wonderful - ate at Sunflower Vegetarian restaurant with a good friend and had their Curry Supreme. Breakfast was steel cut oats and a banana.
Got some good news today - all blood work was normal, except for a low white blood cell count (has been that way since I finished chemotherapy almost 9 years ago, so it's no big deal). Here's hoping the good ol' doctors can keep the "good news" trend going!
Well, that's all for tonight. Tomorrow I will introduce you to a wonderful friend who has perfected Vegan cooking and baking! I really look forward to utilizing her wisdom in this area and know that you will be inspired by her as well. Until then, happy and healthy eating!
