Today, I helped out with the PTA snack sale at school. I have gone 19 days without really craving anything except eggs, but today I was literally salivating as I served tray after tray of nachos. Why??? Those nachos have processed cheese on them. Why am I craving processed cheese? Something is wrong with that.
Then we got home and were watching the news when a picture of a big basket of juicy KFC Fried Chicken appeared right on the screen and once again ,I was salivating. How sad. I guess 19 days is not enough to get one's taste buds to change after a life time of eating (and very much enjoying!) junky food.
We were late getting home on Friday and I was very hungry and a little bit in a bad mood because I was SO craving those nachos and it took a lot of will power to not take a bite of the crunchy, gooey stuff. I had planned to make an elaborate dinner, but changed my mind and instead we had spicy vegetable potstickers for dinner. I found out they are vegan! We have always enjoyed the chicken potstickers, and these were not as tasty as I remember the chicken ones to be, but they were still a welcome change. We rounded off our dinner with a bowl of fresh fruit. Dinner was ready in 8 minutes. Yeah, baby, that's what I'm talking about!!!
On the bright side, I am so enjoying cooking! I cook almost every day and I love it, but I can see how it would be hard to maintain this lifestyle for someone who works full time. You would have to do some major planning and cooking on the weekend.
