Let’s get started…

I figured a good place to start with a food blog would be some grocery shots, so here you go…

I actually can’t seem to get my images uploaded for some reason- although i’ve spent the last hour trying to get two stinkin’ pics up… My more tech savvy friend will be home later tonight and maybe she can help but for now, I’ll just give you the list…
Produce:

bananas

strawberries

zuchinni and summer sqaush

cucumber

eggplant

spinach

kale

green beans

carrots

mushrooms

red onion

leeks

mixed baby veggies(these were super cheap and so cute)

The rest of it:

tortillas

several kinds of shredded cheese

several kinds of canned beans

tuna

coffee

peppermint tea

bacon

eggs

soy milk

skim milk

organic tomatoe juice

enchilada sauce

smart balance

black bean and white corn salsa

low fat sour cream

brown rice

whole wheat mini pitas

sugar free syrup

canola oil cooking spray

sliced cheese

fat free cream cheese

plain yogurt

whole wheat pancake mix

vanilla extract

baking powder

I get paid every two weeks and generally only shop every two weeks besides picking up things like milk or bananas- it’s why it looks like a ton of food. I was also out of a lot of basics this time too!

Some meal possibilities:

eggplant parm

ratatouille

stuffed eggplant

enchilladas

sweet potatoe and leek soup

homemade vegetable ravioli

I suppose we’ll just have to wait and see…

A coupleĀ  other quick things-

-I am new to this whole blogging thing, so things may be a little sub par until i fully figure it out lol…

-I am not staying at my own house right now due to a ridiculous situation with my downstairs neighbors. So, i packed up all my food and my dog and some other necessities and I am staying with a friend until I can move- hopefully in the next two weeks. So, I am going to try to stay consistent with my eating habits but they don’t have fun pretty dishes like me so the pics won’t be quite as exciting:)

-I work noon-8:30 so my posting schedule will likely be: posting breakfast before work and then a rest of the day wrap up at night

-With the whole work schedule, I am still trying to figure out what meal schedule works best for me. Right now I eat breakfast around 8, a pre work snack around 11:30, lunch on my 2 o’clock break, a small snack on my 6 o’clock break and then dinner after work around 9 or so… This schedule works for me only because I have a chance to cook dinner and i LOVE to cook, but i do not like eating so late because then i just feel tired and lazy, so that schedule may change…

I think that is about it for now, If you have any questions at all, feel free to ask, i am pretty open about myself. I hope you all enjoy!
