Eating Out...

 

As you know by now, food is very important to me :-) but believe it or not I am very picky with what I eat. For example I do not like lamb and Indian food. I do not care much about Mexican food, either. I am not a big dessert eater. I like the sugar cone more that the ice cream. I normally do not order desserts nor have alcohol with my meal. I do eat a lot of Asian Food and most of the choices are healthy.

 

With my handy pedometer, I also take at least 10K steps a day so I can sort of justify a lot of eating out. Thank you Lord for blessings! :-)

Still Vego...♥

mushroom risotto - La Porchetta

 

I am still not eating meat since that Tuesday over 4 months ago. I am proud of myself because I have been to a lot of dinners with colleagues and friends, and not to mention weekly date night outs with Rich. That's a lot of probable meat dinners! But I eat sea food so it was or it is, not really a sacrifice hahaha!

 

I do not eat meat ...but I guess I do eat everything else!

 

Rich is cute he pauses a little bit when our meals are served "want to take a photo of this?" But of course! :)

 

I was asked why I always take photos of my food. My answer is simple: "I like to document my blessings." Thank you Lord. I am always grateful.
