Oh, the candy!

Today will be my last day of Paleo eating until Monday. That's right, folks. I'm a sucker. I'm succumbing to the pressure of the holiday. There will be a feast at my house on Sunday, and there is no way I am missing it!!! No way. I'll hop back on the wagon on Monday. But until then, I feast!

Today was a lovely Paleo day. Breakfast was turkey bacon and eggs over easy - this was the first time I'd let baby boy eat them prepared this way, and he ate half my eggs! MY eggs! For lunch, we went to hubby's work (we do it every week). He works for the government, so we eat good ole' cafeteria food. Today, on their hot line they had smoked sausages with peppers and onions, and I had green beans as my side item. Once again, baby boy ate ALL my green beans. Seriously. I maybe had 3 out of the whole bowl! I jokingly told hubby that baby boy was my best diet ever. He eats all my food!

We still need to go to the grocery in a bad way. I had a smoked sausage in the fridge (to be clear - I have a whole deep freezer full of grass-fed beef; but when it's frozen, it doesn't do me much good!). So for the second time today, I ate smoked sausage. At least I love that stuff! I sauteed mine with the remaining half of a green pepper in the fridge, an onion, and two zucchini. I made hash from my last yam to go with it. Hubby was right - yams do taste different than white potatoes. But not by much! I must have been having allergy problems the other night!

I am a kitchen gadget freak. If it has a specific purpose (for example, a pickle-getter or an avocado slicer), I want it. No, I need it. It's an obsession. So I get my veggies in their nice little stick shapes by using one of these. They're all cut in uniform shape and size, and I don't have to worry about chopping my own fingers off in the cooking process. Have I mentioned that I'm a klutz?  :)
