Challenges and choices

My parents were in town this weekend for my dad's birthday, so we did a lot of fun stuff! A hockey game, the symphony, MPM, and some serious eating! I think I did well choosing, though. On Friday we went to a sports bar where "vegetable" is a 4-letter word. I had a grilled chicken sandwich and half an order of onion rings. And a Miller Lite, but just one! Saturday we went to Trocadero, a French restaurant on the East Side. I had a salad with grilled steak, cheese and dressing on the side so I could use just a little. I also had a Hennepin beer. K-man and I shared a chocolate crepe for dessert, which was so much better than getting an appetizer! It was probably a million points, but I think I estimated fairly. And it was delicious! This morning, instead of the bacon extravaganza that could have been the all-you-can-eat buffet, I opted for a veggie fritatta, with zucchini and tomatoes. It was really good, but I think it had a ton of cheese. At least cheese counts for calcium!

I had a snack of a piece of toast with almond butter before the gym, now I'm about to have a roast beef sandwich and watch the Grammys, possibly flipping back and forth between cartoons on Fox.

Nothing too exciting on the menu this week, unfortunately. More sandwich thins, soup and Amy's wraps. But, I suppose when I get tired of those things, I will find something else! There's a possibility of half-price sushi tomorrow, but I have to confirm with my ladies first.

Have a great night!
