Day 7

[lnr]

Breakfast: chicken and bacon club sandwich from machine, left over ribena, water

Lunch: french onion soup, cheese and onion walkers crisps, cream cheese bacon and tomato ciabatta, diet coke.

Afternoon: Quite a bit of bonfire toffee

Dinner: Chili's: shared triple play starter (fried chicken and fish in batter, fried cheese in crumbs, blue cheese, salsa and honey dips, 3 small celery sticks), about half of ribs and chicken with chips instead of rice (took rest home in box for fridge), cosmopolitan, water.

And that concludes a week of logging my food. This has been crossposted between lnr and incendiaryfood, although I've been cut tagging it on the former. I was particularly amused to be asked to make the cut text include the word "food" so some people could avoid reading it, when the whole point has been to be public about what I'm eating. This has not been a diet, it's been what I might eat on a fairly ordinary week (ok, including a birthday and an anniversary, but still, there are parties many other weeks). I still don't feel particularly militant about it.

Thank you, I found this meme very interesting. I tried doing it myself, but forgot on day three!

Yours would mostly be sandwiches ;P I might try doing this meme when I feel better and actually have an appetite.

I kept forgetting too, either forgetting to post or forgetting what I ate. I am a little amazed at the amount of quick-release carbohydrate you eat - if I ate that I think I'd explode with sugar!

It's not that I mind, it's just not very interesting. If you ate a live frog or something that would be worth reading about.

Next time we go out to dinner you are not to feed me live frogs.

[damerell.livejournal.com]

Understood. _Next_ time we go out to dinner at most one of the frogs I feed you will be alive.

There are to be no frogs, either dead or alive, eaten when we have dinner.

And no slipping frogs in my mouth when I sleep either or it's fuzzy felt on the head for you.

I've been reading your food logs, along with those of other people. I've found them all very interesting, which is a bit odd since I'm normally quite painfully bored by list-type memes.

If you're interested in what your logs made me feel: they mostly made me feel like I wanted to get the train to Cambridge and feed you some nice food for a change. I do know that working from home has made it much easier for me to make sure that everyone in the household gets to eat at least one proper meal a day, and I do understand this isn't as easy for everyone. But when you keep writing things like "sandwich from machine" and "packet of crisps", I just want to come and feed you something home-made!

Well, it's an interesting reaction. I mostly eat nicer things in the evenings than during the week at work. I just don't have the tuits to make myself breakfast or lunch, or to go into town on my lunchbreak and spend more on them.

I think I make it only 2 real home cooked meals over the week (bolognese at Mike's, Fish Pie at mine), which is a bit pathetic but possibly better than some.

I do *like* sandwiches and crisps though. Even if proper home made door stop ones with nice fresh bread and good fillings are much better than the ones from the machine. Actually the toasted sandwich machine is pretty good though - mozarella, sun-dried tomato and fresh basil makes a very nice toastie.

That does make it sound better! I was reading "sandwich and crisps" as "lunch of last resort" :)
