SUNDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Grapenuts, cranberry juice, strawberries.

LunchChicken sandwich

Afternoon snack: Chocolate bark, Coke Zero

Dinner: Homemade spaghetti with Bolognaise sauce. Made the pasta from Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone. It required a lot more water than the recipe called for and it still didn’t come together easily. On the other hand, it wasn’t sticky at all, and it tasted great.

Dessert: Eliza made special mint brownies
