What did you eat today?
Breakfast: Grapenuts, cranberry juice, 2 strawberries
Lunch: Carnitas burrito from El Gusano. This was a serious piece of eating, and really good. The meat was juicy, which is kind of unusual for a carnitas. It’s a big, sit down place, and it gets pretty busy at lunch.
Afternoon snack: 1 little tiny reeses thing. And a coke zero. The burrito was still with me.
Dinner: Leftover spaghetti bolognese and a salad from the garden.
Dessert: A cookie left from the ferris wheel cake.

Dinner: Pasta with fresh tomatoes and basil
Dessert: None. Can you believe that shit?
