What did you eat today?
Breakfast: Granola, cranberry juice
Morning Snack: A bite of a GNC protein bar I picked up at bike to work day. One bite was enough. Nasty.
Lunch: Ham sandwich with hummus
Afternoon snack: Hummus and chips, plus some candy. Coke zero
Dinner: Leftover pork tenderloin, corn pancakes, rice, green salad
Dessert: Chocolate chip cookies
Breakfast: Granola, cranberry juice
Morning Snack: A few small pastries (and a piece of pizza) at bike-to-work-day stations.
Lunch: Turkey cranberry sandwich from Cafe Gabriela in Oakland. It was pretty good, but small. I think the mayo was house-made; really tasty. I would order the sopressata sandwich next time, or the pulled pork. The trouble, though, is that they all are on a baguette, which means biting it will send the filling out the other side.
Afternoon snack: Cupcakes from Cupcake Love in Oakland. Brought in for someone’s birthday. Had little bites of each and all very tasty.
Dinner: Pork tenderloin, the backyard bbq recipe from Sarah Foster. Also some corn pancakes with a lime cilantro sour cream sauce. Amazing.
Dessert: Chocolate chip cookies with some ice cream.

Afternoon snack: Java chip Frappuccino. It was “Frappuccino Happy Hour” so couldn’t resist
Dinner: Pizza with dried cherries, roasted garlic, prosciutto, and blue cheese
Dessert:
Breakfast: Donuts from Rainbow donuts in Berkeley. This shop was pretty great: they had a good selection of interesting doughnuts… stuff like Oreo, Mint, M&M, alongside the classics. I have to say, though, that their custard filling was a little weak.
Morning Snack: Iced tea
Lunch: Turkey hummus pita wrap
Afternoon snack: Chocolate chip cookies and lemonade from the girls’ roving lemonade stand. There were a ton of garage sales, and they raised $50 to send to victims of the Nepal earthquake
Dinner: 2 cheeseburger meal from McDonald’s, just to bookend a day of healthy living. The girls had never eaten at Micky-D’s, and they read about Happy Meals in a book… mom was sick, it seemed a perfect opportunity. Frankly, they were underwhelmed. Tessa said the chicken nuggets tasted kind of fishy. Eliza said the burgers were better at Barney’s. Both were correct.
Dessert: Another chocolate chip cookie or two
