Life is just a bowl of broccoli

The broccoli-love continued with lunch.

Lunch was 1 head of broccoli (roasted last night) with cottage cheese, and about ½ cup of stuffing from a box. Not a typical food (the stuffing) for me, but very good nonetheless.

The broccoli-love continued with dinner.

Romain, 1 head of roasted broccoli, 1 apple, 1 shredded carrot, and dressing made from: plain yogurt, red wine vinegar and spicy mustard. Yums.

I wasn’t sure about the dressing, as I had never used plain yogurt as a base, but it was g-o-o-d.

The apple was so crunchy and fantastic, I had to have more. I had another apple combined with a ½ mango, a kiwi, and a sprinkle of coconut flakes and cinnamon.

I poured milk over this bowl and had a mouthwatering and heavenly dessert of fruit cereal. No one can accuse me of not eating enough fiber today.

Meeker wasn’t thrilled about my fruit/veggie fest…he took his dinner in another direction.

Wasabi nut mix and a Guinness.

Now we are happily parked on the couch watching Dallas do its thang…GO COWBOYS!

Oh, I had to draw some animals in class today to model a project on animal habitats we are working on. Usually – I resort to stick figures when I draw in for an audience, but today’s wildlife turned out so well (for ME), that I actually took pictures. Haha.

A bear sharpening his claws on a dead tree.

A woodpecker eating timber beetles.

A nest in the hollow of a dead tree: a good habitat for bluebirds.

    I think those are fabulous teacher picures! I literally (obviously unintentionally) ended up making everything I ever drew on the chalkboard look like a giant penis!
