CHEESE & Weigh In Day

I made tacos tonight for dinner. I made the mistake of dumping out all the bags of cheese that just had a little in each bag into a big bowl. It was just there so, I kept picking up a little pinch here and a little pinch there. Nibble, Nibble. Like a little mouse. Notice I didn't say BIG FAT mouse. That's what I feel like now. Squeak!

Too Much

I think I ate too much today. It was my nephew's b-day party and they had homemade hamburgers. But, the grill wasn't working so they made the hamburgers in the frying pan. Not with oil or anything but, still. I was hungry so, I ate it anyway as not to be rude also. I passed on the cake. Before the party I ate lunch around 11:00. A Lean Cuisine meal. I didn't know that they were going to have food. I just thought cake & ice cream. Shows what I know. So, I ate at 11:00 and then again at 3:00. I called the burger at 3:00 dinner. When we got home everyone else wanted dinner so, daddy made hot dogs on the grill for him & the kids. I passed on the snack too. I need to get back on the routine.

My friend and I ran up to Walmart today. I was going to go to Target but, she talked me into Walmart. I wanted to get the movie "New Moon" and a few things to make the hubby his birthday cake for tomorrow. German Chocolate. Mm...We got our things we needed and she wanted to go through the drive thru at Arby's to get her, her hubby & little boy something to eat. So, we pull up and we don't see the menu. It just had breakfast stuff and drinks. We said to the guy at the window we didn't see it and he said back up a little so we did and we still didn't see it! Know why?! We weren't at Arby's. We were at Starbucks. Hahahahaha! We pull through and throw up the hands and shrug the shoulders like a couple of idiots. You would think at least one of us would have figured it out as long as we sat there. We finally roll around to the Arby's drive thru and when the stuff comes out she asks ME to hold it! Gee...Thanks. I had to sit there and smell it up close & personal on what seemed to be the longest ride home, ever. LOL!
