Whew! Test is O-ver! Yay! It went well enough as a hard Biochem test can go. We shall see come Wednesday (or worse case, a week from now).
After Food Science, Cara invited Kelsey and me over to her house again for lunch. It’s nice to hang out in a comfortable room. If you’d like to see what Cara (and her living room) are like, here is a wild video she made with her roommate late one night: Dino DNA + the Jurassic Spastics.
For lunch today I packed a huge pile of vegetables. Mixed greens, peppers, carrots, broccoli, tomatoes tossed in some fig balsamic vinegar and topped with some cottage cheese.
(The rest of the cottage cheese)
Plus a small sandwich of smoked salmon mousse from Saturday’s party on GH “French Toast” bread. And a few mixed greens and dill.
Some strawberries + kiwi (and I’m saving another half cup or so for Foodservice fruitcapades!)
A sparking water
And two Hershey’s kisses amongst dinos for dessert. I had to fight them for the chocolate!
I’m still kind of hungry. I think I needed more sustenance in my salad. I was also starving around 11:30 today. I think the test drained me of glucose + glycogen! I might dig into the rest of my fruit early. And I’ve got a LaraBar to have for a snack later if I need it.
Off to class #3.

Kath, lunch looks very good. Good to hear about the test!
Hallie says
I tried that type of water and wasn’t a fan. Maybe I need to give another flavor a shot…
Maggie says
I actually read a study recently that showed how intense brain activity (like studying, or working on a really hard project) – makes you MORE hungry than exercise. Don’t remember where I saw it, but if I find it I’ll send you a link!
Tina says
That sandwich made me drool a little! I posted some new Trader Joes items on my Blog today – they just came out with Crunchy Peanut Butter with Flaxseed. I thought of you!
sarah says
Strawberries and kiwi= my favorite! Love the dino pic.

maybe you feel like you’re hungry from the sparkling water? The bubbles/fizz in those types of drinks always make my stomach feel “rumbly” or empty.
Mel says
Glad to hear that your test is over and it went ok.
Sarah (lovINmytummy) says
Your girls are crazy-sauruses.
I’m always full after such a fibrous meal, that then it seems like an hour or so later I feel so EMPTY!
