Vegan Mostly

Yay!!! Woo Hoo! I did it! Yay me! Today was day 30! I'm so proud of myself that I made 30 days. Obviously I'm not giving up my eating habits. It just won't be as restricted. 90% vegan. :) I'm good w that.  Lunch: Tomato and cucumber sandwich w fruit and fries. My sandwich was great! My fruit was boring. The fries weren't good at all.  We went to the hospital to see my sister in law. She's doing good. My Momma in law wanted Luby's. I got veggie soup w black bean and corn salad w fried mushrooms and okra. Not the healthiest being fried but what do you want from me "/ it was good. ;p  The good/bad thing about being vegan is this: Pokey's desert. He ate half and gave to his sister. 

Today was really simple w food. No breakfast. I such I know. Lunch was leftovers w avocado. How great is that. I love avocado.  After work Pokey and I go bike riding. I was ahead of him on my nephews bike and the brakes don't work on that bike. Anyways Pokey pulled off to the side to look at the creek (I think he was tired ad wanted to rest he should have said something "/ ) I told him. I'm uphill. I can't stop. Anyways as soon as my wheel hit the sand I flipped over the bike. I got up. I was fine. I laughed. I figured I looked funny. I have cuts scrapes and bruises. I love it!  We came home took showers and dinner was served. A strawberry and spinach smoothie. I was tired and worn out. I need a massage. 

Becca and I went riding yesterday and I'm sore today but I think I will forcer be a bike rider. Seriously. I love it!  Breakfast:  Cereal w almond milk  Lunch: Quinoa w red quinoa mixed in. Just basic. Drank a lot of water because I knew we were going riding again. This time we took Sonner. We did almost 8 miles! Yes!!! It was awesome!  Sonner and Becca  Before we left I juiced apples jicama and cucumber. Omg so good!  Cheers!!! Dinner was so good. Even if I do say so myself ;) I made quinoa w black bean and chick pea. I've been craving raw sweet potato. Yes craving. Crazy right? Lol. I sliced some sweet potato ad ate it like chips w avocado and tomato. So good.  I think I'm going to invest in sweet potato for raw chips. I love crunch so this is healthier. :) 

Today was a much better day than yesterday. Pokey still worked on the truck but just my truck. He changed the brakes (yay!)  This isn't food. This is lemon honey and olive oil for Becca's hair. We lightened it today. Lu like to squeeze lemons  Then we chopped all this... And cooked it on the grill :)  Tacos....  Later for dinner I ate some more. I've never had grilled sweet potato but its good!  Rebecca and I went bike riding. I think we did good for the first time.  We came home and Pokey was done w my brakes and started to do yard work so I joined him. Anyone want some lemon basil and pineapple sage? I cut some and have it to share.  Pokey made him dinner. He made tilapia I had to share. It smells good. 

Man! Yesterday was a super busy day. I worked till 2:30 Sunday and came home to Pokey STILL trying to fix my break. :( the lug nut is stripped  You see that?! Bitch! Then my Momma's car just stopped running on Rachel Saturday night. They were close to my aunts house so they had it towed. So when I got home from work Pokey wanted to go help the guys out because we sold the car to my Momma. Anyways we were out there till 11pm! Still not working. He said leave it to the professionals. They tried everything they could.  I love my man. He is really the best and he has a great heart. I know he's tired. My truck still on the back burner. He's going to fix it today. Today (Monday) we were going to Texas City. He wanted to go fishing and I just wanted to be w him. Rebecca was going to go but nope. That's not happening. Ill make the best of today. It will be good. Ok now about the food I ate  Water. I drank so much while at work. The apple w lemon and mint was delish. I like how ...

Five more days to go! I'm proud of myself.  Simple but delish lunch  After work I stopped by Sully's house. Her Momma made sancocho its so good. I had it w out meat.  Came home from work had a glad of wine. Pokey was putting new brakes on my truck.  Rebecca and Lu are here w us. Watching a movie a Netflix (A Secret) French movie. So good. Dinner is pasta primavera. 

Today was a chill day. Work was good. Ate a late lunch at The Olive Oil with Patty then went to my Aunt Christina's and Uncle Jose's house. Good day.  Breakfast: Fruit!!! Lunch: Gyro veggie of course. This Te they added olives. It was so good!  I didn't have "dinner" because of the late lunch but I had apples and pineapple. Lol.  Pineapples on the way to their house and while I was there I had two apples w lemon on top. My favorite way to eat apples.  They had papaya and I've never had it. Lily and Goodie (Aunt Christina) say it smells like feet. Jose says it doesn't and its so good! I tried some and it tasted good but it did stink. I felt like the smell was the after taste in my mouth. Lol 

My Sonner is going to intermediate school. Wow. I'm aging :( he loves his GodMomma. I asked him who told you to grow up. He said God. Love him.  Lunch: Wrap w tomato avocado hummus "cheese" and "lunch meat" w berries on the side. Soooooo good!  Dinner was surprisingly good. For dinner after Sonner's award ceremony we went to Monterey's Little Mexico. It's not a secret I'm not a fan of Tex-Mex so when they had a stuffed avocado on the menu am it wasn't fried I was all about it. Avocado is filled w veggies w rice and beans.  I didn't eat the beans because they had bacon in them. But really good meal.  Mimi and I in the truck. 

No breakfast today. Womp.  Lunch. Left overs from Monday's dinner. So good.  Dinner was light. It was spring rolls w tofu and mint. It was good.  Snack after dinner. Popcorn! 

We went to Just Burgers!!!! Long story short they make the best burgers. Obviously I'm not eating burgers. I called Chef and he said he would hook me up. He did! He made me a veggie burger. It had sautéed onions a portobello squash and zucchini on rye. I was in heaven. O! It also had sliced avocado on top. I had a side of onion rings. Omg they were so good!  We also got fried ores. One for Patty one for Sully and one for me :)  I ate a big lunch because today is La's bday and we went to Bucca di Beppo. Although the only thing that was vegan was green beans (their words) I ordered the apple gorgonzola salad w the dressing and cheese on the side. Pokey are the cheese and they gave me olive oil. It was good. Very accommodating. I love that place. I just need to go back when I'm not eating vegan style. I had an adult beverage :) it was really good. I'm full! Good night world :)  

Home stretch guys. 10 days till this challenge is over. I'm proud of myself. :)  Skipped breakfast. Not so good but Lily and I went grocery shopping. This is how we spend our Monday mornings (so domesticated)  Monday afternoons are lunch! I made red quinoa with coconut curry cauliflower and carrots w onions. It's so good. Lily never had curry anything. I'm glad she likes it. Then we saw an artichoke at HEB and she asked if I ever had it before. I have so I made it for her.  Bernard leaves tomorrow so tonight I made dinner for him Rebecca Rachel and Bobby. Dinner was good! I'm glad they all like veggies. I made a pasta sauce to go over yam noodles and made spinach and chickpeas and pizza on flat bread. All delish!  Dessert was "ice cream" frozen banana and strawberries. Yummo Everyone is gone now and I put Travel Channel's Burgerland on. Now he's hungry all over again. He made a vegan burger patty w bell pepper and ham to make it "Mexican" on ...
