Week 12, Day 2

Breakfast: Cress had oatmeal and toast (using the last batch of bread which isn't quite gone), Jason had a breakfast burrito and I had a scramble.  Dai and Phyllis had oatmeal.

Lunches: Still had peanut butter crackers.  We have not yet sliced the bread.  Even when we do, we want to use up the old bread first.  Jason had a burrito but he had so many WW points left that I think he should take two for lunch in future. Technically, he worked from home today, but you get the idea.  I had a salad with parmesan, my white dressing and turkey sandwich meat.  It was good!

Dinner: Taco salad - used the leftover black beans - and it was a close thing because there was only a quarter cup of beans left.

Both Jason and I ended up with WW points at the end of the day.  But I didn't feel like eating anything - popcorn maybe but not enough so we just left the day with some points.  I think Jason needs to watch his more - because he feels it more.  It didn't help that he ate 8 points worth of chocolate and till ended up with points left.

As I was grinding the wheat for bread yesterday - I did  a batch with very coarse grain in the middle.  Supposedly it helps keep the stones cleaned.  Then I sifted out the cracked wheat and reground the rest with the remaining wheat.  I left the cracked wheat in a bowl near the grinder.  Dai saw the cracked wheat on the counter today and asked if we were having cracked wheat for breakfast tomorrow.  I told her more likely Saturday - and she was bummed because she won't eat with us because she will be at a slumber party.  The other girls eat it (Cress prefers red wheat she says to white wheat, so lucky her) , but it isn't their favorite.  Dai loves it, though.
