Day Seventeen and Eighteen

Day Seventeen:

I woke up late for my run. I needed sugar/carbs/protein + caffeine fast. For some unknown, non-time-saving reason, I decided to slice up my apple. It's a nicety that we only get from moms and grandmas; yet when we bestow it upon ourselves, it is almost just as lovely. 

Breakfast: apples, coffee, plain yogurt sweetened with agave nectar

One of my favorite meals of late: a veggie sandwich. This one is from Sprouts.

Lunch: vegetarian sandwich from Sprouts

And dinner. We celebrated our friend's birthday with the gift of Indian food.  This was his special request, so we went all out. It was phenonemal. My stomach hurt so much by the time I went to bed and I had the most bizarre dreams, fueled by food, spice, and white wine.  Good even when it's bad.

Vegetable 'nine jewel' korma

I made the Aloo Gobi!

Samosas

We bought these, didn't make them!

Day Eighteen:

Copycat breakfast:

Leftovers for lunch: 

Snack time!

plums.

Dinner: cabbage and tofu salad

I also ate more tofu nuggets. They are sort of gross to eat as a meal and look particularly so in photographs. And almonds.
