Thursday, Going into a Busy Weekend
Sent Ken off with a full order of hot wings left over from last night and a small salad. He snacked on blueberries going out the door.
Kids had cheerios for breakfast, string cheese later for a snack.
Lunch is comming up, The kids have told me they want grilled cheese again! I guess that is their new favorite meal. I think I'll have a bowl of salad.
Dinner time will be busy, I think I'll make Steamed Chicken Breasts and Salad.
I need to go and buy some bread for tomorrow when Kenny's Mom will be here to watch all the kids.

Duplicate of Yesterday!
There isn't much left in the refrigerator/pantry guess I'll have to find time to go shopping today. We do have enough food for a duplicate of yesterday. Cheerios for breakfast, grilled cheese for lunch.
Kenny took a small salad and half a chicken breast for lunch. I saw him munch on some string cheese and pepperoni slices before we left the house today.
I don't exactly know what I'm making for dinner yet... I'll have to give that some more thought.

Garlic Fried Pork Steaks
Feeling sleepy tonight, going to pan fry some pork steaks
sautee garlic in butter, pan fry pork untill done like 8 minutes or so, add some pepper to pork. Remove from pan, brown onions, cook untill soft and yummy, add some worschestershire sauce to sauteeing onions.
The best way to have this is with applesauce, but being on Atkins we don't have any in the house. So tonight we'll have it with the last bit of the Dill Coleslaw from yesterday and some green salads.

My Mom's Birthday
Birthday's are always hard.
Started off the morning with two sick kids, so breakfast/lunch consisted of whole wheat toast with butter. I had the same, later in the day we had toast again with peanut butter on it.
Kenny had a Large Grapefruit for breakfast and tuna salad for lunch.
We had my family come over for an early dinner.
Hamburgers and Hotdogs, Kenny "hamburgers sans buns"
A very large veggie filled salad
and a sugar free coleslaw on the side
We made homemade Sugar Free Vanilla Ice Cream
We had the ice cream with regular sugary/carbolisious chocolate cake with white icing. Kenny opted out on the cake along with my sister-in-law. They had Raspberries and Blueberries instead.
We went out and Mom, Melody and I consumed large glasses of honey brewed beer, Ken and Jared stuck with water I think Ken may have had some Beer at the beginning of the night. We did have Nacho's and Hot wings to snack on. It was a party, we had to live a little bit.
