Beaned Up

Saturday, February 10, 2018

As I feared, making a batch of spicy beans last night took forever.  I didn't get to sleep until well after midnight and my whole schedule is off as a result.  Way off.  Stress level is also off the charts.  Stupid work.

Breakfast:  2 eggs fried in butter, spicy beans, 4 slices Our Family bacon, coffee

Aaaarrrrrrrrrgh

I had an odd amount left over after filling my jars last night so I saved it for use this morning in the place of hash browns.  Which worked fine, though the beans easily overwhelmed the eggs.  Also, there is something about freezing and thawing the beans that deepens the flavor, makes them better.  At least I think it does.  These were not as good as the jars I've pulled out of the freezer this week.  We'll see how this batch is later.  Also of note, the bacon was not the usual thick cut, it was some regular store bacon that I bought for project since abandoned.  It was ... fantastic?!?  I may have to swtich.  We'll see if it's as good next time, I have a couple strips left for tomorrow.

Lunch:  12" antipasto pizza

At least the pizza picture isn't messed up.

This is pretty major fail.  I should know better than to sit down with access to more pizza that I should eat.  I need to portion it and put away the part that I'm not going to eat right now.  Because otherwise, I eat it.  That's what I do.  Pizza is damn kryptonite.

Dinner:   None (so far), decaf coffee

At least I wasn't hungry because I ate all that pizza between 3:00 and 3:30.  Oh, that reminds me, I did not have a cider last night.

Exercise:  Nope.  I did fish out my pedometer and put in a new battery.
