Comestible Competition – Days 1 and 2
January 18th, 2007 by Sonja

… or how I tortured the LightChildren and won the day 😉

Here’s how our first day of the Pantry Challenge 2007 went It was an average day … breakfast was regular (cereal all around … LightHusband decided to try Ezekiel 4:9 cereal last week. His review: “gravel with milk”). Lunch was a variety of frozen things that we’ve gathered over the past couple of weeks. Dinner … wow. Dinner was a buffet of appetizers … spinach-artichoke bowls, chicken nuggets, cream cheese jalapeno peppers, and french fries. BOO-YAH! Healthy living here we come.

Day 2 –

LightHusband and Children eat cereal for breakfast. LightHusband realizes that we can make bread because we have yeast in the cupboard and chortles with glee. Why o why can I not get him to understand that this is NOT about winning it’s about being creative.

I forgot to eat breakfast. This is not unusual. Then I remembered that I’m meeting a friend to workout at lunchtime. So I grab 2 eggs and toast at 11:30.

LightChildren ate lunch while I was working out. Not sure what they did. LightHusband was at a business meeting. Does this count?

As of this writing LightChildren have been given the mission to inventory our pantry and freezers. They are resistant to this. In fact, they are doing this only because their only other choice was to clean their rooms. Heaven forfend. They’re going to clean their rooms when they’re done.

Dinner tonight will be based upon the inventory.

More later …

    I’ve never tried Ezekiel cereal (not much of a cereal person) but Ezekiel bread is actually pretty good.
