My week

If you think the week starts on Sunday, then mine started back in Indianapolis. I got up and made a pot of coffee in the room, wrote a blog post, and then got packed and dressed. I checked out and put my stuff in the car, although to find the car, I had to walk […]

Work Winter Salads

  I bought a bunch of kale last Saturday, and I’ve been making these salads to take to work for lunch. I got my knives sharpened on MLK day, and they’re working great for shredding the kale. On Wednesday, the salad had one big leaf of kale, shredded, topped with French lentils that had been […]

It’s a long weekend

After a long week, that I’m now straining to remember. Pudding, lentils, and pig, were the food themes as I recall. I know I woke up in Chicago last Sunday morning – I drove down Friday to deliver John’s new laptop. Didn’t do much that evening – stopped at John’s apartment, found a parking spot […]

Not sure what to call this one…

I started writing down a bunch of random impressions on Tuesday, and now it’s Friday and I’m in Texas. At the metadata conference, that was in Pittsburgh the last time I went. On Monday, Rach and I went for a nice long walk in the morning. I felt like I was getting stuff done, but […]

Picture my food – day 4

On Thursday, I packed lunch for work, but tried to keep it light because I knew I was going to eat Indian for dinner. There was an event with pizza, though – faculty & instructors presenting descriptions of upcoming courses – and pizza was provided to get students to come. There was a lot left, […]

Picture my food – Day 2

So like I said, yesterday I tried to start taking pictures of everything I eat before I eat it – with mixed success. Today, I forgot once by my work breakfast time, 11:00 a.m., and then again by dinner. Man, this is hard – I went and got a hard boiled egg for a snack […]

The rest of Monday

Here’s most of the rest of Monday’s food – Even though I had such a plethora of baked goods at home, I bought a cookie at the cafe at the Wisconsin Institutes of Discovery, where I had a meeting. It’s called Aldi’s for Aldo Leoplod. Bought a cup of coffee, too. Carried it all back […]

Passover bread for breakfast & lunch

I made a PBJ out a couple slices from the loaf I kept. I took it to work and ate half for breakfast and half for snack.

Lunch

We are on day four of a set of perfect September 11th-type weather in WI – 30s and 40s at night, 70s in the day time, blue sky, clear and sunny. So I walked over to the student Union to get coffee and eat my liverwurst on homemade challah, on the terrace by the lake, […]

Heidi’s tofu broccoli asparagus salad

I get tweets from Heidi Swanson when she posts a new recipe at 101 Cookbooks. I got this one Tuesday evening while I was at the Willy Street Co-op for a Board of Director’s meeting, so I could easily pick up a box of tofu – and I had some cold cooked asparagus, and a […]
