WI Film Fest

Three movies watched, five to go. I’ll start photographing the ticket stubs with the titles tomorrow. Korean gangsters, French high school students and teacher, and the 2nd one today was Romanian.

If I intersperse the food, the way I did with TIFF, I’d have to say that Friday was an ordinary work day, foodwise – I packed cottage cheese with jam, and an apple, an orange, and a small banana. Oh, and I finished the last of the cocoa puffs, just dry to munch on – I actually weighed them and it was about a 40g serving – a little more than the 27g that equals 100 calories on the side of the box. I got home later than I wanted to, not til almost 5:30 and we had to leave for the movie at 6:15. I made melted dill cheese on store whole wheat bread with hardboiled eggs sliced on top. A fork and knife sandwich, and I piled on horseradish. And I had a glass of Cabernet at the movie – at Sundance so a real glass.

Cheerios for breakfast – unlike cocoa puffs, these were NOT good without the milk – they tasted like they were sweetened with aspartame; somehow the milk made it all better – and I saw no sign of artificial sweetener noted on the box.

I was going to make French onion soup for dinner – I have a hunk of Gruyere to use, and plenty of onions, and I thawed out some turkey and veggie broths – but it got too late – we walked to the movies, and didn’t get home till a few minutes before 6:00, and I had to drive Al to pick up his car at the fix-it place that was 3/4 of the way to a good Chinese restaurant. So we ordered takeaway. The place was packed – I was so glad I was carrying out. Garlic green beans, that were smaller, but flat like Romano beans, Mark got fragrant chicken, Kanari egg drop soup, I got vegetable moo shoo – and wished I’d ordered pork.
