New Meal
So I’ve been getting tired of pasta lately. So all I would want to eat would be lettuce, maybe some toast, and sometimes popcorn. While I know lettuce is healthy, I don’t think I was getting enough energy from it. So I would eat pasta anyway. I do get into lettuce phases I’ve decided. After my senior year of high school, all I would eat were salads and vegetarian subway subs, with lettuce and all the vegetables. But that’s when I started losing weight, and now I know if I lose weight, people worry about me. I think I had another lettuce phase in college, and I guess I’ve been getting back into it lately. But now I’ve found something else I can eat, that is fairly cheap, and maybe even fairly healthy, and will fill me up like pasta: rice.
I’ve never been a huge fan of rice, except Chinese fried rice, until I had Indian food. And I decided I love Basmati rice. So when I went to the grocery, I decided to get some Basmati, and then I thought I need something to put on it. So since my favorite part of Indian meals is the sauces, I decided to get some of that. There were tikka masala and korma sauces on sale, so I got a jar each of those. And I made rice for lunch with the tikka masala sauce. And it was great. My new favorite meal. I also had a spring roll with it (I had gotten 4 on sale the other day). Then in the evening, I thought, Indian restaurants have potatoes sometimes in their meals. And I’ve been getting tired of my plain baked potatoes with butter. So I chopped up a potato, fried it a little, and then put some tikka masala sauce on it for a side dish with a sandwich. It was also really good. So now I have two more meals to add to my staple foods. Makes me happy.
Oh, and on a side note, Janet and Jerome have their little girl. They’re still in Guatemala at a hotel. They chose the name, Juliana Molina Dixon. I can’t wait to see her!
