Since Tuesday was already such a crap NS day I was feeling especially masochistic and decided to tackle the 'hamburger' option that got thrown in as one of our unrequested freebies. When I picked it up it crunched and crumbled between my fingers like a Ritz cracker...
Cuz nothing says 'Good Idea!' quite like re-hydrating a meat cracker for dinner...
The directions said to serve it with a small whole wheat roll, which I didn't have so I subbed a toasted Weight Watchers whole wheat english muffin.
Scariest part of it all?
It was tasty. Like, mmmmmm, McDonalds tasty. So if you're not a fan you can suck my nut. But if you enjoy a regular jaunt to get some Mickey Dees, you almost would not be able to tell the difference.
Which, come to think of it, really starts to scare me about what the shit is in McDonalds food...
Cyn went for the meat lasagna option and that got another resounding thumbs up for being tasty and filling.
Breakfast yesterday was their chocolate chip granola bar. It was a chocolate chip granola bar. A very small chocolate chip granola bar. With the fruit and the dairy I didn't starve to death but you wouldn't exactly call me happy yesterday morning.
Lunch was more of the 'Fettucine Alfredo', otherwise known as wet noodles in a bowl. Less water did not improve the taste at all, but it's filling and at that point that was all I cared about.
For dinner I went with the Chicken and Dumplings and made a fun salad to go with it. Seriously seriously YUM! Looks like vomit but I want some more tonight it was so good. Plus it was so filling I actually couldn't finish it. No lie.
Cyn went with the rotini and meatballs and that's another winner. The meatballs kind of reminded me of Chef Boyardee meatballs, which is fine with me cuz I enjoy me my white trash eats. Two thumbs up here again for both yum and fill-factor.
This morning I had to try some of those AIDS eggs Cyn warned me about. She wasn't kidding. I have no idea what's in that 'veggie crumble' but it tasted, looked and kind of stank of decomposing corpse. I couldn't choke it down even covered in ketchup and snuck in with real veggies.
And we get to lunch today which was their Pasta Parmesan with Brocoli which was just more flavourless wet noodles. Didn't suck, especially compared to breakfast and was filling....
Weigh in day is tomorrow so I've deliberately been staying off the scale these past 2 days.
Sorry I ain't got much else for ya right now, but we're down a ton of people at work right now so I've taken on a metric fuckload of additional projects. It's actually been fun to be this busy, but it's hell on my lj time. And with Fratboy not home nights that's devoted to the small people and then we're pretty much out of time and energy. If I manage to have a single interesting thought I promise I'll bring it here but in the meantime you'll just have to make do with the NS updates for now...
