It was beautiful. Really it was.
Thawed shrimp sitting in a mixture of onion powder, chili powder and ginger powder, add some sundried tomato slices that i cut up. The tomato had been marinating in olive oil and roasted garlic, so it was tasty. I tossed some of the oil in with the tomato bits for some extra flavor and sauted my shrimp and sun-dried tomato combo.
At the same time I sliced up romaine, added regular grape tomato, and almond slices. Tossed that with soy ginger dressing. (Carefully measured so as not to be too much.)
Once shrimp are pink and curled and tomato are soft and yummy, dump that plus the extra bit of oil in the pan over the tossed/dressed salad and prepare to eat.
Sounds tasty, doesn't it? I think it does.
However, I had less than two bites of it before I managed to knock over my bowl and send it all spilling on to the freaking living room rug.
I was so angry. And because it fell on rug, it was fuzzy and gross and completely ruined.
I've been having so much difficulty cooking. I look in the fridge and am completely overwhelmed. I hate food. I hate my body. I hate being ill. I hate worrying if I'm sick. I hate, hate, hate. And i'd fucking made myself a healthy fucking dinner and managed to fuck it up.
On top of that, because it was a late day, it was 8:00 when i started eating, and i'm supposed to stop eating by then.
Terri graciously threw my salad away because I was so angry I thought i might throw it at the wall and on the floor and jump up and down. Then I cried.
I made myself some new salad minus my tasty shrimp and replaced that effective protein with a mozarella stick. Let me tell you: this. is. not. the same.
Cranky, cranky, cranky.
