Brown Bites

Since I started getting on this healthy lifestyle or somewhat... the husband and the little one had to share what I stock in the pantry. Brown rice takes a lot of getting used to, it's not as squishy and moist as the white one even though I put a lot of water while cooking it. The husband thinks I need to cook something really special with sauce or soup so it will make up for the grits hehe!

We also eat whole grain bread now with all those whatnots and again 'gritty' as you munch on them. It may feel like some sort of punishment hahaha! So this better work! Oh and we're eating whole grain pasta to =P

I felt sick eating American junkie yesterday! Good thing there was a sandwich stop at the baseball stadium yesterday. Instead of having fatty burgers and fries, I had panini (I should have just had the vegetarian but since I was sharing it with the husband I had to settle the one with ham, cheese, and whatnots. But it was healthier alright, I ate a whole chunk of pickles for flavor and variety and some of its veggie crunch along with the tomato and onions. Yes, I eat the onions too!

Come dinner time, we would have wanted to have some Filipino food but the little one won because he likes Chili's chicken crispers, corn, and the blue juice! The big kids had the burger bites and soup. It was very filling but nothing compared to an almost home cooked meal Filipino style.

I wanted to vacuum the car, continue cleaning the house, and go to the gym to burn the guilt out but alas we arrived at almost nine and I had a scheduled online meeting. So never mind, will do extra work today.
