Food - This Is Too Easy

Watch now I'll forget to post tomorrow and screw up now that I said that.

Today was the first day of nannying and working at the diner. Do you know what that means? Lunch and dinner for free, bitches! Like Applebees, I'm eating good in the neighborhood!

Breakfast - orange juice, fruit salad and half a bagel with peanut butter
Lunch - courtesy of Nora's mom, my old teacher - salmon and rice and veggies and iced tea
Snack - ice cream with strawberries
Dinner - meatballs and pasta and garlic bread and salad
Dessert - pineapple

Today was a good food day for sure. Mondays are always good food days at home but it's even easier when I'm working. Even with the EBT card, for four people, one of whom who is like, an eating machine, it is not enough. On one hand, when we're all home, Aunt Elaine can't get away with eating all the food because we're there and we'll see it. But if we're all home that means we're eating all the meals at home too.

Now that everyone's summer stuff has started, the only one of us eating all three meals at home is Alex. I mean, she eats lunch at camp but she has to bring it from home. But Danielle and I have lunch paid for and if I'm working I can eat dinner at the diner.

The only bad thing about eating at the diner is that it's not healthy. None of the food is organic at all. Portions are retardedly huge, everything is cooked with tons of butter. Maybe I should get a job at Trader Joes. I wonder if employees get discounts.

Dude, maybe I should get a part time job at a restraunt... lately it's been choosing between eating or having the gas to get to work. Doesn't your work have steamed veggies or salads or fish, those all seem like relatively healthy choices. And beware, just because it says it's organic doens't necessarily mean it has never had chemicals used on it. There are no regulations on "organic" labels, so be careful for that!

Dear Awesome Anon Person With the Links:

Thank you so much for that! I am totally going to see if we can hit up breakfasts from now on and still get to our places on time.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
