Confessions that you probably already know

Family size.  Party platter.  These words mean nothing to me.

I can make a meal out of said portions without batting an eyelash.

I also have no issue with eating veggies and hummus for breakfast. 

I also have no issue with eating “breakfast” at noon.

Or drinking coffee, tea, and iced tea until my pee is clear.

I also enjoy eating the same things several days in a row.

Thank you Costco and thank you DKB

[Seriously, if you haven’t tried this bread, you need to get your act together.  It’s only available in stores in the Pacific Northwest, but you can order his products online]

Heel pieces are my favorite part of the loaf so Kyle always saves them for me.

I don’t photograph things once they get embarrassingly repetitive.  So even though I went through an egg sammie phase that has lasted over a week, I stopped taking pics of them after a few days.

I have mixed feelings about eggs.  Sometimes they skeeve me out, and sometimes I like ‘em. 

I just can’t seem to make up my mind.

But you can’t beat the simplicity of this combo (these are all different days’ meals, even though they all look identical).

Egg (beater) puff + Dave’s Killer Bread = hours of energy  (this sandwich legitimately holds me over longer than almost any other)

I eat the heel pieces before the rest of the loaf is finished.

I could live off bread alone.

But I always come back to my beloved produce.

And one last thing…

I also just sent off my first resume (for an RN job in So Cal)…eeek!  Beginning the application process means reality is fast approaching. 

Although getting back into the swing of things (meaning the lifestyle of the employed) may be a shock to my system at first, I am actually starting to get that anxious/excited feeling.  The one that you get when you start imagining all your future possibilities; the sense that something BIG is in store for your future.  It’s that unknown something new that’s so thrilling.  😀

Any confessions you want to share?

    I love your confessions! Very interesting to hear about others’ “deep dark secrets”. 😉
    That bread is good, huh? Gluten free? I’ll still try it. 😉

    My confession for this fine Friday morning…
    I had a job interview on Wednesday and today I find out how much they are going to be able to pay me (less than what I get paid now but the job is EXACTLY what I want to do!)… And my confession part, my boss has no idea I [want more than anything] to leave…
    We’ll see how that goes…

    Happy Friday!

    P.S. New to reading your blog but LOVE it!

    Hey Lori, So glad you found my blog – thanks for the nice comment and for reading 🙂 That sucks about the $$$ for the new job, but I guess the fact that it’s exactly what you want to do evens out the financial part. Bosses are used to this kind of thing. It comes with the territory. Happy Friday!

    Ok, enough is enough. I’m sick of hearing about this amazing DKB… I can’t get it here in the Midwest!! I think it’s about time we arrange for a blogger mail food exchange… for real… any food items you want from Chicago? I can make it happen 😉

  4. Kailey (SnackFace)

    I confess that I have been reading your posts without commenting. DAMN DROID PHONE. Makes it easy to read, impossible to comment.

    I confess that YOU make me want to eat produce for days on end.

    I confess that because of that, I wonder how much toilet paper I would go through.

    I confess that I still feel like I need to figure out what I’m doing with my life RIGHTTHISSECOND.

    I confess that I have the same feelings about eggs! Sometimes I love em, and sometimes I can’t stand the texture and think: This could have turned into a living being.

    BUT. I confess that cravings reign supreme.

    MISS YOU!! xoxoxo

    I have no problem with eating a savory breakfast…followed almost immediately by a sweet one 😛

  6. Jenny

    I drink wayyyy too much iced coffee in the summer. Sometimes use veggies as a way to get hummus into my mouth. Eating PB with a spoon right now, straight out of the jar!

  7. BroccoliHut

    I have to agree with all your confessions–nothing wrong with eating a whole tub of hummus for lunch, right?
    I’m also contemplating eating such a meal for my breakfast right now:)
    Another confession: I am kind of incapable of eating half of something; I must eat the whole apple, the whole zucchini, the whole bell pepper at one sitting. I guess it could be worse–a whole bag of cookies?

  8. Sarah @ The Smart Kitchen

    I’ve been known to eat guacamole for breakfast. I always say: much like the heart, the stomach wants what it wants. 🙂

  9. tanyasdailyproductreviews

    that bread looks so good..and your veg platter also

  10. Ethel

    BUENA SUERTE RUBIA! Aug is just around the corner. 😉

  11. Mama Pea

    I’ll be keeping my fingers and toes crossed on your job search!!!!

  12. wendy

    I eat hummus for breakfast every morning too! Yum.

  13. Jenna

    I loooove the end pieces of bread too. I wish they sold loaves just made out of them! I am moving to Seattle next month and can’t wait to get my hands on some of that bread!

  14. elise

    thats a good question! why dont they make only heel loaves. kyle hates the end pieces. so weird. guess we were made for each other 🙂 congrats on the seattle move. im heading there in a few days for the first time. ill scope out the good eats for ya!

  15. elise

    haha. so true. best to just give in to its demands than fight it!

  16. elise

    oh ditto! thats one of my biggest problems…my parents call me the finisher because anytime i come home i finish off any open and partially eaten things. heaven forbid something actually last more than one serving!

  17. elise

    i miss you too! that rightthissecond feeling will pass. try to enjoy the fact that you are young and have options aplenty, even if you feel like you dont.

  18. Jenna

    Good luckkkkk!

  19. Brooke

    1) I feel the same way about eggs. One week, I eat them urryday and am obsessed. The next week (aka: this week), I’m sooooo freaked out by them and think they sceevy mcskeevston.

    2) I’m sad the alcohol honeymoon is over 🙁

  20. Bekah

    Oooh good luck job hunting! Southern california would be awessomeee. I think you’d fit right in with your love of fruit, veggies and hummus. just sayin.

    As for your eggs? I love it, but I think you gotta get over your mixed feelings. Either you’ve probably not tasted a very good egg, or you had some sort of bad experience, (like being serve too raw of an egg, or scrambled eggs that got cold) and that experience has just left a bad taste in your mouth.
