I don’t know what happened but sometime mid-week I lost my breakfast appetite.  It is the weirdest thing.  I wake up hungry, but then I work out so my stomach falls asleep or something.  And then I make tea and feed P and wait for my body to feel like food…and it takes a LONG TIME!  So bizarre.  Usually my breakfast cravings are my strongest.  It’s my favorite meal after all. I only ate eggs two days this week!  It’s like I’m teething too.  [P has had a mediocre appetite as well thanks to what is… Read more >

P was over the turkey by day two though. I took a few pics, but I can assure you there were plentyyyyyy more I didn’t photograph. I made a mayo/cranberry sauce chutney of sorts to eat with the turkey since I didn’t have gravy.  That and avocado… Read more >
