Feb. 12: What I Ate. Old, New, Borrowed, Blue (Not Necessarily in That Order).

Saturday’s yummy breakfast, something new(ish): wheat berries, skim milk, apples, walnuts, raisins, cinnamon.

Saturday afternoon banana:

Saturday lunch, something borrowed (recipes/ideas, that is): another big arugula salad, with white-bean-puree dip and whole-wheat pita.

Saturday dinner, something old: leftover black bean soup and brown rice.

Saturday dessert: something blue. Siggi’s blueberry yogurt with fresh blueberries crammed in.

Evaluation:

Healthy? I’d say quite.

Financially smart? Siggi’s is pricey. So are blueberries out of season, but otherwise, pretty economical.

Slowness and mindfulness? Not so much.

Satisfying? Very much.

Environmentally friendly: local, organic? I believe the arugula is local, and that’s about it.
