Food log: Monday, November 16

Toasts with cream cheese



Clementine from the bistro at work - free



Almonds from home



Lots of water

I don't know if you have noticed, but I have reduced my Diet Coke intake by about 75%. Water helps. I had massive headaches for the first week, but it's getting better now.

Squash soup, cheese manicotti, bread, salad, fruit, lemonade
$6 from the bistro

This soup was one of the best thing I've had in a long time, full of wintery spices and extra-velvety.

Rice Krispy square from the bistro - free



Crackers and margarine

In honor of Twitter friend Le Nutritionniste, who keeps getting crappy promo documents from Becel. If you can read French, I highly recommend his blog !

Salad, broccoli turnovers, Orangina



Chocolate gaufrettes

These make me feel like I am a kid again.

Scrambled eggs, bacon, toast


Chicken and noodle soup

A.K.A. the only thing I could eat and not feel sick after crying and mourning my cat all afternoon. :(

Fortunatly, Patrick and Nikki had a bunch on neighbours over for a get together. We watched a documentary about Whippet cookies. These cookies used to be manufactured where we all live now. It was a lot of fun and made me forget about my cat for a while.

Croissant


Chips, dip, sour cream and a beer


Leftover pizza


Bread, St-André cheese, pepper jelly


Eggs and toast


Chocolate gauffrettes


So many carbs. And beer in the afternoon? I think I was trying to self medicate. My cat passed away and it was a very, very hard day. I blogged about it on my French blog, for those who can read it.

Here I am enjoying a frosted treat!


Martin was coming over so I stopped at the market for a few goodies.

Dinner


This has been a rough week. My cat has been sick for a long time and Saturday was the date she was going to the vet to be sent to kitty heaven. I've been dealing with this as best as I can, but it's really hard. How do you say goodbye to a pet you've lived with for 14 years? The only way I could think of was to spoil her rotten.  So I gave her foie gras pâté and an oyster for dinner.




We ended the feast with a bit of whisky (and a few tears) to toast my beloved cat

Farewell, my friend. I will miss you with all of my heart.
