Italian chocolate

Mini Babybel

Mini ice cream sandwich

Wow, I did not realize I snacked so much last night. I guess lack of protein will do that to you. Wheeeeee! Well, I did trim my Chrismast tree for four freakin' hours. I named it Mister Shinypants.

First of all, check out my Space Invaders ice cubes. Aren't they the cutest? I can't wait to make colored ones.



Cheese toast, orange juice


In the morning, Yoplait sent me a gift: A bag full of Asana products. Oh, the joys of being a food blogger!




It's a new product that is supposed to be good against bone troubles, like osteoporosis. I don't know about that part, but it tastes great. It's creamy and tastes like real yogourt and doesn't have aspartame in it (a little real sugar won't hurt you). I had one right away and one for lunch. I also gave a few to coworkers. They all liked it!
Asana yogourt

Spaghetti with meat balls, Asana yogourt

Pets de soeurs i.e. "Nun's fart" from the bistro - free

Fried rice with peas and steak



Asana yogourt



By the end of the day, my Yoplait bag was almost empty. I still have a full jar of plain yogourt, that may or may not be turned into turnip soup (the recipe was included).

And that thermal bag is pretty neat. I love that they didn't put a logo on it, otherwise I would not reuse it. Plain is best!

It's funny when I think about it. My blog is the perfect platform for this type of promo, since I blog everything I eat. I would really have to dislike a product not to try it. And if I try it, I HAVE to put it on my blog. Ha!

Sorry for the lack of bons mots this week, but it's been crazy.

Fake cheese toasts and orange juice

Morning chips and banana from the bistro (free)
Diet Coke from the vending machine ($1.25)

Cheeseburger, poutine and Orange Crush from McGill hot-dog ($7 including tip)



The joint has been revamped by the new owner, and the food is even better! I am so glad they kept to their greasy spoon origins. Old Montreal has enough chi-chi burger joints as it is.

All that junk food cut my appetite for dinner, so I only had apéro at home.

Dom Brial Muscat de Rivesaltes

Honey-like, sweet and elegant, like what you wish your first kiss had been like.

Dattes stuffed with Fourme d'Ambert

A perfect pairing with the muscat.

Snacks in the bistro: cupcake

Jessica made cookies - I had one

Tupperware party food: sandwiches, wine, tomato with cheese and pesto, ham and melon, chips


Since I will host a party myself at home in January, I got a few nice gifts!


I also purchased 2 sandwich boxes and a mixing bottle with cap during the presentation.


The grocery guy came by with $160 worth of stuff

I was kind of mad. They clearly prepared my order too soon and it spent a long while in the freezer. All of the meat, fish, sodas and a tofu dip were frozen solid. Not cool!

Sesame rice crackers at home
