Feed Me Seymour

I will be having surgery Monday afternoon. In order to prep for this surgery, I have to fast from midnight (this evening) until Monday evening. Yes...there's a whole day in between. Tomorrow, Sunday, I'm only allowed to drink water. If all goes well, I should be discharged from the hospital Monday evening or early Tuesday. I pray that those people feed me. My aunt K is making chocolate bread pudding tomorrow & I can't go without that for more than a day. She only makes it once every 200 Sundays.

I decided on Friday that I'd eat everything on Saturday...or at least attempt to. If I weighed 400 pounds & ate red meat, then I would've tried to tackle this ginormous creation...

How's that for a gluttonous appetite? I think I could've finished that in two weeks. That burger weighs 6 pounds. That's outrageous. See how we humans just waste food? That burger could feed a whole family & then some. So sad.

Since the burger was not an option, I opted for a health food binge. I had a veggie sub. I drove to Trader Joe's & purchased all kind of unnecessary snacks. Have you ever tried Trader Joe's Chocolate Almonds? They are so good! Trader Joe's Key Lime flavored Yogurt is delicious too. It's the only Yogurt that I'll eat. Trader Joe's is the best grocery store ever!

I ate some Curried Veggies & Rice courtesy of Genelle's Bakery on the mall. Genelle's has the best Caribbean food in the city. Until I taste better, then I'm stickin to that claim.

After eating the curry, I decided to OD on Rita's Banana Water Ice. Rita's has redeemed itself with me within the past week. I stopped patronizing the water ice joint after they discontinued the Lime flavored water ice. HOW COULD YOU DISCONTINUE THE LIME? That was your best flavor only second to the Mango. You should've gotten rid of that Orange Cream Ice crap!

I didn't finish my water ice. My brother ate it. Later that evening, I purchased a Mandarin-Chicken Salad from Wendy's. I think that ruined my binge. I wanted to finish well too. The oranges killed the salad. It was gross. I wanted to get my $4.29 back. I ended up giving the salad away to my brother. He ate it. He'll eat anything.

I tried to eat some more yogurt, but my taste buds were shot thanks to that crappy salad. Now I have to pray that I won't be tempted by food in church tomorrow morning. My pastor has a tendency to reminisce about food on the pulpit. lol.

While on the subject of food...

Kashi Go Lean cereal is quite tasty. I was a bit apprehensive to try it because it looks like little rocks. I bought a box, and I think I've found my new breakfast food.

My cousin is officially giving me cooking lessons. Everyone in my family believes that it's too late for me to learn how to cook. I say NONSENSE! I've already mastered the sweet potato pie. I have to prepare for my husband. My older brother says that I'm gonna be single forever if I can't throw down in the kitchen. I can make a mean fettucini alfredo, but my bro says that black men don't eat alfredo. He says they want collard greens & catfish. I think he's nuts, but I'll take note of his words. lol

Timi...

I actually am kinda envious of your food binge. I'm on a diet so no more food hoarding for me. FYI: Kashi Go Lean! Crunch cereal is even better than the original. Good luck on your surgery!

good luck with your procedure. Not eating sucks man. Your brother sounds like mine the human garbage disposal lol. I like those low fat chips they sale in Happy Harry's. They're made from potatoes, spinach, and tomato.

I second your comment about Trader Joe's--have you tried their chocolate covered bing cherries?! Or better yet, the guacamole flavored tortilla chips?

crappy, now i'm hungry. and i would tend to gravitate towards that burger there. i was going to say, your brother, but that would imply that i like catfish (which i never!) or that i'm cannibalistic (well, you never know...).

peace,
j.

That burger looks like a heart attack and stroke all at ONCE! 6lbs! When my nephew was born
(wassup lil man!), he was 6lbs 7oz. WOW!I would like to try that Kashi Go Lean,but it looks too much like gerbil food,so I guess it will stick to my Frosted Flakes (there GRRRRRRRRRRRReat!!)

Anyhoo, I hope everything goes well with your surgery, and I hope you get well soon!

Take Care, Peace and Blessings!
