    My synagogue is sending me a post-surgery recovery meal. (Everyone volunteers to contribute one dish). So far, I've got homemade bread, avocado dip, vegetable soup, quinoa, vegetable kugel, and roasted veggies. Waiting on salad and dessert. HATE having to guess at calories, but at least, I think I won't be too far off...

    How nice of them! It all sounds yummy!

    Add me! I am soooo into eating what I want! Don't get me started demonizing foods is what made me fat! Nothing is off limits for me and that actually makes me eat less junk but I do splurge sometimes!

    My daughter turned 8 over the weekend, so all full of Bloody Marys, beer, cake, and ice cream. Way more salt intake than normal and I'm 5 lbs heavier today. She wanted to go to Red Robin for dinner and "get embarrassed" by the Birthday singers - all in all a great day!

    Happy birthday to her!

    My son's birthday is Wednesday and he wants me to make jambalaya for dinner and Samoa pie for his "birthday cake."

    So by clean eating did the OP mean washin' your fruit before you eat it? Cause that's about the closes I get to clean eating. The stuff I eat and drink could kill a goat!
    And I'm comin' over for that Jambalaya and Samoa pie. I'll bring a bottle of rum. ;)

    Sorry, that was a low blow and uncalled for.

    At least I didn't share the greatest Polka ever.

    What is happening here?? I subscribe to this thread for food porn, not sports talk :confused:

    Although that Samoa pie @quiksylver296 posted definitely fits the bill!

    I've got some starter pictures of the actual pies I'm making. They don't have topping yet.


    Cream cheese, sugar, powdered sugar and caramel... After those were well-blended, I added heavy cream and whipped until medium peaks formed. I also learned what "medium peaks" meant. ;)

    Two with Oreo crust, one with shortbread crust.

    I may not like your football team but I like your pies!

    Leftover buffalo chicken pizza for breakfast AND lunch today. YUM (and I logged it)! Then I reset and go back into weight loss mode. Want to be back in the mid-170's by July 14th.

    If a Snickers bar fits my calories for a snack, I have a Snickers. Same with chips, frozen pizzas, cookies, hot dogs, and all kinds of yummy stuff.

    I ate 1/2 a bag of potato chips last night and a beer. I'm disappointed that I didn't eat the rest of the bag.

    I must do better. Goalz man....goalz.

    Wrong. Salt and vinegar are the best.
