Hey there! Everyone survive the holidays? Ready for a nice, shiny new year? Of course you are. Of course.

Breakfast: leftover vegetable soup, coffee with peppermint mocha creamer.

Lunch: will be leftover pigs-in-a-blanket and a very basic green salad with red wine vinaigrette, maybe also a piece of last night's lemon-dill salmon.

Dinner: will be meatballs in red sauce, garlic bread, and steamed broccoli.

Snacks: proooobably popcorn with this awesome garlic-Parmesan seasoning I found last week, also an apple or a plum.

    Breakfast: instant oatmeal, corn tortilla chips, champagne

    Lunch: Leftover Alfredo pasta, baby carrots, cheesecake

    Snacks: Carmel latte, trail mix, granola bar

    Dinner: I bought a veggie sandwich. Probably more trail mix based on how hungry I already am.
