Texty cuteness.

[spritechan]

It's cute when you ask your boyfriend what he's doing at work and he says,

"Just thinking about the future a lot actually! XD"

I reply, "Whatcha thinking bout?!"

He says, "Everything! What I wanna go back to school for, where and when we will go when we leave MN, how many kids I want, the timing of the kids, etc! So much to think about!"

Awww.

I feel guilty when I eat cereal. Cause like, I KNOW I shouldn't be consuming so much grain. Bread too. But right now, cereal is the easiest way to not spend so much money while being able to get enough for both of us before we move. And Steve has already promised me that he's basically switching to a cereal diet when we move, because that's how he likes it. So I might have to plan for food for just me, other than bentos and the occasional meal. I want that book on nutrition, dammit! I'm pretty much obsessed with food, and Steve takes any chance he gets to point out that I sound just like my parents, and that I'm kind of a "food elitist" now. Which... is likely true, but I didn't realize how important food was before!

As a result of his trying to make me feel guilty for stopping drinking energy drinks, I was teasing him the other day that in drinking his energy drinks, he's basically consuming pure cancer. XD He's cut way back though - I haven't seen him drink any at home in awhile. He's actually down to one a day. Tea is like my lifesaver. It helps me consume a lot more water than I normally would have (and I currently only drink out of a travel mug, so it's 16oz - and hey, I just noticed it's a Starbucks mug... weird! I don't drink Starbucks), AND keeps me from drinking soda.

Haha--you should have seen me trying to figure out why my Word was saying that certain things aren't words...because they were YIDDISH and I didn't even KNOW. Then I realized that I'd never seen it spelt out, and I finally realized that they couldn't be English. Things like "tchotchkes," "kvetch," "bobkes," "khutspe," "nosh," "shlep" and "shtik." XD It's amazing what you pick up as a child that you don't realize until later you're the only person who understands these words. And that you know what challah is, and how to say it right. XD

But, yes. Muesli, especially made-yourself muesli, is really good. There are as many different types of packaged muesli as there are different types of bread in the bread aisle. I would suggest looking for one that sounds yummy and giving it a shot. If you try like, two or three, with little success, consider making your own. You can buy the ingredients in the bulk item aisle, which is cheaper than the packaged versions.

We found almond milk sold by the same volume as milk in the aisle with the milk (rather than the dry goods aisle where you can find the small boxes). It's next to soy, and sometimes coconut, milk. This gets us through a good while, even using it for the base of many of our smoothies.
