The Healthy Diary

Hey Guys!

I hope y’all are having a great holiday season. I sure am having a great time. I mean what else could I have asked for this year!! A wonderful trip to Hawaii and then now Paris and the icing on the cake….visiting my family!!

I am hopeful about posting pretty regular soon but here’s a glimpse of some yummy typical Indian food straight form my Mamma’s kitchen!!

• Pea and green pepper veggie
• An awesome cauliflower curry
• Pickled onions
• pickled carrots
• puri

A short post for today, but I’ll be back with a full recaps I promise!! Bye for now and Good night to the western world!!

Last night when I wasn’t blogging, I was being a good wife and making some food for my dear husband who will be staying without me for the next 15 days. I feel bad for him, so I made him a lot of curries and put them in ziploc and kept them in the freezer. Won’t last him long but he can eat it when he is not in a mood to cook!

I made him:

• Mutter paneer
• Chickpea curry
• Blackeye peas curry

I am being a really bad girl these days and not eating breakfast. In the haste of getting out of the house and late night studying my life has been a mess lately. But it is all back to normal. Semester is over!!!

Lunch was a spicy shrimp roll sushi from Kroger. I ate half and saved the rest for dinner!

Snack 1: Mary Crackers – black pepper about 16

Dinner: I don’t like dining solo Missing you DH!

I got my brother this truffle mix from Godiva. I’ll show you the contents when he opens it.

I signed up and became a Godiva member and got a free Candy Cane truffle.

The sweet tooth was really kicking in.  We had a X’mas party at the lab today, I saved this cookie and ate it while packing. Eating too much sweet is not good for people who have a bad a tooth and need a root canal..Oh well!!

I am done,

Off to packing I go!!!

This time tomorrow I’ll be thousands of  feet above the ground!!

See ya guys!!!!

Just two more questions and I will be done with this test and this semester! I wouldn’t have done this post today but I had to show you guys my new toy. For our trip to Paris we needed a new camera as our older one is a little outdated. This one fit the bill perfectly. I am one happy girl.

Here’s my beautiful baby- Canon SX20 IS

Breakfast- I had no time for a hot breakfast. Woke up, showered, granola+milk and tea! No time for coffee

Mid morning snack this Iced it was so so good!!

Lunch Amy’s Mexican bean casserole with 1/2 the wheat thins.

Working on the test with my lunch.

It was good just a tad bit less salt.

Mid afternoon snack: Dried fruits + remaining 1/2 of the wheat thins

My busy desk

Snack 2: NO diet SODA…seee!

Solo dinner: Sauteed mixed veggies on brown rice topped with Sriratcha+ feta + red pepper flakes with Sugar plum spice tea.

Finally I am going to tape my eyes and keep working on the last leg of this test with the help of this, not my favorite flavor.

When i see you tomorrow, I’ll be done with this semester!!!
