I walked through every grocery aisle at Target today and I came back with only diet cherry coke and gum. DIET SODA AND GUM. What the hell??? If walking up and down twenty aisles only to get an Ana's diet as acceptable food sounds fun to you, please go away and join some masochistic cult. It was so depressing. I slumped through every aisle hoping to find something fun that I haven't tried. Food hasn't been fun for a while. Dried fruit has sugar on it. Coffee creamer is made with yeast as a preservative. Every protein bar has either gluten or sugar and usually both. There is no such thing as "easy, convenient dinners." It has to be made by hand. Here is how I fix dinner.....
- Look frantically in all the cupboards and realize I don't have the correct ingredients. Damn.
- Run to Wal-Mart and pick things up.
- Wait in an incredibly long line at the only open cash register and realize I forgot an essential ingredient.
- Dash back and find the ingredient, getting thoroughly lost in the process and passing by the doughnuts I can't eat seven times
- Come home and thaw the chicken.
- Clean off every surface and spot 72 bread-crumbs.
- Freak myself out and clean again.
- Mix and slice and saute whatever.
- Scrub my own dishes.
- See bread-crumbs in the silverware drawer.
- Freak out again and clean everything.
- Serve myself dinner.
- Halfway through realize I left all my pans out.
- Get up and soak the pans in hot water and put away the refrigerated items.
- Finish eating.
- Realize I'm still hungry.
- Give up and make myself some tea and read Harry Potter.
- Is there a spell to cure Celiac yet????
