Day 223

So I broke the "homemade" trend first thing in the morning with a bowl of cereal, and paid the price for it all day. I felt so bad I didn't even get a run in. I'm not sure if it's the high fiber content or the milk still. This has been an ongoing problem that I tried to solve with soy milk, but didn't see much difference, so maybe it's just the high fiber bit? Regardless, I will NOT be having cereal for breakfast today. Though, that leaves the question, what the heck am I gonna have???

Picked up the "new" food processor last night, washed it out and chopped fresh broccoli and then put it in a bowl of water with some bullion and herbs and stuck it in the microwave for 5 minutes to steam. Strained it and plopped it on my baked potato with some non-butter and light sour cream. Was pretty good. Could have used a couple more minutes of steaming as it was still crunchy. Then use the food processor to whip up some shortbread dough. Man, that made it worth the $15 right there! Did you know there are only 3 ingredients in shortbread? Yeah. Flour, sugar and butter. So easy and we usually have them all in the house. 25 minutes on 325 and you have awesome homemade cookies. Can't eat too many though, because of the butter. Not sure my program has the correct calorie count, but still.
