• Aug. 15, 2006 - Another Day

Well it is another day, and I am starting to get "bored" with summer!  Its not hot enough to go swimming or complain about, the house is pretty clean (according to my standards) and I am just feeling blah and lathargic.  Time to get more fresh fruits and veggies in my diet.  I have not been eating as healthy as I should the past few weeks. 

I am making one change!  No more "sugar" in my baking and stuff!  I am experimenting with baking with either honey or maple syrup.  If I cant substitute those, then I am not going to make it!

Today is errand day and I need to go grocery shopping.  I tried making a list of buying "whole foods" at Aldi's.  Needless to say, the list was not very long.  I couldnt even include their chicken since they do stuff to it. Here is a list of things I could come up with (it doesnt have to be organic, just not processed, or as close to its natural state as possible)

Limited Variety of Fruits
Limited Variety of Vegetables
Oatmeal
Olive Oil
Eggs (I know they are probably factory farm, but they still come from chickens)
Frozen Whiting Fish (the kind without the breading)
Sour Cream (its cultured so it should be OK)
Plain Yogurt (ditto)
Cheeses are an iffy!
Corn Chips (believe it or not their corn chips are made from Corn, Oil & Salt, although the Oil is probably hydrogenated)

I also buy their tortillas, I would love to make my own, but they are so time consuming!   Well I guess that is all for now!
