consists of steamed green beans (love those frozen steam-ready bags), half a chicken breast left over from enchiladas a few nights ago, salsa, and a mozzarella string cheeseover the top. And maybe some crackers and grapes later if I'm still hungry.

I tend to skip the protein and eat carb heavy, but I'm learning that is the main reason I can't lose weight - even if I'm good with calories and the kind of food I'm eating.

This actually tastes pretty good. Maybe I'll skip the crackers - I know my nutritionist would be happier if I did!

Knitting content coming soon...

I've been trying to get more produce at the farmer's market and I keep meaning to keep a tally on here of what I purchase, but as you probably have noticed I haven't been posting much.

Last week at the Harvard Square Farmers Market I bought 4 zucchini, fava beans (yum!), and Narragansett Creamery Angelito Herb & Garlic Spread.

This week I went looking for more fava beans, but there were none to be found. Maybe I got them at the Davis Square market? That happens tonight. Yesterday at the Harvard Square Farmers Market I picked up Tomatoes, Broccoli,  and of course, Narragansett Creamery Angelito Herb & Garlic Spread.

It's been very stormy here, with sudden thunderstorms in the afternoon accompanied by small flash floods. I haven't looked at my garden since Sunday because I don't want to see what's been flattened until the rain is done. maybe I'll take a look tonight, just to see if I should stake anything up.
