After being on a somewhat strict diet from the first of the year, we treated ourselves today, and went out for Chinese food. And we ate all the stuff that we have been ardently avoiding. There was not a vegetable or piece of lettuce to be found anywhere. There was pork fried rice, which I made even more rich by ladling sweet and sour sauce all over it turning it pink and making it just a bit better by adding all the chunks of candied pineapple . There were chicken wings, very sticky with sauce, sweet and sour chicken that had thick deep fried breading and beef teriyaki, as well as adult beverages. We loved every bit of it. I don't know if the food was that good, or that it tasted especially good to us because we were treating ourselves to a non-diet meal. I think probably a little of both.
Tomorrow will bring salads, veggies and lean meats, but for today, we let the fat fly! Yummy.
