Not the fun ones we do here on-line, but a few at the doctor's. Tomorrow they are taking away my blood. I'm going to have a fasting blood draw.
Why is it, when someone tells you that you MUST fast for a mere twelve hours, that all you can think of is food??
It really wasn't on my mind as I cooked today. I missed breakfast....and lunch was delayed. I had some chicken in mid-afternoon, just before I started fixing dinner.
We had a great dinner. I made a Shrimp Bog. It's rice, tomatoes, bacon, onion and shrimp; a meal in one pot, that can be served in an elegant chaffing dish, or for a more casual dinner. I made the old broccoli cheese casserole, and an onion quiche, and a salad. The salad was Romaine, red cabbage, red pepper, julienned carrots, cucumber slices and cherry tomatos. My niece brought a fruit tart for dessert.
Now, you'd think that all that food would have been enough, but as soon as I said that I couldn't eat or drink after 9:00......immediately I was thinking of all the things I wanted to eat. I settled for a shared bag of microwaved popcorn.
I'll just have to buck up!

Isn't that the way it goes! Your supper sounds filling and fab... hope the night isn't too hard on you, Buffy.

I'm very pleased to say it was a cinch! It must have been the popcorn. *G*

Well, somehow I hope the Bog is better tasting than the name sounds. Do you know that some Brits call toilet paper Bog Paper in the UK? Anyhow, I'm sure your bog was tasty. Oos....that just doesn't sound right.
Hope the blood tests are fine.
