foodie friday #27

Sticking with NaBloPoMo theme for March 'in a word'
Did you notice I was doing that?  
Using just a word to power my posts?  
I didnt think so.

Today the word is Food ... as it usually is on Friday.  
So here's the food shot: 
a salad of
spinach 
avocado 
yellow and red peppers 
bacon
shrimp (peeking out from under the spinach) 
crumbled blue cheese 
and
 a side of some dressing 
I didn't use


Its a salad this week for several reasons.  
There is no food in the house.  
Toonman was briefly back in hospital, he's home again, but while he was there I was eating rather erratically.  Some days I ate 4 or more meals
a constant hand to mouth thing out of nervousness 
other days I drank lots of coffee and noshed on something sweet  
on other days I think I may not have eaten at all.  
I've gained weight, not a lot, 
enough to make my jeans unpleasantly tight.  
Hence the salad. 
Oh, I didnt eat that this week.  
I ate that about 3 years ago at a nice outdoor cafe in South Beach.  
I am sharing it with you today in order to remind myself to get back on track to eating healthy.

Do you have any good or bad food habits brought on by stress?
Do you ask for dressing on the side?  Or do you let them ladle it on?
What kinds of salads do you like?
What's your favorite dressing?

Nosy bloggers want to know!


AND you can still enter the pass-along Jacket by leaving me a comment here on Sunday I'll announce the winner.  How will I pick a winner, I can hear you wondering ... well I'll ask Toonman to pick a number between 1 and whatever the total number of comments is .. voila!
