Looking through the pantry today has been very educational.

I’ve always said my four basic food groups are caffeine, nicotine, fat, and salt, but until I started reading labels today, I didn’t realize how true that actually is.

BJ has to go to the hospital Monday morning for some blood work, and the doctor said no fat at all on Sunday.  So I’m trying to find fat-free stuff to munch on, and a dietpill has nothing to do with it.

Obviously, meat and cheese are out — the main components in our diet, by the way — but so too are olives, pretzels, canned corn, and a whole bunch of other stuff.  So BJ’s fine dining tomorrow will consist of apple slices and Jello, I’m afraid.   But it’ll be okay.  Tuesday’s menu:  steaks, baked potatoes dripping in butter, and a honkin’ big slice of cheescake.
