Eggs, tofu, soup


By Blog of Shannon (Visit website)



Happy almost Friday!  It's been a good day in the City of Lake.  Yes, just lake since I've only been able to find one "lake" in this town.  I ran a quick 3.3 miles this morning and made eggs in a basket for breakfast:




I took two slices of Ezekiel bread and used a cup to trace a hole in the middle of each piece.  Then I took an egg and beat it in a small bowl, placed the bread on the skillet and poured the eggs in the middle:








I let them heat up for a few minutes, then carefully flipped them.  They were splendid.  Reminded me of french toast without the sugar or syrup.  I also had a satsuma.  My grandparents have orange and satsuma trees in their backyard and they sent me home with a whole basket at Thanksgiving:



Even though it hasn't frozen yet, these are really sweet!!  Nothing like homegrown produce I tell ya!  Before I left for work this morning, I massaged some kale with lemon juice and sprayed it with some EVOO in preparation for lunch.  I also rubbed 1/5 of a block of extra firm tofu with some ginger and let it marinate in 1 tsp sesame oil, 2 tsps rice vinegar.  When I made it home for lunch, I sautéed the tofu and some mushrooms in 1/2 tsp sesame oil and tossed it on the kale with a sliced radish:

 

I really like tofu.  I liken it to an artist with a blank canvas, with the tofu being the blank canvas.  Okay, maybe I'm getting a little strange on you.  What I mean is, tofu has no taste, so whatever you season/marinate it in, is what it will taste like.  Yum.  I also dug into the nut butter jar after this lunch.  I found another nut butter I love.  I guess I should call it a seed butter.



That would be sunflower seed butter, otherwise known as Sunbutter.  YUM!  FABULOUSO!  Almond butter still reigns supreme in my heart, but Sunbutter is amazing.  And for only $6/jar, it's definitely a little more wallet friendly than the $10/jar almond butter I bought a few weeks back.

Work was good today.  If you read my twitter, you saw that I made a fool out of myself while trying to talk medical speak with one of my doctors.  I was updating a form we use in clinic and removed a test that I didn't think we did.  The test was called a "Prostrate Screening, Digital."  My doctor saw that I had crossed through that term in order to remove it and told me that she did, in-fact, do that test in clinic.  I told her no, we don't as we don't have a digital machine to do the prostrate screening.  She informed me that digital meant finger and prostrate screening meant rectal exam.  Yes, as in sticking a finger (or, digit in the medical world) in to the anus (or prostrate).  I felt ridiculous for not realizing that...  Oh well, it made for a good, albeit awkward, laugh.

For dinner, I just had more soup.



Boring for the blog?  Yes.  Delicious in my stomach?  Heck yes!!  I made Thad an enchilada with organic ground beef, a La Tortilla whole grain rye wrap, fat free sour cream, enchilada sauce and lots of cheese:



Ugly picture, but he said it tasted good ;)

I forsee a cup of tea in my future!  Back to watching the Polar Express and doing some online Christmas shopping.  I doubt I'll blog tomorrow.  We have Thad's work Christmas party in Melrose tomorrow night, and I have to wake up at the crack of dawn--no before dawn--on Saturday to take my official medical coding exam.  Say a little prayer for me if you will!  It's 5.5 hours long and I have to report to the building to take the exam at 7:30am in Gainesville on a Saturday--the SEC championship Saturday no less!
