Thursdays are usually a busy day for me. I volunteer at Everyday Joe's Coffee Shop downtown from 7AM-11AM every Thursday. I love it, but the early mornings loaded with caffeine usually leave me exhausted by the afternoon. I came home, grabbed my workout gear and hit the gym. I have no time to waste now that I am officially registered for the Tough Mudder in June.
Needless to say, by the time I came home and regained my composure, I was starving. I needed food and fast. Vanessa and I decided to make turkey sandwiches, and it wasn't until mid-process that we realized we still had turkey bacon and could make BLT's! So off we went. The following are todays delectable meal choice. Only four more days of this cleanse!!
I used dijon mustard instead of mayo and lightly salt and peppered the tomatoes.
Turkey bacon is so delicious when you are deprived of the real thing. Especially on a sandwich!

All this healthy eating has been a lot of fun for me. It's forced us to cook the meals that I've been posting about. Thus, I've had the opportunity to photograph, and then write about, each of our meals. Food is becoming an entirely new entity to me. It is so much more than just a compilation of flavors and meeting nutritional needs. Food, in its abundant variety, has become an art project for me. It's not only something to be tasted, but looked at, felt, and savored. Ah, food, thou art becoming my life.
