We went out to eat tonight. It was another frustrating day. The contractor
was supposed to show up (once again) to do the driveway and put in a new
toilet for us. But once again he didn't. He says he will be here tomorrow.
Oh joy!

I had some errands that I needed to run. I was going to do this stuff
tomorrow but since we will be sitting at home waiting, I decided to do them
today. So I just decided we should go out to eat. Which was a good thing
because by the time we got Angela registered for dance and donated things to
the food bank it was late! We had a case of apple juice in cute little
apple shaped bottles and another case of baked beans. Since Angela can't
have those any more, we decided to donate them. I figured I could work
single cans or packages of things into our diet but we'd never be able to
eat that whole case of beans given their carb count. Must go through the
cupboards and look for more things but want to get the toilet and driveway
taken care of first.

Anyway... She chose a veggie omelet for dinner. I never would have thought
she would chose that. It had broccoli, onions, peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms
and spinach in there. And she ate it all with no complaints. Even said she
didn't mind the mushrooms and the tomatoes were okay with cheese on them.
Normally when it comes to tomatoes she acts like my dad does when
encountering an unfamiliar spice. As in picking through it with her fork,
being careful to get every last bit out and wishing she had tweezers. But I
saw her put them in her mouth and she ATE them!

I've never really liked mushrooms. I can eat them in things and they don't
really bother me but I would never go out of my way for them. I could never
understand those people who love stuffed mushrooms. Just not my style.

So I think her tastes are changing. We also found a big can of individually
wrapped beef jerky sticks at the grocery store that don't contain wheat.
And a container of cooked, shredded chicken. They will be carrying it from
now on in the bagged salad section. Angela loves shredded chicken.
