First Investment, Day 4

Breakfast (granola, almond milk, blueberries)

Lunch (the last of the leftovers)

Dinner (Sandwich - bread, veggie burger, avocado, tomato, salk and a glass of white wine with blueberries, raspberries, and cherries).

I feel like so far this project has emphasized how little time I have to cook and eat, and that so many meals are just on the go, or hastily dashed off. I had envisioned images of lovingly prepared meals, instead of things just slapped together.

At this moment, I find that kind of depressing. I don't think it's because of some food reasoning like I'm not getting enough protein, I'm just aware of how crazy-overwhelmed-busy I am. This project was about examining the difficulties, but I think the real difficulty is just so many demands and commitments on my time. It's Friday, and even tomorrow I will be teaching a workshop - no rest till Sunday, then the week starts again.

First Investment, Day 3

Breakfast (granola and almond milk)

Lunch (bread, garlic hummus, avacado, tomato, salt)

Dinner (still leftovers)

One of the things this project has made me realize is how I sometimes skip meals, especially when I'm overly busy. I was considering skipping dinner last night and just going to bed, as the time I finally got to eat was after 10 PM. However, it felt important for this narrative to structure it with three meals a day, so I ate a meal. Probably not a bad thing.

First Investment, Day 2

Breakfast (granola, almond milk, mango).

Lunch (leftovers from last night - roasted vegetables and brown rice).

Dinner - at Cafe Colucca with friends!

I've never been a food poster, really. And posting these images the past two days made me realize that this process of documentation makes me a bit uncomfortable, like I am seeking approval. Not sure what to make of this, yet.
