The grandparents came over and watched the boys for a bit this morning so that the hippie and I could go to the farmers market without them, run a couple of errands, and go to a belated hippie birthday brunch. We went to Toast Cafe in Cary, and I am happy to say that I resisted things like blueberry pancakes and corned beef hash in favor of what turned out to be an AMAZING omelet. Its listed ingredients were Parmesan, avocado, tomato, and bacon, and it came with grits, hash browns, or fruit on the side. I asked them to sub turkey for the bacon, and by some miracle, they had turkey bacon--so good! And I subbed a salad for the fruit, and that was good, too. Highly recommend that place. Lunch was an exercise in using up things in the kitchen than needed to be eaten, but turned out to be surprisingly good. And dinner was a bit of an adventure--I handled some whole fish for the first time ever. I admit I was intimidated, but I muscled through it, and it was totally worth it! Delicious!!! I am stunned that, though I feel like I've been lazy and eaten like a pig today, I have come in under the calorie goals recommended by MyFitnessPal.
