4:17 P.M.
I got hungry since I ate the muffin so I had a small slice of watermelon and a pear. This adheres to Food Rule #1, Eat nutritionally dense foods. Also to Food Rule #2, Eat to 80% of your capacity. I feel very sated right now.
Just learned that my daughter gets asked at school all the time, "What are you eating? That looks good," from the other kids. Only she and another boy who we know are the only kids in the class who bring home-made foods from home and not from a package. And they wish their parents did this for them as well, they apparently say to them.
Well, there's a good reason for this. These kids in Grade 2 seem to inherently understand Food Rule #1: Eat food dense in nutrients. Real food. These kids are probably eating a lot of packaged non-foods, and the kids are hip to it. They know deep inside they're not getting what they need. Chances are if it comes from a package, it's just a bunch of empty carbs. Nothing for little boys and girls to grow big and strong from.
Ah, but they drink milk and they eat meat, don't forget that. I think I see a red herring swimming up at me...
For dinner tonight? Pizza!
Eat B(right),
