Carrie: Day 10&11 - Let the boredom begin...

Well, thank goodness the weekend is just one day away - I've been so busy with the medical planning course that I have had zero time to pursue any interesting food choices! I'm SO ready to get home and be done with this hotel mini-fridge business... 8 days!! Also, in case anyone is looking for some new recipes, I was chatting with a vegan girl in my class today and she recommended ohsheglows.com - I obviously haven't had the chance to try any of the recipes, but I took a look and there are definitely some interesting items on there! Might be worth a few minutes to browse and see if anything strikes your fancy.

Wednesday for lunch I tried to mix up the foods in my fridge and put together a brown rice and avocado wrap with the whole wheat tortillas. Not terrible, but man it needed some vinegar, lemon juice, ANYTHING to add a little something.

Thursday was actually the first day I managed to forget my lunch... Oops! I went back to Subway for another veggie delight. After Wednesday's lunch episode, I sure was glad to have access to some sauce - even if it was just vinegar! The veggies were pretty fresh and the bread nice and soft, so all-in-all it was probably a pretty good day to accidentally leave my lunch in the hotel! For dinner, I put some of the kale and black bean soup from last week over brown rice. Added a little extra and was very satisfying.

This weekend I will be studying and writing up briefs that are due for next week, but I am going to try to get out there and try some interesting new choices!

In other news, one of my fellow officers had a meatball sandwich at lunch, and for once I didn't feel the urge to snatch it out of his hands and bury my face in it - I think they call that progress?
