My Paleo Diet

Breakfast started at 5 am.  I couldn’t sleep since 3:30 am for some reason so I got up and started working (I work from home).  I had a leftover boiled egg (good things to keep on hand) and a banana.  At around 9 am, it felt like lunch time (or the Hobbit’s “second breakfast”).  So I cooked a sausage patty, a couple slices of bacon, then two eggs over medium in the bacon grease.

Lunch was delayed, during which time I had a handful of nuts and some beef jerky.  I ended up shopping with my son for camping supplies and there was a McDonalds in the building (Paleo fail alert!).  But I was good.  I got a double cheeseburger off the cheapo menu, threw away the bun, scraped off the mayo and the cheese.  I still got trace amounts, but not enough to declare failure!  So two hamburger patties, a fairly thick slice of tomato, and a bit of lettuce.  When we got back home I had leftover Muffaletta salad, both plain and wrapped in a slice of ham with spicy mustard (if I can ever find brown mustard seeds I plan to make my own) and sprinkled liberally with Tabasco sauce.  Hot stuff!  Also on the side I had a sliced Roma tomato.  I couldn’t resist drenching it in Tabasco as well.  Mouth on fire!

Dinner was delayed as well, and I ended up eating the last pork rib from earlier in the week, as well as the last Scotch egg.  In fact, I just finished as I was typing this up.  These I drenched in Habanero sauce.  I also ate a whole lemon.  I love eating whole lemons and limes.  Grosses the family out.  Well, at least makes them make funny, contorted faces!
