An Omelet Would Have Rocked

I guess I must have been in a good mood today at lunchtime. That doesn't mean this meal will do too well on the scoreboard, however.

One slightly unusual thing about this meal is that I grabbed some rice. I did that when I realized how little food we were getting.

The more unusual thing about this meal is that I ate the salad that included some scrambled egg as well as some spinach (or other green). I wasn't happy while eating it, but I finished it.

Maybe all the years of watching the kids eat food that they don't like and/or hearing them encourage themselves and others to do the same has gotten to me.

Or perhaps I've temporarily reverted to the days when I first arrived here (more than four years ago) and simply ate everything on my tray without really thinking about it.

Whatever the case, the next time the Lunch Lady mixes eggs and spinach, perhaps she should turn them into an omelet rather than a salad.

Anyway, I also finished my soup, or at least the "meaty" part of my soup, because the liquid was overly oily, as you can probably tell by the picture.

The fish was pretty good, and I made it and the rice a bit better by eating it over rice.

The one thing I did pass on today was the two cherry tomatoes, but Hina was glad to take those off my hands.

Total points: 5

Note: Since we have the day off tomorrow, the next post will be on Wednesday. Be there or be square!
