Eating Challenge
I am a twigs and berries gal - love veggies, fruits, grains (OK - and the occasional box of chocolates). If yesterday is any indication of how meals will be when we hit the road, I'm in trouble.
Mid way through watching the men's solo teams at the first part of the race, we stopped for a quick bite to eat at Jilbertos' - a little family owned mexican restaurant. I'm pretty sure the refried beans were NOT vegan. It was good...a little too good. And the hibiscus tea went well with my veggie burrito (with cheese and sour cream).
We spent the afternoon chasing the men's teams and then made our way back to Oceanside. We were back at the Best Western (Marty's Valley Inn) by 7:30pm and there was no place within walking distance to eat dinner. Papa John's pizza anyone? I had a veggie pizza delivered (more cheese). For some reason a large pizza was cheaper than a small pizza.
I got on Skype to talk to my husband Leary while eating my pizza. I ate half the pizza and as I looked at the remaining pizza slices I wished he was here. I miss him already. Plus its his job to eat the other half of the pizza like we do at home.
As I chewed on a Fiber Choice tablet before bed, I thought about my food options for the trip. My plan: to hang on to my bag of granola for dear life!
