I can't believe it. I just cooked a completely spontaneous, pure 'grand improvisation' fancy dinner, and it turned out delicious. I mean, usually if I want something more complicated than scrambled eggs, I need to follow a recipe. From a book. Or, to be precise, from my Weight Watchers cookbook.:) But today I didn't feel like poring over recipes, and I hadn't bought ingredients for any specific dish. I just had a lot of stuff in the fridge, left over from previous culinary endeavors.:) So my policy was to use whatever I can, before it spoils and lands in the garbage. I just never expected this would lead to a truly remarkable meal. I guess there is hope for me in the culinary department, after all.:P
( Okay... so here's what I did. )
In other related news, Weight Watchers at work is officially over. My final score? 12 lbs down. So I was actually very close to achieving my 10% goal. And now that I have my own scale at home, I can see the weight dropping in small increments almost day by day. It's tricky, though, because if you weigh yourself more than once daily, at various hours, the results tend to fluctuate a lot. For example, it seems normal to be about a pound heavier at the end of the day than in the morning. I guess I just have to pick a particular time for stepping on the scale (e.g. right after getting up, before I put on clothes, have breakfast etc.). Less confusing that way. Or I could still just weigh myself once a week - but it's hard to keep away from the scale when the numbers actually go DOWN.:]
