Every Wednesday there’s this fun party
About bloggers’ eats, both junk and healthy.
It’s hosted by a cool chick named Jenn,
Whose spunk will never run out ’til God knows when.
Some people call it WIAW (wee-aw), because it’s “What I Ate Wednesday,”
But since I’m such a huge a rebel, I’m showing what I ate on Monday.
Just like Maria, we’ll start from the very beginning, a very good place to start.
Cookie dough cereal with bananas and sunflower seed butter; adding blueberries was also quite smart.
I believe I also had half a nectarine,
But the photo is nowhere to be seen.
My midday meal happened late in the afternoon,
Since I woke up super late and a normal lunchtime would be too soon.
So after some yoga and chores, I ate a delicious meal,
With simple ingredients, supah fresh, and supah real.
{Except the ketchup I added to the eggs afterwards.}
A monster spring mix salad, in a bowl the size of my head,
And a toasty wheat roll with avocado and perfect scrambled eggs.
Since I always need cheese in life, I also had some brie
Atop my favorite crackers, Wheat Thins, slightly sweet and so crispy.
I had quite a few— too many to count
Later on, the same thing happened with these peanuts
I had three times this amount.
{Sweet and Salty Valencia Peanuts from Costco!}
I took a walk and visited Daliza
Because I always like to see her (say that in a British accent so it rhymes with Daliza).
Despite a late lunch and lots of snacking,
I was hungry for dinner pretty early, and my food’s flavor was not lacking.
I had leftover pasta salad with extra parmesan cheese
Plus a couple ravioli Mom cooked up, which made me quite pleased.
I used to be afraid of all these carbohydrates. I thought it would make me fat in my sleep.
How foolish that conception was, for without pasta today, I would weep.
Some veggies were thrown in there for nutrients and fun
Hey look, I could still take a picture at night by the light of the sun!
After going on a lovely evening walk with mom and dad,
I was ready for a sweet treat that’s tasty and rad
It was peanut butter banana soft serve, cool and creamy.
It’s incredibly easy to make, and it always tastes so dreamy.
I ate it with a side of Greek yogurt, because would you expect anything else?
It added a lovely tanginess, plus some extra protein for myself.
Since I’m basically nocturnal and I stay up pretty late,
I needed a little something to satisfy and satiate.
Of course, I turned to a trusty ol’ classic that never fails me:
Dried figs and Greek yogurt, the best snack that ever could be.

That concludes my day of yummy eats. I hope you enjoyed!
My poetry skills are terrible, and my brain is starting to become void.
So tell me:
Are you a good poet?
Fun fact: I won a national pro-life poetry contest in 8th grade (those skills were not reflected here today…), so I got to go to Washington D.C. to be honored for it. I met Dr. Alveda King, who is Martin Luther King Jr.’s niece!
