It's Friday night. I raced home from work while my hubby picked up the kids.
The kids come running in the house at 5:45. The two year old states "I want bagel bites for dinner". The six year old states "I want cereal"! Doh!
I cave in. I'm tired. I make bagel bites, with organic strawberries on the side with an unsweetened applesauce chaser, which the 2 year old grazes on for an hour.
The six year old scarfs a bowl of Cheerios with organic milk and strawberries.
While hubby takes the girls up for a bath, I get to work on our dinner. A huge helping of sautéed veggies (onions, baby bellas, carrots and peppers), turkey burgers without buns and a small helping of baked French fries (most of which the girls take off of our plates).
We eat by the fire, while the girls watch a movie, with the shabbat candles burning nearby.
Once again, not a perfect nutritional night, but it is our reality.
Did I mentioned. The red wine for my heart health? Always :)
Bon appetit!
