Melinda and I were glad to be sleeping in our own beds last night. Being home makes it easier for figuring out the meals for Abigail.
The gram scale we got is easy to use...two buttons, however at 6am I kept hitting the off button to zero out the scale. Did it twice.
Breakfast was a modest affair of Eggs, Bacon, Heavy Whipping Cream(HWC), and Butter.
Lunch Number One: HWC, Pork Rinds (calling them chips) with butter on them. Special thanks to Melinda (the vegetarian) for smearing the butter on the pork rinds.
Many jokes abound about the vegetarian who married the Jew, and are serving dairy and pork on the same plate to their child.
We are planning out lunch number two and dinner. Abigail has stopped liking mayonnaise and we are looking at Brie as a replacement.
Abigail's eating schedule:
Breakfast: 6:30
Lunch 1: 10:30
Lunch 2: 2:30
Dinner: 6:30
We have yet to figure out daycare snacks and how to handle that but we have till next week to get it all nailed down.
We are going to spend today and tomorrow focusing on meal planning and experimenting with different foods.
We miss Shelby and look forward to seeing her when she gets outs of school today! Abigail keeps asking for her and I am sure will lock her into a fierce headlock the instant she sees her!
Abigail loves the pork rinds with butter...I have been watching her chow them down with great gusto.

Oooh, I never thought of using brie cheese. I wonder if my daughter would like it... she probably would, since she's such a cheese fiend.
What are pork rinds?
Welcome home!
Thanks!
Pork Rinds are deep fried pig skin sections. Yes I know....nasty. However if your daughter likes chips like ours did then they are a great substitute. Very crunchy. They give you the points you need for protein and the fat, add butter and you have a whole meal with the whipping cream to wash it down...great traveling food, she could munch on a bag out of the cooler while stuck in her car seat!
Have you used kelp noodles yet? We mixed pesto and salami in and she went nuts for it. Its the closest thing we can find to spaghetti! And the whole thing is exactly 4:1 ratio so if she does not eat the whole thing we are fine.
