Year 2, Day 213: The Holiest Day of the Year, Lynn Wore Heels

Something I overheard today leaving the temple. Sadly for all the readers, I don't know the backstory, but you can imagine.

Almost always the easiest blog post to write, as there is only one meal today. Of course, it was a doozy. No doubt it was worth two meals. That's really not making the most of the benefit to the diet of a fast, but once you're that hungry, it's sort of hard to put the breaks on, especially when everything is in little bite-sizes.

Break-Fast (Dinner)
1 small slice challah
2 glasses red wine
1/2 piece gefilte fish
3 deviled eggs
1/2 whole wheat bagel with lox, red onion, tomato, muenster cheese
2 oz. non-reduced fat jalapeno cheese (yummy)
2 bites of Jill's Kugel
pickles, olives

Dessert
3 rugleach
1/4 slice of sponge cake

Absolutely stuffed, and was stuffed about 700 calories in. But you're sitting around, another day of atonement behind you, and you do feel celebratory. Tomorrow, it's the beginning of a new year (but not according to the way I keep my diet journal), so that's three different years to keep straight, and back on the program.

It's my favorite holiday meal...Break=Fast. All the foods I love (plus potatoes and sour cream and very little guilt after a day of relative or absolute fasting. Love, MOM
