Massive overeat and alcohol/grocery shopping

June 7th, 2014 at 04:44 am

Today for lunch at work we ordered out Indian.

I ate 2 giant garlic naans, plus the whole lamb/rice dish and had taken even more home for dinner. With 2 doughnuts in the morning, and a piece of birthday cake, a couple of coffees, samosas, and margaritas with new cheese I'm about to have after I'm done with this post... I estimate it adds up to over 4,000 calories. This is a weight gain day. I should not eat like this, but if I do, it should be my favorite foods, not some short cake and mid-range Indian food(but margaritas with cheese, are on my "preferred" list).

I've been doing good avoiding big grocery shopping, but today was the day. After dinner, even though it was already 9:30 pm, I decided to get that chore out of the way so that we don't have to worry about doing it on a weekend.

So first we hit the liquor store. It has been a while since we could make it there, and we ran out of everything except the things I really don't like (Remy Martin, Gin and bourbon).

So in the liquor store:

For my premium margaritas:
Don Julio Reposado 750ml 48.99
Cointreau 750ml 33.99

Grey Goose 1L 37.99
Malbec 19.99
buzz lotta colata (tiny 1 portion thing, have no idea what it is, impulse purchase) 3.5
Dry Vermouth 5.99
Svedka colada 1L 17.99
tax 12.42
Total: 180.86

DH worked today, even though it was supposed to be his day off. And he enjoys a nice margarita and a good lychee martini just as much as I do. His overtime today should cover the liquor and give us plenty of nice hours.

The food shopping was $176.46

Some organic fruit/veggies were expensive - like avocados $3 each. Others were cheap - like a carton of strawberries for 2.99.
But I feel fruits and veggies are a must.
There were a couple of indulgences, like smoked wild salmon at $17.75 for 1/3lb. We have that once a week on a weekend brunch. Maybe I will skip it next time. And this time I bought some pecans and hazelnuts (raw, I will roast them myself, they are much fresher and tastier that way) for 18.69. Organic chicken breast was 13.43 (easy protein). And fresh fava beans were also expensive.

Everything else was just a lot of smaller, less expensive items.
