Y is for yogurt and yams! Yes! Baked a few yams and brought some yogurt to work, then more yam and yogurt for dinner.One more day and the month is over. Still lots of planning for Oscar night, but it's been crazy.
X is for…
X is for...the spot? Or at least the spot where people would be most likely to break. Twenty-four consecutive days of alphabet eating and you are stuck with a day that has essentially no edible items. Sure you can find the occasional Xtreme candy or gum, but standard food fare is non-existent when it comes …
W is for…
W is for waffles!!! Also walnuts. Haven't had Eggos in forever and it was nice to have a convenient food source throughout the day. Waffles for breakfast, waffles and walnuts for lunch and more waffles for dinner. Hooray!
V is for…
V is for vegetables and vanilla in various variations. Vanilla pudding, V8 fusion and five Campbell's V soups: Vegetable, Old-fashioned vegetable, vegetarian, vegetable beef and vegetable orzo. So much soup! Still kind of exhausted after the marathon. Making some progress on the Oscar front though but now for bed.
U is for…
Welcome to the week of doom! Just as one is getting used to the challenge (or as used to as you can for eating differently alliterative foods each day) the alphabet springs on U, V, W, X, Y and Z. Couple that with preparing for an Oscar party and it leads to an interesting week. …
T is for…
T is for...maraThons! Woke up early and headed down to the race. Training for this time was much less than last, but I still managed to finish due to a mid-race swap of my knee brace. But a runner's got to eat:Breakfast: T is for training fuel! A protein bar and Gatorade during the race …

Then it is for a lot of a few things.Breakfast: Raisins and Reece's Pieces!Lunch: More raisins and Reece's Pieces.Dinner: Ramen noodles!Dessert: Reece's Pieces!Never had a chance to get to the rainbow chard and rice, but giant …
Q is for…
Q is for quiche, quail and quince...none of which I had today.Breakfast: Big bowl o' quinoa.Lunch: Quesadillas!Dinner: More quesadillas, including one who forgot Pacman should have been yesterday.Now that my tortilla and cheese stomach feels like a party the size of the Queen Mary I'm ready for bed. Tomorrow's busy day will be a run …
P is for…
P is for plethoras of food! Seriously there were so many things that I couldn't make room for in the day. A short list: potatoes, pie, pork, pudding, pumpkin, popsicle, pasta, peaches, pancakes, popcorn, and pineapples. What I did have, however, was:Breakfast: PearsLunch: PizzaDinner: PirogisTomorrow is about the opposite of 'P', although 'Q's last of …
