Daily Mealer 3/28/12

Editor's Note: I realize the articles this week are lacking, I am hoping we can get back on track with the overeating asap. If not, I may start to use Stew as the main focus of the Food Chronicles as he has been on a strict diet for the last two months and fell off a couple days ago. He has been on an increasingly fast downward spiral, binging on any and everything in sight, all week. But he is nice, and we like Stew, so it wouldn't be nearly as funny.

7:42a Enter Agnus. 12 minutes late. I spot a whole box of Raisin Bran in food purse. I don't say anything and wait for her to acknowledge me, I am still disgusted from the last minute bathroom-bombing session yesterday afternoon and the day long music debacle. She pretty much whispers "morning." I respond with a "Good Morning!!!" just to piss her off, because I know it will.

7:46a Morning cappuccino.

8:33a Clark enters, walk towards the playpen, headed directly for Agnus' lair. Slams down a package of microwave popcorn. "Oh! you brought the popcorn! Wait, that's not the same kind.......this says....fat free??" Clark replies, "Yea, it's different but still really good." "Oh..." Can I get a THANK YOU!? Or are we too overwhelmed at the absence of fat content to use our manners??

8:44pm "Spinach and garlic ravioli....that sounds delicious." In reference to today's specials. "But, I remember when I got it last time it wasn't that filling. They didn't give you a lot of raviolis" I hate when people say 'raviolis'. "I mean, its not like the raviolis were gigundamundo stuffed, which would have made up for the small serving. But they were small stuffed." 'Gigundamundo' and 'raviolis' in one sentence. Double whammy.

8:52a Shuffle shuffle over to the kitchen for a first helping of Raisin Bran. So glad I sit next to the bathroom and can witness first hand the effects of our fibery adventure we are embarking on!

8:56a "Say goodbye to Toucan Sam" as she mangles her old box of Fruit Loops and throws it in the trash. Mind you, she mumbles this while gargling and trying not to choke on/spit out her mouth full of Raisin Bran. 

10:14a Spoon jingling inside coffee mug....files blocking my view.......

10:34a Walks out of lair, coffee mug and spoon in hand, states, "It's a soup day." as she walks past my desk, into the bathroom to, hopefully, do number one, not two...and wash her mug/spoon, a morning tradition. 

10:52a Sandwich baggie chock full of Chex Mix makes first appearance.

10:58a Finally digs into above mentioned treat.

11:06a I discover the songs "Sweet Maree" and "The Window" by Steve Miller Band. Bliss. Please indulge at some point. (and I don't like it because it's Maree, that's just a bonus.)

12:04p Cupcake for an office birthday.

12:41p Emerges from the playpen gnawing on a piece of jerky. Curious.

1:39p Stealthily walks to fridge and grabs a yogurt. I peer over to see her vigorously scraping the frail aluminum lid which sheltered this creamy substance right up until its final hour. Don't miss a morsel!

1:42p I begin to wonder, what did Agnus have for lunch????

3:03p "I'm gonna go to the bathroom, and then nab a cupcake on my way back."

3:30p Agnus has left the building.
