I love salmon cream cheese. Now, most people I express that sentiment to seem to think the concept is quite disgusting, but I must disagree. It is DELICIOUS, and I am somewhat embarrassed to say that I could eat it with a spoon. But today I didn't do that and I spread it on one of the approximately two bagels I ate during the day. Yes, I ate two bagels, and I know that is quite a lot.
Michel (of the Gilmore Girls) would be appalled by my desire for the delicious squishy circles. As he once said, "I don't eat bagels. Bagels are like glue in your intestines and ensure that everything that enters your body will remain there until you die." What a horrifying thought.
I've never been a morning person, or a breakfast person as a result, so it always seems like kind of miracle when I actually eat something more substantial than a chocolate SlimFast. Now granted, when going out to breakfast my choices usually come down to either the eggs benedict or chicken fried steak. So, should I go with no breakfast or one of my meals of doom?
If I were smart (and the results of that poll are still being tallied), I would go with the miracle food that is oatmeal. Yeah, you can make a face mask out of it and probably plaster together a broken bumper when you don't have any classy duct tape, but does it really hold a candle to a fried mystery meat (that is NOT chicken) soaked in gravy. I think not, my friends.

i've been a lurker for a while and find both of you amusing and inspiring. it's nice to know that others are going through the same struggles! i wanted to tell you that if you like salmon cream cheese, there is a similar "dip"/spread that my mom makes for crackers which is awesome. just cut up some smoked salmon and blend it with some greek yogurt (we use nonfat) and dill if you like. it is basically a lighter version of the cream cheese and really tasty.
So I'm really excited about this greek yogurt/salmon idea... thanks!
Also, someday I will make you gloriously delicious oatmeal, Shawna. Seriously. It's awesome. I put all kinds of lovely things in it and could eat it every day for the rest of my life and be okay with that.
1) I LOVE salmon cream cheese (and salmon pate)!
2) That is a horrifying thought about bagels being glue.
3) Your breakfasts of doom are the same as my breakfast of doom (whenever I eat breakfast, which is almost never, for the same reasons you delineated)
4) I ABHOR oatmeal.
You rock Shawna!
PS: I just recently learned that chicken fried steak is a cube steak (thin, tough steak) that is battered in a bread mix. (I don't know where the "chicken fried" part comes in.) Oh the wonders of buying 1/4 cow and ending up with meats you don't know what to do with.
HAHAHAHAHHHA! you're like the first person who has a "fit blog" that isn't OBSESSED with oatmeal! And that, my friend, is why I read this (and also why I LOVE you guys!)
