Don't Call Me Sweet Pea
I ran out of time this morning to eat, so I had to grab breakfast at Subway. Egg white and provolone English muffin. I'm proud to say I got the usual lettuce and tomato and this time added spinach!
The back story: Once upon a time I hated tomatoes. The only form I'd partake in would be ketchup, pizza sauce, etc. but I'd run away at the threat of a fresh slice of tomato. It took years, but I finally introduced tiny diced up pieces mixed very sparingly into my food (casseroles and such). Because I know it is good for me, I've managed to work my way up to getting lettuce and tomato on all my sandwiches. Since they always talk about eating "leafy greens", I thought fresh spinach didn't look too intimidating. Sadly, I actually had to ask what it was as I'd never seen spinach that wasn't served on a school lunch tray looking like a pathetic jumble of seaweed. I mean, I thought that's what it was, but I had to ask to be certain (how pathetic!).
Overall, I suppose it won't kill me.
