Psoriasis journey: days 16&17

Had a good birthday today, until I came home from dropping of dinner to a friend and found vomit all over the couch, the floor, and cushions. And then there was more, and it continued on for the rest of the evening. I am so thankful for my dog though, as he loves to lick up vomit. Of course there was still a bit of cleanup with my handy bottle of vinegar and a towel, but way better than cleaning up chunks.

Had a great birthday dinner last night. My amazingly wonderful hubby arranged for a sitter and took me out to a fancy restaurant. We had a fabulous gourmet meal. Seared scallops, duck breast, and a lovely glass of wine, just to give a hint. It's been such a fabulous birthday week: first a new camera, bowling with my kiddos, ice cream maker in the mail, date day with the hubby, and then dinner last night. It's been a wonderful, incredible week.

And to top it all off, I have definitely seen improvement in the patches. Although, I have been slacking on the plan these last few days. But, I haven't eaten any night shades! Maybe a tad to few many sweets and not enough veggies, but no night shades.

With that being said, here's the meal plans from the last two days:

Breakfast - spelt pancakes with butter, maple syrup, and ice cream(loving the new ice cream maker)!
Lunch - lamb burger on whole wheat bun with white cheddar cheese, blue corn tortilla chips, vanilla bean ice cream with a tad bit of banana pudding(we had a bbq with some friends today).
Dinner - leftover steak and a bit more ice cream(I've got to make sure all the ice cream gets eaten before it goes bad ;-)
Evening beverage - orange flavored kombucha.

Breakfast - over easy eggs and sausage.
Lunch - grilled chicken salad with feta, walnuts, apples, red onions and an apple vinaigrette dressing.
Dinner - seared scallops with garlic sauce and sea veggies, stout and molasses muffin bread,  pan fried duck breast, butternut squash purée, broccoli, honey roasted carrots, and sweet potato fries, with a glass of Riesling.
Dessert - homemade chocolate tart with pecan nut crust.

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6
