Hi,
None of my close buds are movie people ... and some movies I somtimes I just want to see on the big screen. In the past I would dash out of the office to hit an early show and have popcorn for dinner. So tonight I had a protein shake before leaving office and took an Atkins Day Break bar to have at the theatre. No popcorn :exclamation: And there I sat appreciating the irony of the movie that I was about to watch about Julia Child/French cuisine contrasted with the fine dining that I was partaking. Sometimes it's just about the carb count.
Daily totals
Protein 85.5g
ECC 28g

Good health,
Sharvo
PS - Afterwards I went directly to the nearest book store to look at the book Mastering the Art of French Cooking, but it was too carby to invest CAD$60 (on hold at the library instead) :o

All the pages are falling out of our 30 year old copy, but it still gets regular use. I keep thinking I must see if I can find a hardback version one day.

They've released a new edition with the movie so if you can get past Meryl Streep on the cover instead of Julia, now might be a good time to find one ... unless one of the past editions is better content for some reason ?

Good Health,
Sharvo
