I can eat what I want because I'm a grown-up

hello blog world, or future me, because I'm the only one reading this blog.
I've been thinking lately about food. Maybe it started when Rob said I never put hot things in my mouth, like when he asks me to taste his soup. Then I started thinking about how I only eat 5 things (6 now I eat dates).
So today I was thinking...here is my list...
I like cold food,
I like frozen food
I like to eat things I can hold
I like to eat with my fingers
I like to eat with a fork
I dislike eating with a spoon, although I like cereal
I don't like when the spoon or fork touches my lips (that one sounds really weird)
I like most vegetables, but not many fruits,

green actually, I like almost everything green, and am now trying to eat orange for my eyes.
Fruits
banannas
mango
fresh strawberries, and raspberries
dates (are they a fruit?)
LOVE
noodles and pasta
thinner is better
don't like UDON

I like sugar, and salt
and have learned to like pickles and olives, but they are not
a natural flavour for me. I like creamy not juicy ie smoothies, and I like chewy like hemp and oats, not toffee.

Now imagine how a child could possibly explain that. That they like finger foods, even when they are over finger food age, it might just seem like all they want is chicken nuggets but really they just want something they can pick up.

The other thing. I want to eat the same thing almost everyday. I don't need a lot of variety in my diet, and I like plain rather bland food.

so my food log for yesterday:
2 bananna
4 ish dates
edame
couple frozen snack bars
2 choc chip cookies
6" of baguette
bowl of Kraft dinner and pickles

Today
some snack bar
couple coffees
smoothy with the works
so far.

Glad to get these thoughts down
maybe can start using this as a food log
that's all for today

45 plus ???

apparently I am better at running than blogging, because I haven't blogged in five and a half months but I've been running as much as possible. I try to jog the other way now, start at Old Mill and that way I can run a little farther each time, I"ve gone past the park 3 times now, once to the bench, once to the tree, and this last weekend to a farther tree.
This week however I've had a great breakthrough. Yesterday I ran from King George to Bloor, going down Willard, across to Armandale, then up to Annette and across to Jane !!!!!!!!!!!!!!without stopping!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today I ran down Willard to Bloor up Durie and half way up to St Johns on Beresford. (went pretty slow though)
I'm reading a book from the library called Better, Stronger, Faster so I may be changing my routine soon. I play hockey Monday's until the end of June, then I don't know what I"ll be doing. Susan is doing a decathlon! and I told her I would do a 5k with her (no idea why I said that, peer pressure I'm sure), good to have goals right.
oh and there was this other big thing
I quit smoking in February. I"m not sure if that helped my running, or my hockey. I sure got fat so I know that isn't helping. I'm not feeling like I"m so much more winded, not coughing in the morning, and my lungs feel clearer, but I'm not tearing up the ice rink or the run track. But I still know it is best. and am proud of myself.
there updated, once day I can come back and read this and be like oh yeah I remember when I could only run for 15 minutes without stopping!!! (that's how long it took me to run from the old mill to the second tree on Monday. Feel I need to push harder every day, I was a bit sick a couple weeks ago and still feel a little sub par, but still want to push myself, and to do that you have to set the bar, so you can clear it and move up right?
okay now I"m really done
