Because Emma-Grace was a planned C-Section, I couldn't eat 12 hours before the surgery... and then after the surgery I couldn't eat any solid foods until certian things (that will remain unstated) happened. So, I went 41 hours without solid foods. Needless to say, Jello and chicken broth will only sustain you for so long so I was STARVING when I was finally able to eat solid food... Sadly, Jello and chicken broth were so much better than the hospital food... because it was so bad, I decided to tell the story of my meals...
The story starts with what is a tiny little packet called Mrs. Dash Salt Free Seasoning. The hospital apparently owns stock in this tiny little delight. This is served with EVERY meal.

It was served with my cheese omlette and bananna bread breakfast on day one of solid foods. Doesn't it look good?
It was also served with day one lunch, pictured here are grilled veggies served cold (on purpose). Yummy!
Here it is served with the taboleh, seseme chicken and cheesy potatoes... this is all I was able to eat of the meal. Fortunately, Ken and Anna got hamburgers from the cafeteria and I ate Anna's left overs.
Also served wtih this meal was humus and pita, which was very good, but the porportion of humus to pita bread was way off... I was quite sad that I only got two triangles of pita.
The last day I was there, breakfast was quite good, however, very small... I just couldn't figure out what to put the Mrs. Dash Salt Free Seasoning on... My frenchtoast, sausage and bacon?

Or maybe the canned fruit cocktail?

Or maybe the bran muffin?
Oh, I know, I can split it between my strawberry yogurt and Cheerios.
Needless to say, I apparently started my diet while at the hospital!
