First off, just want to clarify that I thoroughly enjoyed 90210 and Melrose Place last night. I watch a lot of mindless TV, so I wasn’t knocking it by any means . I was a little confused by Melrose though, just because I didn’t watch the old show.

Today was a day like any other. Perhaps slightly more stressful than the average day, but I believe the stress was self-induced. Most of it was trying to decide between going to a super cool foodie event tonight and getting nothing done for the evening or having dinner with my roommate and her Mom and getting lots of things accomplished. Still haven’t made the decision though.

Lunch today was made last night. I had lots of tomatoes that were about to go bad, and I saw that Heather had made a homemade pasta sauce so I attempted to do the same. I didn’t really follow her instructions though because I was rushed, so the result was less of a sauce than it was cooked cheesey tomatoes, but it was tasty nonetheless.

I combined it with some whole wheat pasta and served that with a side of steamed broccoli, which I’d been craving since my very un-green dinner last night.

I randomly decided to throw on a scoop of cottage cheese for some added protein, since carby lunches tend to spike my appetite.

I’ve always enjoyed cottage cheese with pasta, but I was surprised at how much I liked it with the broccoli. This was a VERY satisfying lunch.

Which is good, because the rest of my lunch was unsatisfying to say the least. I was running around the apartment like a chicken with my head cut off trying to get a million things done, which resulted in my delicious yogurt mess falling to the floor and spilling everywhere

I didn’t have time to pack a new snack, so I’m thinking I’ll be partaking in some White Chocolate Wonderful pb straight from the jar this afternoon! Any excuse to do that is okay with me, haha.

Sometimes I wonder if it is worth going home for lunch everyday because I am always so rushed. But if I didn’t go home I couldn’t blog! I think I’m just going to try to streamline the lunch process a little bit from now on. I might just have to limit it to eating only.

In other news, Lynn from The Actor’s Diet has a new movie coming out! If you live close to any of these theaters you should totally check it out. Here is a letter from Lynn herself. Spread the news!

Hello Everyone!

Starting this weekend my movie “White on Rice” opens in limited release – it’s a comedy I acted in over two summers ago, had an amazing time making, and I couldn’t be happier with the finished product. The official site with trailer and complete info is at: www.whiteonricethemovie.com.

Getting an indie film into movie theaters these days is no easy feat and our success depends largely on our friends, families, and community being involved during opening weekend. If you or people you know live in one of the areas where “White on Rice” will play (see below), please support us by purchasing a ticket and encouraging others to as well!

If you’ve already seen the movie at a film fest or sneak preview (thank you!) I’d appreciate it if you would actively spread the word – every ticket helps our chances of expanding across the country. We don’t have a big budget for marketing so we rely heavily on word-of-mouth – chat us up at parties, email your friends, twitter, facebook, message boards, etc….

Here are the theaters we’re starting out in – for each one, we are booked for about one week, and will hopefully extend our stay if we do well at the box office.
