Today kick's off Lollapalooza here in Chicago. It’s a massive 3 day music festival featuring some really awesome acts like Radiohead, Wilco, G Love and Kanye. Rumor has it that Senator Obama is scheduled to introduce Wilco on Saturday night!!
Like most festival goers, I’ve been sorting through the lineup and planning out what stages I’m going to visit at what times. But unlike most festival goers, I'm actually nervous about what I'm going to eat. Sounds funny, I know. You see, festival food is notoriously bad for you and the last thing I want is for a low or high blood sugar to ruin my festival experience. Knowing how serious I am about staying on the healthy track, and how crabby I get when I feel sick, my wonderful husband emailed me the Lollapalooza menu earlier in the week. What a guy!
Now, my culinary expectations aren't too high. I’m just looking for something fairly low-carb, fairly low-fat and something that won’t leave me with stomach pains. And it looks to me like i'll have some options. There's grilled chicken, portabello wraps (assuming not too oily), veggie chilli (assuming it's not too hot out), chicken sauage, watermelon...I won't go hungry after all. And my husband won't have to listen to me complain. It's a win-win.
Gotta run, Matt is calling me live from Grant Park...Jeff Tweedy is playing an acoustic version of Heavy Metal Drummer on the kiddy stage!
