Day 54 Brunch

Here is a slightly crooked picture of brunch today. I made scrambled eggs with mushrooms, and leftover steak with a mandarin orange. I also had coffee with cream. i am counting this meal as 25 grams of oxalate because of the orange, coffee and mushrooms. I'm sure the count is less than that, but I have no exact amount per item, so I have to estimate. I wish there was a book I could buy that listed exactly how many oxalates there are in each food. In the Low Oxalate Cookbook, there are charts, but since they take their information from more than one source it is confusing when you attempt to negotiate actual foods you are putting in your mouth. So, I estimate, and will continue to do so.
