I Get So Excited Over the Little Things
My wife went to Target today and, at my request, looked for and purchased a small item for me.
Today my much was packed in this:
Tomorrow my lunch will be packed in this:

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year?
The weather has turned absolutely beautiful up here in New England. And we deserve it, after the long winter we had that felt like it went on for three years…
But when the weather turns nice, the air smells clean, a can walk across my new carpet with my bare feet and not feel like I’m walking on a polar ice cap…well, then it becomes one of my favorite times of the year.
Know why?
Huh? Do you? Do you, huh?
This is why!!
BTW, check out my new toy. In an effort to get away from lighter fluid, I went to Target and got myself a chimney starter. Good god, does this thing work fantastic!
Today’s Menu – 4/22/08
So, in effort to keep myself honest in preparation for my race, here is what I consumed:
- 1 8oz glass of OJ (w/ one multivitamin)
- Coffee with sweetener (about half of my coffee today was caf, the other half decaf)
- 1 slice of banana bread
- 1 banana
- 1 salad of baby spinach leaves with some fat grape tomatoes, half a plain grilled chicken breast (about 5 oz), and some bleu cheese dressing
- 1 apple
- 1 small mixture of Planter’s Heart Healthy nuts and some raisin.
- 2 diet cokes (1 caf-free, 1 not)
- 1 mug of tea with 3 spoonfuls of sugar and a little bit of half n half
- several glasses of water
…and then there was dinner…
- 4 pieces of chicken (2 thighs, 2 drumsticks)
- 2 (small) helpings of garlic mashed potatoes
- 2 slices of coffee cake
- 1 slice of banana bread
I swear, the moment the breads are out of the house, I’m not making any more, cause they are killing me. At least the chicken is protein. The cakes are just flour, sugar, butter, more butter, even more butter…
