Home beats Restaurant

Next time we'll have lunch at my house. My bread (homemade sesame) is better, my clam chowder is better, my salad is better. When it's raining, the view is about the same.

Hello again

Some parts of life continued on through the summer... sleeping, some exercise, and yes, eating. A fair amount of traveling kept me away from blogging, but not away from food and exercise! I learned that stairs are a great way to exercise. I learned that yes, it does take 5-6 miles per day to accomplish my fitness goals if I'm not doing anything more strenuous than walking. I learned that a sprained ankle can really set back the fitness goals. And, I learned that 2 months off my regular stretching exercises makes it very hard to get back into the routine!

I sampled Slovak food, even learned how to make a salad. Will learn more this weekend at a Slovak party here in the states. I sampled German food. :-) Tonight, we will have good homecooked food. We'll try to keep it healthy.
