Woo, Tep!
My first 5K was also a hilly muddy mess, but I at least knew that was likely when I signed up. And it was awesome and badass. So I am sure you are more awesome and badass because (a) surprise and (b) capes!
My plan for today was to watch recorded TV and Netflix in between lackadaisically cleaning. So far I have only managed the TV part.
Timelies all!
Woo, Steph!
I thought I had the Anne series, but I don't.
Steph, my walk home is a little under 5k, paved and downhill and it regularly takes me 50-55 mins. That's a really good time for muddy and hilly.
I had some strawberries that I let sit too long, so rather than throwing them out, I'm macerating them in rum, vanilla, sugar, and a dash of cayenne.
Yay 5K and capes!
I got up and did yoga, and met some new folks and had brunch with them. Now I am sore and tired, but it's SUCH a pretty day out...I feel I should enjoy it.
Go, Teppy!
The diabetic counselor said I could have a little bit of Quick (1 tsp instead of the 2 tbs serving size) in my milk for an afternoon snack. It is not a milkshake, but it may keep me from losing my mind in the next 4 months.
Whir it in the blender, sj, it will froth it up and make it fancy. Dust it with a little instant coffee powder--decaf if you're off caffeine--instant mocha almost-milkshake! You might want to try nonfat dry milk, Quik powder or an unsweetened cocoa powder--we use Dagoba. Do check, though, that cocoa is allowed, for the caffeine, etc. Blend the powders with a little ice water and a few ice cubes, dust with powdered cinnamon or coffee, and it comes out frothy and delicious and like a sinful treat.
Oops, I didn't mean to post in Natter, not that it matters.

I did use the Quik powder, and it tasted good even with using such a small amount. My ability to taste sweetness seems to be heightened since I am eating so few sweet things. A blender just feels like too much work and clean up at the moment. I am incredibly lazy and tired lately.
Remember how I said I was looking forward to seeing the people? That was obviously a huge mistake. People everywhere!
I thought I was doing 'eh' for fares this week, but I should get paid at least $600 this week. So that's a bit of a relief.
