Ham and Beaned

Sunday, October 28, 2012

Another good day except for excessive eating.  Still looking for focus.

Breakfast:  2 eggs fried in a bit of butter, 1 small organic russet potato fried in a bit of lard, 1 small organic avocado.  Coffee.

Looking at this objectively, it wasn't my finest effort.  The eggs were past over medium, the potatoes could have used another minute.  But ... I mixed it all up and it was entirely delicious.

Lunch:  Ham and beans, a little bit of sauteed carrot, celery and onion.

A new dish, something I haven't had before.  I got a lovely big smoked ham slice from a different local farm and cooked that up.  I soaked some great northern beans and cooked them up with a little onion and some spices.  Brought everything together and the result was fantastic.  I have one leftover meal (plus some extra ham), hope it's as good!  I didn't eat all that much of the carrot/celery mix, poor cooking job on that.

Snack:  Hot dog with bun and mustard, 1 package peanut butter crackers

Dinner:  Spaghetti with ground beef, salad with ranch, garlic toast.  Not my choice.

Snack:  Chips and onion dip, 1 fizzy greyhound drink.

Exercise:  18 holes with cart, some extra walking.  Pedometer said 4.5 miles.

Worth noting that I was super energetic - I did have a hard time getting up this morning but did a bunch of cooking and stuff around the house.  Had the ham and beans before going out and felt GREAT.
