Poached

Sunday, October 7, 2012

I just typed August.  I guess I'm not ready for it to be fall.  Either that or I'm a good two months behind at everything which is also a distinct possibility.

Breakfast:  2 eggs, poached, 4 CF bacon patties, coffee.

I should just change the name of the blog to "Egg Pictures and Stuff"
I'm pretty sure that this was the first time I've ever tried to poach eggs.  I would describe the results as moderate success - they tasted just fine, but I lost some of the white.  I probably won't be poaching regularly unless I am eating toast.

Lunch:  Leftover deluxe hamburger gravy (reheated with a splash of milk), 1 medium organic russet potato, boiled, 1 organic avacado

It's still not pretty, but was tasty:

Eggs no, washed-out lighting YES!
I've been rendering some leaf lard I got at the farm so the stove top was pretty well covered for once!

Snack:  1 package peanut butter crackers, chips and onion dip (way too much of this)

Dinner:  Chicken enchilada, spanish rice

This is pretty much everything I wouldn't do for myself - it used light sour cream, canned cream soup, dunno about the cheese, processed bagged rice mix cooked with "smart balance" vegetable oil.    I did not eat to excess and skipped dessert.

Exercise:  18 holes, 9 walking and 9 riding.  I took the pedometer along and it said that I did 3.5 miles walking the front and 1.75 miles on the back when I rode.  Total of a little more than 5.25 miles.  Seems like that should be fairly accurate, the course itself is 4 miles without the distances between greens and tees etc.
