Thanksgiving Day
Giving thanks today for a little progress, another trip around the sun, continued health of family and friends, thinking of those we have lost.
It was a very pleasant morning out there, mid 40s and no wind is so nice for this time of year. Quiet, too, with almost nobody out. It did mean that I didn't get to smell bacon frying when I went past the breakfast place downtown, but so it goes. Peaceful. I don't quite have the same love for the morning walk that I found all those years ago but it has become more routine and it can be enjoyable.
Lots of eating to do, lots of cooking too. Pleased that I wasn't up after yesterday -- It didn't feel like I ate to excess, more the fact that I had a fast food burger plus dairy and ate late. Didn't even trigger lots of snoring.
Breakfast: Sausage strata, 1/2 grapefruit, coffee
Best one I have ever made. SO good. Wow.
Lunch: Taco bowl, 12 oz All Day IPA
Oh, and I ate a caramel while making the pecan pie. Decided not to wait until dinner since it's going to be at you know dinnertime.
Dinner: Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, peas, cranberry, jello salad, rolls with butter, 24 oz All Day IPA, a glass of pinot grigio, caramel pecan pie with vanilla ice cream
All turned out fantastic. 10/10. Stuffed. Probably 10,000 calories, zero regrets. And I have leftovers.
Exercise: Walk, 1.8 miles, 40 minutes. A hair faster but my pace is my pace. No struggles today, just a steady march. It does help, I think, to have a regular route and a podcast to listen to.
