On the Run - 12/8/8

2.27 mi / 39:43 min / 17:26 mpm

There's my camera phone - right where I left it when I went out this morning.

We charge our phones on top of the Sparkletts bottle in the corner of the kitchen.

The painting to the right was done by my dear wife from a photo of the dawg and I at the beach when he was just a wee one himself.

And yes, we have our weekly meals planned out on a chalk board. We kept doing the grocery shopping only to forget what meals we had shopped for a couple of days later.

And no, we don't eat those specific meals on those specific days - it's just to make sure the week is covered (we always leave one or two days open for left-overs, unexpected meals out or the occasional pizza). No foraging for food or wondering in dismay "What do we have?". We just look at the board in the morning, decide what we feel like having for dinner and pull it out of the freezer if necessary.

And yes, we had crock-pot chicken last night and it was fantabulous. Made even more so by a dear friend who dropped by with a dawg of her own for dinner.

The rest of the week's meals? Anchovy Pasta with toasted pecans (don't knock it till you try it), Tuna Melts, Quiche, Pork Chops with Blue Cheese Gravy (recipe in earlier post), and Crock-Pot BEEF STEW as part of my ongoing effort to make at least one crock pot meal a week - the whole house smells FANTASTIC all day long!


So there it is.

Oh, and the run was great this morning too! 7 days straight so far! Where's my commemorative poker chip??
