Where's the Beach?

Plan B - Rest Day Well, let me just say this, those hill repeats seriously kicked my ass (and quads). Yowzers. My legs feel like lead today. I feel like I did nothing but a million squats yesterday. All good though. It just meant that today was my rest day rather than tomorrow. I can bend a little, especially when there was no way I was doing anything that involved working my legs ;-) Oddly enough, however, I woke up wide-eyed (not exactly bushy-tailed) at 5:26, which is when I have been getting up to go run. Apparently my brain missed the "rest day" memo. Do you ever have those days when you know it is going to be a mandatory rest day, but part of your body or mind is still thinking you should be working out? Maybe it's just because it's habit. I have to say, when I don't post a workout, I feel like my posts are insanely short. But, short isn't always a bad thing right? Better than unnecessary rambling (which I'm beginning to do). Plan B - Quorn Pi...

Saturday Night Off Last night I took the night off from cooking. I let Jason do the work while I sat back with a glass of wine. He made a healthier take on chicken piccata using a Quorn cutlet for a Quorn Picatta with roasted potatoes and roasted asparagus with lemon. The sauce was made by sauteing minced red onions, garlic, capers, and white wine. Just at the end you stir in butter. However, I took my sauce portion for the pictures before the butter was added, hence the chunkier sauce in the picture of my plate. If you like capers, then this is the sauce for you! We ended watching House Bunny after dinner with a bowl of popcorn dressed up with raisins, cranberries and peanut butter chips. Thankfully the movies wasn't as bad as it could have been. It was a silly movie, but sometimes that's just what you want. Lazy Sunday The temps today are only in the mid-60's. A drastic change over last weekend's 80 degree temps. I was so hoping to be done with longer sleeves....
