Happy Thanksgiving

, , , , , / 1 minute of reading /

I am not quite sure why it is that people presume the first Thanksgiving Day feast consisted of turkey and all the trimmings. The original account only suggests that hunters went out looking for fowl. It does not mention if they were successful or not, or what kind of fowl they were hunting. I guess it just makes for a nice story. Personally, I figure that since they were close to the ocean, there is more likelihood of seafood being on the table than a turkey, but no one knows for sure. I decided that my Thanksgiving meal would consist …

Another Take Charge Morning

, , , , , / 1 minute of reading /

One of my personality traits has to be commitment. Perhaps not in relationships, but when it comes to things like watching my diet, exercise, juicing and Project 365, I am pretty reliable. An example of this might be my use of Take Charge. I have never been a breakfast person. Even in high school my mom went out of her way to include instant breakfast in the food budget just so I had something before heading off to school. My photo of the day for day 326 is of my Take Charge breakfast mixed with Greek yogurt. I have only …

Healthy Dinner

, , , , , , , / 1 minute of reading /

Tanya went back home to Indiana, which means it is time for me to get back on my healthy diet. Since we were on the road most of last week it was difficult for me to continue my juicing. We both use Take Charge in the morning, so it was just a matter of picking up some yogurt at the local 7-11 and we were set for the beginning of the day. It was just a matter of finding something good for you for dinner. My photo of the day for Thursday is a before shot of my dinner. I …

Ever Changing

I had not been to Gu Gu Sushi in a couple of weeks for some unexplainable reason, so Catherine (my long time friend and assistant) went out last night to celebrate her birthday. Luckily, we both enjoy Gu Gu’s sushi. My picture of the day for Friday is the latest version of the gotbaddog.com roll. The original version was quite timely to prepare, so Song has been modifying it as he goes along. This is actually a great dish for someone that is just getting into sushi and is not comfortable with the whole raw fish thing.

Take Charge and Wii Did It

, , , , , , / 1 minute of reading /

My loyal readers probably recall a post or two in which I mentioned that I had started using the Wii Fit. According to Wii I should weigh 167 pounds. Now, we all know that is never going to happen, and in fact, it would not even allow me to set that as a goal as it seems to have a 25 pound limit. So, I set my goal for losing 25 pounds in a year. Extensive travel makes weight control very difficult, at least for me. It is difficult to get good food on the road. Those last five pounds …

Sprouts Farmers Market

, , , , / 1 minute of reading /

Anyone that really knows me knows that shopping is not really my thing. For me to have a favorite store or a store I am somewhat excited about is rare indeed. Last week I discovered Sprouts Farmers Market. I was actually looking for one of those outdoor farmers market setups when I found Sprouts in Google. I read a couple reviews and decided I had to check it out for myself. Since I am getting into juicing it seemed like the natural thing to do. Am I ever glad I did. In the past, I have found that shopping for …

Photos from Dublin’s All Ireland Football Finals

All Ireland Football Finals Photos From Dublin Sunday was the GAA’s All Ireland Football finals at Croke Park, featuring Cork vs Down. About 83,000 people attended, and it made for a definite party atmosphere in the Dublin area. Since we did not have tickets to the game, we started the day off by visiting Trinity College and checking out the Book of Kells. Although no photos were allowed in the library it was very cool and if you ever make it to Dublin, it is worth the visit. After the game started, we walked over to Croke Park and got …

Never Settle

, , , , , / 1 minute of reading /

I am not really sure why I bought this thing. It is not the kind of barbecue I like to use, at all. Maybe if I was barbecuing for large crowds, this unit would be appropriate, but for one or two people, it just does not make sense. It is too big to cook one or two steaks with. I guess I picked this one because I wanted a barbecue immediately and the establishment I was at did not sell the Weber Kettle, which would have been my first choice. So, I settled. My photo of the day for day …

Project 365 August Recap

A Picture a Day – Project 365 August 2010 August 2010 was a pretty fun month. I guess any month that more than half of it includes riding one of my bikes is a good month. Throw in a few days with my honey in Sturgis, a couple visits to Gu Gu Sushi and some quality time with Buddy and there really is not a lot to complain about. This gallery is a compilation of my picture a day project for August 2010.

Rib Eye Time

, , , , , , , / 1 minute of reading /

I am a pretty good cook. I am very good when it comes to grilling on the barbecue. Unfortunately, I do not really enjoy cooking for myself, so I do not do it very often. I am a member of Sort This Out Cellars wine club, and every three months they send me a few bottles of wine. Since it was Friday, and I had received a supply of some new wines, I decided to go to the store and pick up a rib eye and fixings for a salad. I picked a rib eye because I wanted to get …
