where she went and what she ate

[lagilman]

Started Sunday healthily with a 2 mile walk (humidity, ugh) and a bagel with chevre fresca. Mid-day: fresh vegetables and a plate of duck pancetta. Mmmm. Dinner, G and I went to Via Spuntino SoHo* for a seafood tasting with prosecco, finished by pastries and port in Little Italy.

Monday: A bike ride. A loooong bike ride (20 miles, for those counting) along the Hudson River Greenway. Lunch midway was yummy, crunchy chicken fingers. Followed by an evening out in NJ eating pulled pork and brownies, and drinking hard cider and Scotch (not together, no).

This morning, I woke up swearing I'd eat nothing but whole wheat pasta, unsweetened iced tea, and raw veggies the rest of the week.

Okay, maybe just for today.





*the service is still weak but the food is excellent. If you're in NYC - GO. (but be warned, the space seats 26, max)

But you went out in a blaze of glory!

Were you really feeling it by the time the ride was over? Just curious as to whether that seat really did the trick.

My butt and back were fine. My knees were bitching me out. So the bike wins high marks and my knees need replacing (but I knew that already)

That makes two of us. My knees have been complaining ever since college, an aftereffect of the time I spent running hurdles in high school. (Yeah, you'd never guess that I ran track by looking at me now.)
