What's on your Wednesday Menu?

QOTD: That was so long ago I don't remember. I did not like college at all. My mother remembered my first day at school, I was 5 and in those days there was no kindergarten.....

Mom asks how did you like school. Me: It's okay but I am not going back.
Mom: what do you mean you are not going back? Me: I already know everything I need to.

Of course I don't remember that ... but it rings true. I felt like that after my first year in college ... I wasn't learning anything new. I ended up dropping out 2nd year and I regretted that.

My first real job was at 15 in an engineering office as an assistant to the secretary. I was an awful typist then, but a civil engineer decided to make me her assistant and found that I was an excellent draftsman and could do any calculations given to me. That put me in a career path I never got out of, I would quit and then someone would hunt me down and offer me a job and being lazy I would take it ... eventually opening a consulting firm with 2 other colleagues when I was 30. I liked what I was doing until I didn't. I really did like being my own boss ...

Menu: Turkey. Turkey. Turkey. Our Christmas plans got re-arranged so I am cooking that bird today. After the white meat is gone, the carcass is going to be soup. That I will freeze.

Good morning ~ Food porn, totally! Hope you can catch your breath today, JB! I'm feeling really good about some breakthroughs and progress I am making in my personal therapy. It's having a positive effect on my health - choices and goals vs self sabotage. It's unbelievable the things we carry from childhood that make us who we are today. Layer after layer...

Out of my staff of 9, 6 are out with covid or waiting for test results. I am double masking, washing my hands like a crazy person and staying away from everyone! I need to go to the front office and get the N95 masks we have available.

QOTD - Neither - both were great days for me. If I could redo a few crazy first dates I'd been on, then I'd have some stories for you! I could write a book.

Accountability - I got this!

B- coffee, eggbeater casserole with red peppers, mushrooms and jack cheese on top

l - turkey cheese pickle lettuce wraps w/light mayo

d- carnitas, cheddar cheese and hot sauce

s -string cheese

766/74

vi**** - great

exercise - hikes in Maui - the lavender garden. It was only 17 minutes, but I stayed on and did a full 30 minutes.

217.7

Have a great day!

Congratulations on your break through. So glad your moving forward. Your Menu and exercise look great. Hope this inspires me to get back at it.

Ugh - dating. I'm hoping Greg outlives me so I don't have to deal with the dating scene again (of course, I don't HAVE to...). It's so awkward. No thanks.

Worked out okay for me thank goodness!

LOL - yes - I thought of you when I wrote that!! You really hit the jackpot!!

I'm so happy you're doing so well. Great work!!

QOTD- Neither one, but that doesn't mean I don't have regrets. I worked full time all the way through college so no real college experience.

I just made pumpkin custard. My condo smelled like a pumpkin pie. They taste like one too but without the crust. Lots of protein and feels like I'm eating something decadent.

My Mom sent me a check for my birthday, so it paid for about a quarter of my serger which makes me happy.

Have a great day everyone!

How do you make your pumpkin custard? Sounds good.

I want to know too! I love pumpkin
