What's on your Wednesday Menu, RNYers?
on 7/24/19 2:48 am
Happy Hump Day! What's the plan today, everyone? Not much going on for me today. If it is nice out, I am going to take myself for a very long nature walk after the gym. Other than that... just some life organization, I guess.
Accountability: Great. Food was perfect and I ran 3.5 miles in the morning, then biked another 5. Weight didn't budge, though.
QOTD: Have you loved a show but were super disappointed in the finale? The weather was terrible here yesterday (crazy rain & tornadoes nearby), so after my morning at the gym, I finished binging all of the new Veronica Mars season. GAH, I was so MAD! Why?? WHY???
Exercise: 1.5 mile run and weight circuit

Good morning folks. Looks like it'll be a pleasant day here, sunny and warm but lower humidity. I'd like to get out for a bit at lunch if I can.
I workout with my trainer this evening so I'll get in a hard weight workout in the gym but I'm trying to be sure that I get both weights and cardio for complete fitness.

Good morning JB and menu folks. You know what day it is?? LOL...I had a Vendor visit from China Yesterday, poor guy had to drive 6 hours from NYC as his flight was cancelled the night prior, took him to lunch, He had a 16 oz Ribeye and I had a grilled chicken salad. He asked why the salad? LOL.
QOTD - The sopranos left too many unanswered questions in my eyes. Now I guess we know the ending as James Gandolfini has passed away....I miss that show.
Accountability - spot on.
B - Egg salad
S - ham roll up
L - salami and cheese
S - cukes from my garden and dip

Have you seen Gandolfini and Tom Hardy in The Drop? One of my favorite movies; I'm a huge fan of Dennis Lehane's books and they have translated well to the screen. I'd love to see more in the Kenzie/Gennaro series become books, I never understand why they pick a book in the middle of a series to start a movie franchise with.

I haven't read much Lehane, just The Given Day and Gone Baby Gone. Loved both, but for some reason haven't delved into all of his others. I got to hear him speak at the Boston Book festival a few years ago, though. Very cool and interesting guy.
