Wednesday: Shop by Color
I can TOTALLY be bribed. I can even bribe myself. I told myself all day yesterday (and on Twitter and on Facebook) that I could have cupcakes IF I ran the 6 miles this morning. DONE! And it was a good 6 miles. I KILLED the hill that is Central. Which is more than 1/2 mile long. I finished with my fastest mile. And really did feel satisfied with the effort and the results. WHAT the hell is going on this week? 2 good runs so far.
Run: 6miles / 67:50
Breakfast was…..you guessed it. A cupcake. They are just plain, Dunkin Hines Devils Food cupcakes. No frosting. PERFECT.
There was an apple and some carrots.
Lunch was yet ANOTHER round of Chicken Tortilla soup. I think that might be about it for the soup. I am on the only one in this house eating the leftovers. And 4 times in one week might be enough.
And then another cupcake. Hey, at 130 calories apiece and a 6 mile run today, I am good to go on the cupcakes. And I had a peach (see below).
Dinner was a boneless pork chop with salad and corn. I dipped the pork chop in the salsa you will read about below.
I ran to Sam’s Club this morning to buy grown-up sized notebooks (see yesterday). I was also looking for eggs, fruit, chicken sausages (for my sister) and half and half. What I ended up finding was notebooks, eggs, salsa, PB M&M, pb chips, dish soap and egg beaters. I did manage to resist the OMG-they-are-so-pretty package of ultra fine Sharpies.
So off to Costco I went for fruit, chicken wings, and half and half. What I got was nectarines, peaches, carrots, corn, half and half and beer. Proof of the orange food obsession. I already have sweet potato fries or I would have bought those as well!
Just a quick book recommendation for anyone that needs a good one: The Art of Fielding by Chad Harbach. It was excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed it. And I don’t at all think it matters if you like baseball or not. The writing is amazing.

Bribery! Hee, Hee. That’s how I convinced my spouse to run. I told him, I’d buy him a brand new pair of running shoes if he’d give running a shot for one month. He did, and he’s still running today. 🙂 However, I like your cupcake thinking 🙂
