    Culinary delights will be consumed. Delicate yet robust red wines will be quaffed. Smile

    We can let the circumstances of our lives harden us so that we become increasingly resentful and afraid, or we can let them soften us, and make us kinder.
    We always have the choice.

      **Dave whips up a nice batch of homemade Chili Verde from his garden tomatillos. plates it with a nice side of Arroz a la Mexicana and Frijoles Refritos and hands it to Kay**

       

      Flour or corn tortillas? Smile

       

      Either one, I don't care.  You had me at homemade Chili Verde.

      Do you even run?

        Okay, since the Mexican food thing came up...I made some BOMB ass fajitas a little while ago.  That's my go to food at any Mexican restaurant.  They go great with Dos Equis Ambar with a lime.

        Shake off the dust....Arise.

            I went with homemade Chinese tonight.  Beef & broccoli here.  So good!

             

            Do you even run?

               

              I met a friend for lunch today and went all out and ordered a Horseshoe Sandwich, a local favorite here in Springfield Illinois..........starts with a piece of toasted Texas toast, a hamburger patty topped with French fries and covered with a perfect white cheese sauce.

               

              I haven't had one of these since I went on a diet in May last year. Felt a little guilty about eating it, so i guess I'll run a bit further tomorrow.

                    Why do we do that?  I had a hot chocolate from Tim Hortons yesterday (try it one day it's really good) and only drank 8 ounces, then poured the other 4 ounces out!  That after running for a flippin hour!

                        It was easy........the fries get a bit soggy with all that cheese after a while. a few months ago i would have cleared the plate and not think twice about it.
