Feb 28 - I love eggs

If there's one thing that I like best about this diet, it's eggs.  I have eggs for breakfast.  I had eggs for brunch.  I could have eggs for dinner, if I wanted to.  I take hard-boiled eggs on my bike rides.  Second best is bacon, sausage ... you get the idea.  Breakfast all day long !

Yesterday we did just that.  Breakfast at 6am, as usual, for me, then brunch at 11 -- well, we ate more like 11:30 which is my normal lunch time anyway, and then we had a couple of snacks at Jim & Joanne's house party and then, well we didn't have dinner.  I had some popcorn, which Cassie is now developing a taste for, and some of my usual pepper and spread snacks.  Yesterday that was tapenade, which I'd made earlier in the day; it has a good snap to it with 8 chili peppers blended in. 

Brunch was at the SYC, of course, with Sheryl, Melanie, Jim and Brian.  Being a beautiful day, we then hung around our dock for a while and then the "boys" took Cassie over to the mud-bar at the south causeway to chase the ball.  Jim and Brian didn't have shorts, so they stayed in the boat.  Cassie got in some running and swimming.

Later on, while Sandy was watching the Oscar Red Carpet, at dusk, I took Cassie for a walk.  That was interesting -- more things to spook her at twilight.  There were no squirrels at that time of day but she did wonder about that cat that crossed in front of us !  It may be the first time that she's seen a cat.

I'm still hitting the gym most days, even Sunday.  It's hard to believe that there are other people there at 4:30 on a Sunday a.m. but there are ... I think that I saw three other idiots. I like to get there before 5am as shortly afterwards the place starts getting crowded and I have to share machines.

Today I plan to ride.  SSW wind says the forecast.  Great !  The real action starts tomorrow ...

Onward !
