Running is a big question mark that’s there each and every day. It asks you, ‘Are you going to be a wimp or are you going to be strong today?' - Peter Maher, Irish-Canadian Olympian

Untitled update

I have not run in a week.

Cosmo has not run in over a month - it has been way too hot to get him out. He has been handing out lots of Momo enemas - as in any move we make, his head is right up our asses! :-)

I have no idea if I will be able to do the Willow Bay run in two weeks.

I have not cooked and we have resorted to eating what little vegan fast food we can find.

I find my life completely overwhelming right now but I am going to cook tonight. I am, I am, I am! I am making brown and wild rice with asparagus from Fatfreevegan site. My plan was to make this yesterday for Budge and Spark when they were over helping with the garage sale but that plan bit the dust and a cheese pizza and tomato pie (vegan, thank you very much) was brought home and devoured in record time! I thought this recipe had tofu in it so I bought a little extra today at the co-op but it doesn't. So I am going to make Pan-fried sesame tofu from the Whole Foods site. to go along with it. I hope it turns out ok. The last recipe from them kind of....well.....it bit the big one. Yuck. Zesty Quinoa with broccoli and cashews. It had sundried tomatoes in it and they were completely overwhelming. I couldn't even eat it. First recipe from them I tried that didn't work out. Hopefully it is an anomaly. As a service to my 2 readers, I will report back on the success of this recipe :-)

No garage sale today - we got rid of most of what we needed to and I am freecycling the remainders.

We have had some gorgeous days here the past 2-3 days. Beautiful, clear skies - reminding me of the mediterrean skies of Rome in August. It has been hot in the sunny but breezy and cool in the shade - PERFECT! Makes me happy to be in central New York.

The moving/storage unit will be delivered tomorrow and we shall start loading it. The dogs are a little hinky. I think they sense turmoil and our house is in such disarray.
Good new though....things should start happening fast and furious with the house. We bought a new fridge yesterday to be delivered right before we move in. And yes, thanks to Al Gore, we made sure to get one Energy Star certified :-)

I always try to put links in. People devote a lot of time to posting these recipes on the internet. As someone who likes to cook but not create recipes, I am very grateful they do. Credit where credit is due :-)
