Fridays are tough, because I know that dinner time will be a four-hour-long temptation. So I tend to slack-off a bit during the day. But I did manage to scarf down the
Lance's Capt... oh hell, the Lance's cracker snacks, Peanut Butter & Honey
(1 pkg. of six)
Tim Horton's coffee, black (medium)
That actually held me over for the morning. I skipped the gym to get home early enough to throw the turkey breast in the oven for later. And put together the cranberry mayonnaise. While all of that was going on I finished off a
Yoplait Light yogurt, raspberry lemonade (6 oz.)
Looking back on the day so far, I might agree with what a friend mentioned at dinner: that I don't eat enough to survive. But, survive I do (so far), so who's to say? Anyway, we'll see tomorrow after factoring-in tonight's intake, beginning at the Statler City lobby bar:
Great Lakes Brewing Co., The Wright Pils (2 pints)
The Gus Macker basketball tournament was being set up right outside, and it threw off our usual parking plan on Delaware Avenue. Paying five bucks to park in a lot is painful when street parking is free after 5 p.m., but pay we did. Ugh. Once Happy Hour was over we trekked the block up to The Old House Downtown, and the bring-yer-own buffet, where I feasted on
Mary's white beans and greens minestone (1 bowl)
roasted turkey breast sandwich on Howard's home-made wheat
bread, with cranberry mayonnaise (1)
Labatt Blue Light (1 can)
more bread, with Lynn's Amish butter
(1... okay, maybe 2 slices)
romano cheese wedges (2-ish)
Ryan's home-made ambrosia (2 healthy helpings)
After parking it for a while, we headed outside to watch the Gus Macker set-up continue, and I took a few pics of Howard shooting baskets in his suit and fedora. We then finished off on the front stoop with
espresso (a shot or two)
And then it was home to slave over this and the YAK blog, which always goes better with at least
water (12 oz.)
Sweet dreams.
