I had a killer run yesterday, even though I kept trying to slow it down every mile was mostly faster, and I had several miles at 8:10, 8:11, 8:14, 8:20, 8:44.
I am tired and sore today. So I'll either do great, or I will do terrible today!
@pofoster21 you will do super duper great! Keep chanting to yourself faces are good protein, faces are good protein, faces are good protein.
This is too funny. I wish I had seen it before the race.
I posted this in the NSV thread but I had a great race. It was a small race but even so I was 3rd female overall! Ran 7:53 average and finished in 49.04 minutes. I was thrilled.
Way to go! Which race is next?0 -
I confess that I'm not a big fan of fish, never have been. But it is high in protein and good fats so in the interest of being an adult I have started to eat the non-fishier tasting ones. I also am getting kinda sick of soup for lunch every day so I decided to try tuna salad on a sandwich. Just in case I couldn't choke it down, I brought some pringles with my lunch today. I was thinking a tuna salad and potato chip sandwich (I guess I'm just not that good at adulting). Well the sandwich wasn't too bad but I still ate the pringles.
Which ones are those? I am also not a fan of fish.
I like tilapia. You can sprinkle it with minced garlic and parmesan, salt & pepper, then fry it till the parmesan gets crispy. I like to add a little bit of spicy seasoning to it, too. And I fry it in garlic-infused olive oil (best thing ever). Anyhow, even though it sounds horribly calorie-dense with the frying, it's really not bad at all. I eat it with a baked potato and some cottage cheese. Tasty!
I think tilapia is pretty mild - it's a fairly inexpensive white fish. In the States, you can get a package of frozen filets for pretty reasonable prices. Might be worth a try?
Yum will have to try the bag of tilapia fillets with some parmesan the next time I make it.0 -

Me too!
Fortunately my SO will patiently extract crab meat for me so I don't have to do any of the work. He's a saint.0 -

Agreed. I love crab. I love the melted butter just as much! (I was just in Superstore - they have a special on frozen crab legs this week. I wonder if it's on over your way too...?)Italian_Buju wrote: »

I'd find it fun if I weren't so hungry for that tasty meat

This is wonderful news. I know what you mean about solid brick. Our first house was lath and plaster, and half flint! Walls either crumbled or needed a jackhammer to get through them!I feel like this needs some kind of trumpet fanfare to announce it.
We have finished re-wiring our house! We had to do it in stages because it was just too much money, mess and time to do all at once. It started in March and the house fought us every step of the way - solid concrete floors downstairs and upstairs, but of course. Solid brick walls, even internally. Weird steps all over the place. Ah it wasn't fun at all. But now it is finished and I have light switches NEXT TO DOORS and sockets IN EVERY ROOM. I can't get across how novel this is for me. I spent the whole weekend cleaning everything and rearranging everything (we had to empty out the whole kitchen) and painting over cracks.
So I'm shattered now. But relieved we got this big, messy job finished before the little'un arrives. We might even think about doing some actual plastering and decorating before the birth and I can have a normal room in my house. I need a rest for a couple of days though.
I know your house is a 'project' - how much more work do you have to do?

I actually have never had it at home, is it easy to cook properly?
ETA: I do not have a superstore near me

It seems pretty easy! I never thought to use poultry shears to remove the meat. I might have to pick some up when they're on sale.0 -
Guys, guys! Raelynn peed in her potty!!!! She actually told me she needed to go pee, and then sat down and went!! Normally she just sits there or says she wants/needs to go and then freaks out. This is amazing, and I'm beyond proud of her!! This is the first time she's gone on her own without being prompted by one of us!

Yes, very easy - boiling water for a few mins.

I love ALL the fish! But SSP says eating a lot of fish makes me smell different (in a bad way and not even 'down there') and he's not a huge fan.0 -

Of all the non-fishy tasting fish, I wouldn't have chosen tuna! I would have gone for the classics cod or haddock. If you want a more meaty fish go for swordfish or shark. Or if you like delicate I would go for plaice or Sole. Lemon Sole is nice. If you can't tell, I LOVE fish

Mr. Susie and I tried lobster once, for the first time. We were so embarrassingly bad at getting anything out of the shells that a staff member came over and stayed with us and did it for us. 0 -

I pay extra at some restaurants to have them remove it for me. I only like the tail.0 -
