Asiago cheese one of my favorites, The other is jalapeno but they don't have those all the time.0 -
It is filled with asiago cheese.
How is that a bagel? Where's the hole? I don't understand!

Thank-you Nonoelmo Crosbylee, Peleroja, and Patricia, about the 5K It was a big surprise for me. Kinda like getting candy at the end of the day as a reward for being good.
Patricia, How did the race go?
Kelly_c Ha! Funny there was several times I saw things yesterday that I thought of the game too.
Myles, I wish you could be able to run again too, I know what you mean about being able to relax and clear your mind when out running. It does that for mede too. I have done water aerobics before but it is much more social. It also can be as strong or light as you make it. I have never tried water running like you describe, it sounds hard especially in the deep end. Do you do it alone or in a group?
You did have a great time there, Wendy. my attitude toward running is that I hate it unless I have something to pray about, in which case run and pray until you feel better.0 -

Thanks! I did buy some peppermint horse cookies but didn't know about whether it was ok to feed them, so I wanted to check. I do know how to do it though, because I used to ride when I was young (fell and broke my wrist really badly when I was 12 and never rode much again after that). I'll take some pics next time I'm out. They all seem to be very friendly and interested - they all come and say hi, and follow us around.Patricia, thank you for the Valentine card! How sweet you are x

Also, I need to ask you about feeding horses treats. Is there an etiquette to it? There are 8 horses who live on Batcave Acres at the moment, and I would love to give them treats, but I wondered if it's a no-no unless the owner has specifically approved it? (A bit like how most parents wouldn't be ok with someone randomly giving their kid candy..?) Thoughts?
I would ask the owner. But typically carrots or apples are fine but you should ask just to be polite. Or peppermints! Some horses bite so you want to be sure you get a sense of the horses. Also make sure you hold your hand completely flat they will then just pick it up off your hand. People make the mistake of wrapping their fingers around the food so the horses accidentally bite them.
A lot of owners discourage hand feeding because it can lead to biting behavior or the horses being pushy or rude. Which you don't want to teach them.
You'll have to take pictures and post or send them to me. I can't wait to see them!
Good luck with your race today!
Then I am sure you will be fine feeding them the treats!0 -

It only occurs in houses without children. Sorry
Yes! Cleaning dishes was so much easier without kids.
I thought she meant fairness. Although cleaning dishes is easier without kids too..
You know! That is the only part about my son moving to school I will enjoy, that I can go out with a clean kitchen and come home to a CLEAN kitchen!0 -

I do it on my own during the adult lap time at the pool. I pretty much have to schedule myself around my kids, and so I get the time when they are at school to do stuff, and the classes and groups aren't until the evening.
Good news is my running partner has said that her husband teaches one of the swim teams here, and he has offered to coach me in swimming if I want him too. So yay, if I choose to actually try a tri, I have a coach.
And your run time is what I worked up to after 2 years, Excellent job!! You will totally get that 5k in 35 minutes.Italian_Buju wrote: »kelly_c_77 wrote: »marissafit06 wrote: »WestCoastJo82 wrote: »WestCoastJo82 wrote: »

I am that way about the picking up of the legos. Its nice to be able to go in and out of their room and not have to wear like steel boots to not injure myself.

Halloween candy?
You could always take the leftovers to work & put it in the break room.
I confess I've ate like a fat pig the past two days (Saturday/Sunday) & have gained a crazy amount of water weight. I'm mad at myself, but will get back to it today.
I still think one of my biggest triggers is eating too early in the morning. I think I'm going to start eating around 11:00 AM for my first meal (the time might fluctuate based off my work schedule) & then eat my later meal around 7-8 at night. This way I figure I can cut down on mindless snacking & at the same time include mini snacks with my main meals.
My trigger is vacation. I was off the last two days and ate so bad.
I'm going to be up about 5 lbs again! 
I've been on vacation the past week, and I did the same thing. Total pig out city! I should be better once I go back to work.
Kellyjelly and Froggy, you both had time off from work and birthdays to celebrate. You had reasons to eat delicious things. Back to work, back on track. You've both got this!
1000 calorie pb&j sandwich sounds amazing.
I'm so sorry I missed your birthdays. I hope you had a great time.
It was Kelly's birthday but Froggy was celebrating her sister's birthday..so you didn't actually miss hers!

Myles you should totally try a triathlon it's a great community with wonderful people who help and support one another.
BTW the trail run was HARD! I managed not to fall. We missed a turn so only ran 11.5 miles vs. the planned 13.1 and I was grateful. I will be sore tomorrow.0 -

I can't believe I shared that.
I have done that too!!! haha
I'd also like to confess I just finished my 3rd beer and I'm ready for another one. It will be the 3rd time I have had alcohol this year. I knew I should have just bought singles but the lovely craft ones only come in a box. What's a girl to do? No way I'm pouring water in them and throwing them out. lol
@Italian_Buju, on this! Bingo!0 -

When I get the go ahead to run again, I will look into that for sure.
Hey, you finished even with the short cut. That is excellent. Was the terrain hilly? I've only ever run a 13.1 on a 10 ft (over the whole course) elevation change.

Hi Christyk welcome to the thread. I've done that. Worse when I make frosting for my cakes I often make too much on purpose. Awe shucks we can't let this go to waste. I must save my children from this. Cream cheese and german chocolate cake frostings are my downfall.0 -

Awesome job Pof! Glad you didn't fall.0 -
I can't keep junk in the house or I will eat it all...in one sitting. There have been chocolate cream pies that have disappeared in an evening...there are only two ppl in my household. I put signs on the pie that say things like "don't eat this, you will regret it" in an effort to discourage myself from eating it all and then my fiancée will walk into the kitchen and find me with a mouthful of pie and I yell "I regret nothing!" and keep eating...so yeah, not an ounce of junk in our house now.
Also, when I was really trying to restrict my intake (bad idea, I know now) I have stopped at the bakery on the way home from work saying "oh, we just need some bread" and then I will buy half a dozen doughnuts and scarf two or three of them on the way home...

Many have been there. I keep nothing in the house for that reason as well. It won't last.

Extremely hilly. My hips and glutes are killing me. It was beautiful and very fun. I'll post some pics later.
Clearly I need to do a lot more of this before tackling the JFK 50 miler in the fall.0 -

You are my hero. I can't even think about 13 miles of "extremely hilly". I hope you can walk tomorrow.
