Yesterday, after my brave resolutions to get back on program, I was ambushed by a pretty blue bottle of Philadelphia-distilled gin. I am happy to report, though, that despite two martinis I managed not to eat the walls and woodwork and ended the day without having to bust into my bonus points.
Dinner was a vegetable extravaganza: the entree was a small mound of brown rice topped by a medley of onions, green peppers, zucchini and mushrooms sauteed in a little bit of olive oil, dry vermouth, and concentrated chicken stock. The vegetables were seasoned with oregano, marjoram, and cayenne. Accompanying this was steamed broccoli lightly dressed with olive oil and more concentrated chicken stock.
For dessert I worked through more of the giant container of blueberries we bought at our granddaughter's suggestion.
This morning, to work off the martinis, I biked 20 miles -- slowly, but I got the miles. Breakfast was quite late, so I'll have a snack to hold me till dinner.
