Walking to work in
below-freezing weather is so frustrating.
Because I’m wearing office-appropriate garb, my legs are freezing but my
core is sweating. Maybe I need to find a
good pair of snowpants to walk in. They’re
like a coat for your legs!
- I got to be part of unleashing a secret resident into one of our exhibits at work. I'd tell you more, but then I'd have to kill you and that's more effort than I care to invest in right now.
- Had a tasty dinner with good company at a local restaurant instead of running in the frigid wind on Tuesday, but did a kickboxing routine on Wednesday to make up for missing my run.
- The dinner that I made up inside my head turned out to be pretty danged tasty.
I don't have a recipe for the dinner, but I can give you the basics. I peeled a couple of butternut squashes, cut them into bite-sized pieces and tossed with olive oil and a bunch of spices (cinnamon, garlic, cayenne, nutmeg, cloves, salt). I roasted them until they were completely cooked. Cooked and sliced a couple of Irish Bangers (though any sausage you like would work). The next evening, I turned the production over to my partner. The squash went back in the oven to reheat while he diced and sauteed some onion in coconut oil, tossed in a box of baby kale (plus a little water) and sauteed that with the onion. Then the sliced sausage went in the pan to reheat. We piled everything together on a plate and ate it like someone was going to take it away from us. Well, I ate mine like that (because I had just finished kickboxing--Hiiiiiiiiya!). He was much more civilized about it.
