Friday 9-20-13

I'm over the gumbo. I had my last bowl this evening, and the little that is left I'm going to freeze for another day. I gave away more than 1/2 of what I made.

I love andouille sausage. I know it's full of saturated fat, but if you cut into 3/4 inch strips, fry it, drain the oil, and rinse it in hot water, you'll get most of that fat off. You can't beat the taste.

This was a week of getting back to basics. I got in a good hike today with the dogs and my friend Darren, and I got a couple of more miles to do tonight.

I have my yearly physical scheduled next Thursday. I still doubt my ability to shed another 30 pounds before the end of the year. I'd almost have to starve myself to death, but I think I can get off half that amount, which would put me at 195 pounds. I haven't been under 200 pounds for 20 years.

It ain't gold, but I'd be overjoyed with silver.

That's it.
