I’ve been craving salads and veggies lately (as in, the past two days 
), so I’m capitalizing on the healthy trend. Tip #1: Capitalize on your natural healthiness—like broccoli? Eat it like a champ. Think playing frisbee is the best thing ever, like my husband? Join a league…or start your own.
Anyway! Lunch was a Quorn cutlet, tomatoes and salad:
Yes, that's ketchup. Salad: greens, feta, kalamata olives, avocado, raspberry-walnut dressing
Disguting.
I haven’t had a Quorn cutlet since I became “non-vegetarian” my sophomore year of college. They’re quiet good. They provide that…chicken-ish taste that processed chicken products have…but they’re not chicken, so I like them. If it were chicken I’d be creeped out.
I was thinking about last night, seeing all of those athletic people playing frisbee, and it really motivated me. I’ve been in a fitness slump for the past few weeks, but it helped me see my priorities. Not that I want to be playing frisbee, but it feels good to be able to do things that in the past I could have never dreamed of doing—handstand, for instance, or running 20 minutes without stopping. It seems small, but these accomplishments mean something. They’ve taken time—months, in the case of yoga, and years, in the case of running—to achieve. But I’m proud of them, should be and it took last night to kind of jog that attitude out of me. Like, “Oh yeah! I’m fit, too”.
It’s neat that for the first time in my life I can say: I’m fit. I’m athletic. Pretty cool. Definitely never thought I’d say that in high school.
Speaking of high school, I’m totally 10 years late on the Buffy the Vampire Slayer trend. I just now, as in last week, started watching episodes on Hulu. It’s campy. And the effects are bad. But the acting isn’t terrible and the folklore they call upon is pretty interesting. That’s me…10 years late
