This weekend I am apparently speechless.The critters remain and my determination to get them is, I’m afraid, a bit down. They are wearing me out, though I refuse to be beaten. Maybe my will to win will go up this week.
I did get in a nice run on Saturday, almost five miles. But it’s still not enough, and as I write this on Sunday afternoon I’ve had a glass of sangria so am certain I’m not heading out today for either a run or a routine at the gym.
Jake had a great day yesterday – he got to go to the dog park. He loved it! There were several relatives there (black labs, no Great Danes) and a new friend in the form of a black pug who was tremendously friendly. One hour of play and he was a worn out boy.
K is glad that I am, once again, eating meat on occasion. She has requested asparagus wrapped in prosciutto. The recipe:
1 T olive oil
16 asparagus spears
4 oz prosciutto (4 to 6 slices, cut into 16 strips)
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with the 1 T of olive oil.
Wrap one strip of prosciutto around each asparagus spear, starting at the bottom and spiraling to the top.
Bake for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove pan, turn asparagus, return to oven and bake another 4 to 5 minutes or until asparagus is tender and prosciutto is crisp.
This has been added to my Thanksgiving menu!
