What a Fricken Day…

Posted by jjbarde on September 8, 2006

The thing that most defined my day today was my 50 mile bike ride home that was supposed to be 35 miles. I thought Id stay of the bike trails that I normally use, and go street only because I was nervous about my rear tube. I had patched it before my ride because I was out of tubes. Anyway that was awesome. This morning for breakfast I made a Salmon Frittata and it kicked ass, except I cut the tomatoes too thick and I ended up taking a few off. And for dinner I made Mole Chicken, which doesn’t rate as high on my Kick Ass scale but it was still pretty good. I got both recipes from the Whole Foods website. I used the Google Calendar today, and that worked out really well. I listed everything important that I wanted to do today, and I figured if I got it all done my reward would be to do whatever the hell I wanted. That’s the only part that got screwed up. It turned out that I used all the free time I would have had aimlessly riding my bike around lost. At least I got a good workout. Also, I started searching for some blogs today just for the sake of commenting on some people posts. I intended to focused on blogs that I noticed didn’t have many comments, and in the process I found a few really cool posts. I gotta share this one with you… Do you even exist? Well I suppose time will tell. So here’s one of the posts I particularly like: Asset Allocation in 30 Minutes a Year by simplelight. Anyway Have a good one.

Homemade Mayonnaise

Posted by jjbarde on September 6, 2006

After dinner tonight I made an artichoke, and some homemade mayo as a dip. These were both firsts for me, and it turned out wonderful, and the mayonnaise especially stood out. I will never buy mayo again if I can help it. As far as I can tell the only downside is the short shelf life (2 weeks). Anyway if youre interested click the links for the recipes I used. Enjoy!
