Wasting time is what I do best.

I ate a very spicy radish today. It was like eating scoops and scoops of wasabi. I die.

Weekend diet

Every weekend I read NY Diet in NY magazine so I think I am going to start posting my meals during the weekends.

Saturday, June 19
For breakfast, we drove forty-five minutes for Mrs. Murphy's Donuts in Southwick, MA. Mrs. Murphy's is the best thing about Connecticut and it's not even in CT! They have this cake donut, honey dew, that melts in your mouth. Unlike most cake donuts, it is light and doesn't leave you feeling thick and heavy. I also got a sugar-free blueberry scone and cinnamon bun. I usually save the scone for Sunday or Monday to eat at work. The cinnamon bun, like the honey dew, melts in your mouth. It must be loaded with butter, but I love it. Greg and I shared a bowl of New England Clam Chowder, which is also loaded with butter and tons of clams. I wiped the bottom of the bowl with some of the scone.

After Mrs. Murphy's we drove to Dzen Brother's Farms and picked strawberries and blueberries. It was the end of the season for strawberries so we did not pick many. I ate a lot of strawberries while picking and it made me kind of sick. Hot strawberries taste like jam. Blueberries are barely in season and tastes very starchy when it is hot. Both the strawberries and blueberries tasted better after being refrigerated.

For a mid-afternoon snack, I had left-over pork sliders, which had cole-slaw on top. I wasn't a fan of the cole-slaw, but it was probably the best pulled-pork I have had since moving to CT. The sliders were from Diamond Bar in Glastonbury.

Dinner was at our usual, Hanah Sushi in Manchester. The fish wasn't as fresh tonight, but we got our tuna tar tar, and three rolls.

Breakfast was left-over Mrs. Murphy's.

During lunch I had corn on the cob and some chips and salsa.

After yoga, which was cancelled (to me disconcertion) I had blueberries and left-over steamed broccoli with mushroom and wine sauce. I ate more blueberries after eating all of the broccoli.

Yo, Texas representative Joe Barton is whack.

Regarding the oil spill:
“I do not want to live in a country where any time a citizen or a corporation does something that is legitimately wrong is subject to some sort of political pressure that is, again, in my words, amounts to a shakedown,” Mr. Barton added."

Really, cause I don't want to live in a country where my government apologizes to the company for ruining our water. More often than not, I find myself questioning the sanity of the Republican party and the people who vote for them.

Indecision

I spent the better half of my evening trying to buy tickets to Budapest. Stupid, stupid Orbitz! The tickets were $836 and then they were gone! Please, some airline, gives us some cheap tickets! After a week of searching, Greg and I still have no place to go in August. It was Tokyo, then Russia, and now Budapest. What are we going to do
