I'm going into this weekend siked. I'm not even sure why....just in a good mood I guess. So, Happy Friday everyone!
I always try to cook something I wouldn't normally do on Saturday and Sunday and this weekend it will be crab cakes. I found crab meat on sale at Trader Joe's yesterday and I've already adapted my recipe so it is low carb. Then on Sunday, I'm going to use the leftovers and make an Eastern Eggs Benedict for breakfast. (replace the English muffin with a crab cake). Yum!
Next week may prove challenging. My Director will be visiting my office which could mean eating out more than normal. I think I can talk her into Buffalo Wild Wings and if so, I'll be just fine. I think I could eat hot wings every day of the week. Gotta love spicy garlic.
A while back I posted a journal entry that I had been asked to participate in a half-marathon (walking not running). My struggle has been the weather here in the Midwest...too cold to walk outside. I've been a bit conflicted because it would mean possibly joining a second gym. I have a Curves membership but they don't have treadmills. But, the local 24 hour gym is running a special for $19.99 a month with unlimited access (12month contract, no enrollment fee). That's not bad at all and I think it would be worth it. I think I'll give them a call and see about going in for a visit. I'm not mentally (or physically for that matter) ready for a 'meat market' type gym, but I don't think this place is like that. Boy I hope ;)
UPDATE: Friday night I did enroll at the local 24 hour fitness center. I'm looking forward to getting started soon.
Saturday's crab cakes turned out AWESOME! The whole family loved them and I have enough left over for Easter Eggs Benedict tomorrow. Yeah.
