    Today was Pascha (Orthodox Easter), that actually fell on western Easter today - that only happens every 5-6 years.

    Brekkie: eggs scrambled with veggies, fresh side, coffee
    crazy conditioning group workout - and the last official "Funday" workout, I am moving to another coach who specializes in kettlebell lifting + conditioning, joint mobility, and working with the "active aging athlete".
    L: a bit of chicken thigh and a little milk.
    Afternoon church service followed by a HUGE parish get-together with fellowship, lots and lots of good food and beer. I didn't even attempt to keep track, it was my first "cheat" meal in months and I enjoyed it! My "cheat" involved some wonderful homemade cheesecake and rather more meat than I would have normally eaten

    I've posted a lot about my typical morning breakfast egg/veggie casserole/frittata/whatever it is. Here is a picture of the one that just went into the oven. 19 eggs, 16 cups of vegetables and ground pork. Also lots of spices! Amazing how good it is, and it comes out differently every time depending on the veggies/spices I've on hand. Obviously this provides far more than a couple of meals and it isn't just for breakfast! I will also be making some Czech meatballs tonight as well, and perhaps some homemade mayo if I've the time but I suspect that will wait until tomorrow night.

    Did my first juice today, celery, apples, kale, ginger, lemon, and cucumber. It was fantastic!

    My weight's up some, but I am done with the Passover foods, even though it's not officially over until tomorrow at sundown.
    yesterday:
    B: 2 egg omelette with cheese, bowl of strawberries, oranges. slice of spelt raisin toast
    helped lead a 28.8 mile ride, which was kind of slow, but still took up a lot of energy, as I was going back and forth, trying to help a new leader. I ate a Lara Bar on the ride
    L: after the ride some of us went out to eat. I had a veggie wrap, which was delicious, but probably should have only had half. Had a beer, too.
    S: half a banana
    D: stir fried tofu with rice sticks and veggies, 2 squares dark chocolate
    S: an apple

    Today:
    B: fried matzah with dried cranberries and some strawberries, blueberries, oranges
    L: 2 butter lettuce wraps with chicken salad
    went on a hard climbing ride of 24.5 miles. Ate a Lara Bar
    S: when we got back to our friends' house I had some herbal tea and a handful of cashews. Got home and had half a piece of matzah
    D: 2 chicken thighs with a sauce made with tomatillos, serrano chili pepper, cilantor and chicken broth. side of no lard refried beans, and half a small avocado/oranges. 2 squares dark chocolate

    B: 2 eggs over easy, 2 turkey sausages, strawberries, coffee
    went to yoga and ran around town doing errands in the pouring rain
    L: left over chick peas, spinach, tomatoes, quinoa and some curried apple soup I bought at the natural food store. delish for a rainy day
    S: spelt raisin bread and cashew butter. Another purchase at the store; more crack!
    D: we met Oakleaf and her DH for dinner. I had a salad and a scallop dish that looked deceptively small, but I could barely finish it. It had pureed cauliflower and some other veggies, and I did not feel so great when I went to bed! Of course, that might have been the wine talking to me...
