No breakfast today!?

Last night I started the painstaking process of ripping my entire CD music
library (easily 200+ albums) into iTunes, then into the iPod portion of the
iPhone. Woke up this morning and began where I left off, skipping breakfast.
First time in a while.

I'll be sure to have lunch.

You?

nancy,

Heh heh heh heh heh!

Fine by me. You start it back up!

You've always shown an exemplary sense of humor over all these years.

I'll even retire my CotD #2.

Used our new Breville Panini Grill to make a wonderful back bacon,
turkey breast, edam, onion, tomato sandwich for breakfast. Used a hint
of smoked praprica, pinch of sea salt and alittle hot sauce, was
wonderful with a glass of orange juice and a half pot of french roast.
The grill is now my best friend

Kris,

Thanks!

Apple's iTunes is also flawed about fetching album artwork, sometimes.
That's causes an extra step. Obviously a license agreement among the record
companies and Apple. The Beatles artwork and other artists' have to be
fetched and pasted in separately from other music sites.

I was surprised that the ITunes store DID find my uncle's albums artwork!

Best,

Andy

My album art is all wrong too. Sometimes it's amusing what they assign
to a song!

Kris,

I got a great pointer, if you google or amazon.com search for album artwork
and clipboard copy it, in iTunes you need to choose all an album's songs,
then get info. Then check the "artwork" checkbox and paste in the album
art.

Frustrated me completely until somebody else shared the magic!

Good luck,

Best,

Andy

Man! That frittata sounds good. Can it be made in advance? Where can I
find the recipe?

Thank you, Andy. For breakfast I had a half a cranberry/nut muffin left
over from yesterday's breakfast at Perkins. And a banana.

For lunch, escaped the heat to have lunch at Bobby's Burger Palace.
I chose the LA burger and a vanilla malted. Both items were
*excellent*.

Leftover BBQ and two basted eggs. Same as yesterday.

I'm easily amused. ;-)

I prefer to eat AFTER I work out.
I cannot exercise on a full stomach! I'd end up tossing it up.

I see.

Many people sip on sports drinks or shakes at the gym. I suspect they do
that for similar issues.

Hypoglycemia can be a challenge?

I don't believe I've ever seen a bean empanada. Is it sweet (like the Asian
red-bean pastries), or something which would go with salsa?

That's about my preference too; I've come very close to passing out during a
workout because there was no "gas in the tank" -- and I am NOT hypoglycemic,
not even borderline.

No. It is savory, made of black beans, obviously with some cheese
in them. Kind-of like fairly solid refried beans in texture. I
guess one could augment them with salsa.

Are you sure?

My workouts have been being done for quite awhile now after not eating
for at least 12 hours. I quit eating a meal at work to cut calories and
go to the gym on my way home.

I've never, ever had that problem.
