Thurs 15 Feb

Had a really lovely time going out for Valentine's dinner to Watchman's Gone last night. It's nice to be in a comfortable, familiar environment where you are known by the staff and to get such lovely food. We shared an appetizer tray with homemade Middle Eastern cream cheese (nableh?), some seasoned with za'atar and some drizzled with honey, accompanied by walnuts, kalamata olives, pepper jelly, fresh figs, and naan. For entree, we each had the fettuccine with roasted Mediterranean vegetables and shredded Gruyere. Also a nice salad. For dessert, we shared a piece of white chocolate cheesecake with fresh berries. And two glasses of wine (each)! What a lovely morning for a walk with Kathy! Mild temperatures, some ice but not awful. We did the full Schmeeckle loop. Food: 7:20 am 1 c Quaker Oat Squares, 1/2 c soy milk, 101 g blackberries, coffee Exercise: 8:05-9:50 am Walk w/Kathy
