The hot yoga went well last week, and I must say I could do with another session right now. I have extremely icy toes at the moment, and this in spite of having been for a brisk walk after lunch to get the blood pumping.I must admit the walk was also an aid to the digestion of an enormous portion of apple crumble and custard that I had during said lunch: and I'd been so virtuous with my main course choice of spicy parsnip soup and granary bread. Hey-ho. I shall celebrate good company (thanks, Will) and the freedom of self-employment, instead of feeling guilty about a few extra calories.
We had a proper family celebration on Wednesday with the birthday of number one son. We have a brilliant American diner in town called Cool Scoops, which is the only place I ever eat a burger. I could have stayed there all afternoon, because they were showing a video of Elvis in concert from way back when he was still thin and beautiful. So yes, that's another calorific lunch - and I don't care!
Have a good weekend folks.

Hi Julia, sounds like you've had a very good week with lots of yummy delights thrown in for good measure! I'm hoping weekly yoga sessions will be starting for me next week (early Friday mornings) when a new class begins where I had my taster session the other week - fingers crossed :) Have a great and relaxing weekend.

DeleteHappy Birthday to your son! I love Elvis. He had the voice of an angel. Don't worry about the extra calories, I'm sure you'll work them off in your yoga classes - and besides, you only live once, so enjoy it! :)
ReplyDeleteParsnip soup sounds lovely...wonder what the kids would say if I made some this weekend. Glad you enjoyed everything - it does sounds like a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteI think we all deserve a treat every now and then, and I'm sure it does us more good than harm. Sounds like you had a lovely family occasion.
ReplyDeleteThat apple crumble sounds delicious. Walking a few extra miles would be a small price to pay for such a good lunch. Yay for family time and happy birthday to your son! Hope you're having a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteNever feel guilty about great food - especially great burgers!
