Fourth of July Menu Plan & Numbers

Quickly, before I get to the menu plan for the week, I have to share some interesting facts.

First, this post on running clothes, was my 900th blog post! I can’t believe I have written that much here! It has been almost 3 years, so I guess that is about right – roughly 300 posts/year.

Next, as of my 6 mile run in a thunderstorm yesterday with MIT, I have run 600 miles for the year! If I keep up my current pace, I should hit 1200 miles for the year, which would make my biggest mileage year yet! Let’s hope the legs & feet hold up!

Now, the menu. Holiday weeks are great for spending time with family & getting an extra day or 2 off work. They are not great for keeping on schedule. The trash gets pushed back a day; I get easily confused through the week as to which day it is; my sleep gets messed up. Yes, I am getting old and persnickety. I would like to know when I turned into a curmudgeon. I like predictability, people, and I haven’t had too much of it recently.

Sunday – Pei Wei (how is that for predictability?)

Monday – Quinoa with roasted veggies & edamame and salad

Tuesday – Bison burgers, sweet potato puffs, broccoli & salad

Wednesday – Sweet Thai chile salmon, brown rice, sugar snap peas & salad

Thursday –Breakfast sandwiches, homemade hash browns, fruit salad

Friday – MYOP on Udi’s gluten-free crust and salad

Saturday – Hoping to try California Pizza Kitchen’s gluten-free pizza
