After reading a bunch of takes on roasted corn salad / salsa, I put my own spin on this dish. I didn’t use any red onions, because one of our friends hates raw onions. I added deglazing the pan with some poblano liqueur for an extra zip. I also added some tajin, because I think … Continue reading Roasted corn salad recipe
A few months back Jeney and I visited Sprouts Farmers Market and purchased a pack of Krave plant-based jerky. To say that it was not as good as their competitors is quite frankly an understatement. The product itself was incredibly firm, lacked flavor and just wasn’t great. I let them know if my discontent. What … Continue reading The Saga of Krave Vegan Jerky
This place has been a fave of mine for quite a few years now. I was turned on to it by a friend of mine when we had a meet up here shortly before the pandemic started. Since then, every opportunity I’ve had to stop in, I made sure to do so. First and foremost, … Continue reading Out and about in Riverside County – Arcade Coffee Roasters
Unfortunately, today was one of those days where I just did not feel like working out. Most days, I kind of look forward to it. Some days, I absolutely look forward to it. Today, I just wanted to eat chocolate, drink decaf coffee and work from home. That’s the honest truth. 🤷‍♂️ I suspect that … Continue reading Day 38: did not want to work out, but I did…and other important stuff!
In my continuing series of reviews on non-alcoholic beers we have four new contenders: The Guinness 0, Stella Artois libertĂ©, Heineken 0.0 and Bravus blood orange IPA. The Guinness beer is pretty much exactly what you would think it to be. It has the little nitrogen thing on the inside, it comes in a 14.9 … Continue reading Non-alcoholic beers: these ones actually taste good!
Took a rest day, and now after my workout this morning I am Mr jelly arm LOL. I guess that’s the way it goes sometimes. I got in 20 minutes on the bike for a total of 4.3 miles. Then I did some arm weights, hit the bag for a little bit and then finished … Continue reading Day 35: after a rest day, I’m tired now…
Today is one month of my exercise routine. Hard to believe it’s already been a month. But also it seems like it’s been 6 months because the first couple weeks were damn brutal. Today when I weighed myself, I gained a full pound from yesterday. It kind of pissed me off because I was so … Continue reading Day 30: one month of exercise!
Through my journey of getting healthier, I have cut back my drinking – a lot. Heck, for 2.5 weeks I didn’t drink at all! That said, I do still want a beer some days. So in the effort to keep my blood pressure down, I have been trying out non-alcoholic beers. Some of them have … Continue reading Non-alcoholic beers: which ones are the worst? (Part 1)
Today’s workout was for 35 minutes. I upped the resistance on the stationary bike and got in 5 mi over the course of 23 minutes. I can’t lie at all, the increased resistance whooped my ass! Got my heart rate up and it made me rather tired. Despite being tired, after I was done with … Continue reading Day 29: 4 weeks down, a lifetime to go…
