Fall Back Sunday Recap
Hey there! How’s NaBloPoMo going so far? Yesterday afternoon I noticed a had a typo in the title of my blog post. Seriously? It’s only November 2nd and I’m already totally losing it. Anyway, onward! I love the day we turn the clocks back. However, my apologies to everyone with young children. I remember ranting and raving about the time change when my own kids were young, but now that I’m past that phase, I’m singing a different tune. I got up at 5:00 this morning (which FELT LIKE 6) and drove to my favorite trail. Because of the time change, I was able to get there and start running early. This trail is in a beautiful natural area. The weather was gorgeous, and I ran 15 miles. I drank a protein shake on the way home but didn’t eat anything else, so by noon I was SUPER HUNGRY for our fall charcuterie board! Now… the day before, my husband went grocery shopping and I told him to get some vegan cheese for the board. This is what he got: Parmesan??? When I questioned it, he tried to convince me that people put that on a cheese board all the time. Um… okay. I also told him to get some vegan cold cuts, and he got this: Anyway, it was all delicious (the parmesan was a little dry and crumbly, but had a good flavor). I remember a while ago Elisabeth asked what people like on a charcuterie board- OLIVES AND NUTS for me! Yum. Then I relaxed on the couch reading blogs and watching football. The Dolphins lost on Thursday, so we already got that over with- I just half-watched whatever games came on. And, I drifted off to sleep for a while. Later in the afternoon I had to drive my daughter to the gym, clean up from lunch, and do a load of laundry. Then, dinner! I used the leftovers to make myself a veggie bacon cheeseburger (NOT with the parmesan!) Now I’m settling down for more blog reading, and I’ll finish my book, finally! It was my favorite kind of Sunday- a perfect day to have an extra hour. Would you put parmesan cheese and bacon on a charcuterie board? Did you have a nice “fall back” weekend?
