Sunny side up

I was in a sour mood earlier today. I was really tired by the time I left school. It was a long hard day. But I had to go out of town to run an errand. I really didn't want to go because I wanted to go home and veg out. However, I had to go. It was sunny out. I didn't know that. I hadn't had time to look out a window all day. And the snow was beginning to melt. I put my sunglasses on and listened to NPR throughout the drive. I don't know at what point my mood changed, but it did. When I got home, I started cooking. I made tenderloin and spinach again. It was just as good as the first time I made it. I had enough energy to whip up a batch of Southwestern Corn chowder for tomorrow's lunch and then some (I took a picture this time. Check it out at my first entry).

Thinking about how my mood turned around made me think about how much pleasure I'm getting from this blog. It has been marvelous. It's made this diet interesting. It's given me a venue to express my concerns about dieting, and it's allowed me to be creative with my cooking and my writing. I don't know how many readers I have out there, but thank you. If it's just one or thousands, thank you. Thinking about you out there supporting me has made a great difference. And I'm happy to say that I've now lost 55 pounds. Only 45 more until I reach my goal!!!
