March 21st: the "vegetarian" option at Burgers, Etc. 

(fries with bbq sauce, cheese and kidney beans).  The day 

before this, I was making my own roadkill by driving around 

(okay, on a straight road) a manual transmission vehicle, courtesy 

of Shappy.  Thanks for your faith in me and for your high tolerance for swearing.

(Some stuff I was eating a few weeks ago during postie days...)

I biked to North Van for an afternoon of relaxation in the park a weekend or two ago.  I was under-dressed -- I overheat when I bike uphill... sitting in a park at 5pm, I cooled down quickly.  Paul brought me 

some decaffeinated green tea with lemon so I didn't freeze my 

ass off. The toy dog warmed my heart also.

Another shot of my favourite place at the moment 

(North Van).  A shot of the mountains from under Lion's Gate Bridge on my bike ride home from 

Capilano Delivery Centre, at around 9:30am last week.

After some softball practice today, I made a smoothie (the usual) and this sandwich. 

(Avocado, aged white cheddar, cucumbers, green leaf lettuce, sweet 

red bell peppers, red onion, campari tomatoes. Simple and good.)

 Just in time for the rain.  Cozy times ahead.

[Spelt bread... onion, cucumber, lettuce, tomato and avocado.  Tastastic.]

I am still eating green smoothies -- banana, spinach, cranberries and strawberries are the usual ingredients these days.

I'm biking 9-10km each way each weekday at 3am and 9am-ish.  I love North Van.  

More pictures and words later.

Remind me to make this at some point soon: http://www.sweetonveg.com/2010/03/toasted-tomato-avocado-pasta-sandwich/

Long days and good food.  I have photos of this past week's fuel but blogger does not want to allow uploads, or perhaps the glitch is specific to the particular browser I'm using.  Still, Opera all the way.

I have raw pumpkin seeds sitting on my desk beside two larabars that were on sale at Choices.  I stocked up last week; it was a Friday.  Bad decision.  I ate all the bars before Monday, so I had nothing for snack!  Water doesn't quite cut it these days.  I can walk for miles and miles and miles and then nap and then eat a lot.  Yesterday when I went to Choices to buy dinner (strawberry rhubarb pie, almonds (chocolate-covered), a deluxe veggie steamroller, avocado, quesadilla... I was hungry), I grabbed a few more larabars.  Woohoo.  Raw bars, my happy start to the 5am day.
