Monday

 

Delicious everything salad: lettuce, tomatoes, peaches, oranges, blueberries, strawberries, turkey, Swiss, walnuts, and pickles.

We saw dolphins playing under the tidal bridge on our causeway walk this morning.


Two dolphin playing right off the seawall.

Partly cloudy, but temperatures in the mid 70s.

We went to Publix to buy fresh ingredients for our dinner tonight: Spinach, sweet potato, and lentil dhal. We'll celebrate John's 59th birthday! Click on the image to see the recipe. 

After lunch, we took Toby to the community center for a walk. It has already gotten too hot to walk him around the neighborhood.

The water levels are up all around town from the recent rains.

These turtles are enjoying the fountain base in the middle of the pond.

Mid-afternoon, I rode my bike down to Weaver Park to do yoga and lift weights. It was a beautiful 79 degrees.

I took Victoria Drive to the marina.


It took me almost a year, but I finally figured out how to strap on my yoga mat so that it's comfortable to ride.


The new sailing center has been completed, much improved from the previous version.


Dinner prep sweet potatoes, purple onion, spices

lentils 

cubed sweet potatoes

spinach, basil, green onions

Delicious. We added some avocado on top. Excellent meal. Extremely healthy. Makes enough for 4-6. We used the regular lentils rather than the pricey red lentils.

It's going to be a busy week for us:
Tuesday: We're meeting new friends downtown for lunch. They're neighbors we've met just walking Toby. We're going to try a new restaurant on Broadway called Senor Rita's. Clever name, right?
Wednesday: our designer is meeting at our house with a floor demolition person to discuss costs and logistics.
Thursday: dentist in the morning and meet our Congressional candidate, Whitney Fox, at a neighborhood meet n greet that evening.

Our kitchen project was finalized, notarized, and entered into the county property records.
