Day 191, 7/10/2013 - Eat, fast food with a large coffee for breakfast. Hard to get up to the alarm the day after vacation, needed the caffeine! Had left over burger of two from Texas Roadhouse. Their small burger of two was a meal and very good even as a leftover. Dinner was at Taverna with Marilyn. Everything is so good, well worth the drive to uptown Dallas. I had one of the daily specials, tortellini (the picture does not do it justice). Marilyn had their world famous (well, it should be!) Rissotto. We shared a Caesar Salad and chose a wonderful bottle of wine, Cantele Primativo, a lighter red, perfect for summertime. Marilyn prepared one of her delicious chocolate martinis for dessert, yum! It is dawning on me that I may never lose weight, I love to experience new tastes and flavors too much. Guess I will just have to start having less of my favorites. Hard to do when you grew up hearing about the starving children across the world. I am definitely a member of the "Clean Your Plate" club!
Pray, my prayers today are for my friend, Susie. She has financial challenges, some new, some old. I pray that she will discover new ways to approach them. Joy, my joy was in the simple beauty of the flowering plants and trees just outside my door. Even though it is bloody hot in Texas right now, I was overwhelmed with God's beauty as I snapped a few photos.
