Bits of this and that

I'm having appliance fantasies. I want a vitamix 5200. 400 smackers at Costco. Yikes. That will stay a fantasy for awhile unless a little fairy decides to grant me a wish.

I found this great site about local food- http://www.localharvest.org/. Very cool. I didn't even know there was a farm by my house. I'm gonna see if they sell from the farm or if I have to hunt them down at a farmer's market.

I'm conducting an experiment today. Even though I'm not counting calories, I was curious about how many calories I burn in a day. So.. since last night at 10pm, I've been wearing my heart rate monitor that tells you how many calories you've burned. I don't know how accurate it is, but I'm sure it's a reasonable guess. With an hour to go, I'm at 2300... that includes just the normal day activities and 25 minutes of cardio.

All in all, today's been a nice day. I made a cabbage burrito for lunch. Down right tasty! I'll post some of my most favorite recipes as this goes on. Too tired tonight. Goodnight Wednesday.
