Food & Exercise -- 5/11/2007

Usual Friday morning of gym visit followed by grocery store stop. In
the evening DH and I went to an event at the German Embassy sponsored
by the German Wine Society -- the annual Spargelfest dinner. Spargel
is the German word for asparagus, and it's traditional in Germany to
celebrate the asparagus season -- particularly white asparagus -- with
festivals.

Food:

* 7:00 (home): oatmeal w/ peanut butter & flax seed
* 1:30 (home): 2 poached eggs on 1 slice whole wheat toast w/ 3 slices
f/f cheese & grated French hard cheese
* 3:00 (home): 1 square from dark chocolate & almond bar
* 7:30 (Spargelfest dinner): 2 1/2 glasses wine; white & green
asparagus, served cold with a vinaigrette & hot with hollandaise;
thinly-sliced Westphalian ham; roast potatoes; chicken fricasee; black
bread; smoked salmon; rote greuze (red berry compote) w/ vanilla
sauce; apple strudel w/ whipped cream {Didn't eat too much of any one
thing except maybe the asparagus, but it was still a fair bit of
food.}

Exercise:

* 10:00: Lifting: walking lunges w/ bar on back; stiff-legged
deadlifts; leg extensions; prone leg curls; calf extensions; hip
adductor; hip abductor

* 11:00: 75-minute power vinyasa yoga class {More strenuous than usual
-- different instructor was substituting.}
