On the Ball: Roll-aways
Another entertaining exercise. The Ball is unstable. It rolls. Unless you exert force to keep it in place. Which means you engage many large and small muscles. Very time-efficient. And it burns more calories.
Slower Sunday: May Flowers
April showers sure paid off. Take a little break, just a minute, to look at something beautiful. Nothing else. Maybe you'll end up thinking you gotta go to the park. A botanical garden or something. Or maybe you won't think about anything at all. Just Press Play.
Better Cheaper Buns
Homemade buns for hamburgers and hot dogs. So much Better than those artificially moist things in plastic bags you think they'd be twice the price. No. They're half the price. They're airy and flavorful. So good you could skip the burger and have one for breakfast.
To Amphitheater Lake in the Tetons
This is one of those hikes that makes your day. Makes your vacation. Makes IMAX look like a postcard. Ten miles out and back. Six thousand feet up and down. 4,000 calories burned. A great full day.
Spring Frittata
A perfect meal in a pan. Early Spring asparagus and onions. Really fresh eggs and goat cheese. For dinner on a still cool night, eat it warm. For lunch, let it cool to room temperature. A few minutes of chopping and stirring. One suspenseful second of flipping.
Pizza with onions to cry for.
Looks too beautiful to eat. Tastes even Better. Maybe the best under-$2 pizza ever. The crust is light and crisp, just faintly salty and sweet at the same time. The onions are very sweet, almost caramelized. Required kitchen skills: stirring, slicing.
Pizza 103. No experience necessary.
No rolling pins. No tossing and spinning dough. If you've been waiting for the easy way out, here it is. It can't go wrong. I think you'll love it.
On the Ball: Roll-ups
Here's another Way to amuse yourself while you exercise. The Ball is unstable. It rolls. Unless you exert force to keep it in place. Which means you engage many large and small muscles. Very time-efficient. And it burns more calories.
Lime-Orange Olive Oil Cake
Hard to say if this is better for breakfast or for dessert. Depends if you want ice cream with it. Either way, it's a light, moist and refreshing cake. Very intense lime flavor makes it vibrant. A little orange for sweet. Olive oil keeps it moist and light. Ten minutes to prepare.
The Walk That Ate Rome
Big city. Many ways to see it. You could walk from church to church. Museum to museum. Or eat your Way through it, from Farmers Market to Farmers Market. They're everywhere. Walk at a moderate pace: 18 miles and 4,000 calories in 9 hours. Some day.
