A Week With the Parents




Ive taken the past week and half spending time with my parents and enjoying their company, not to mention a little help with our Jossy Bear. 



I still had to work though, which means I still had to eat.

Here's some shots of what the past week looked like.



I made some tuna fish wraps for the family.  I used some mayonnaise and balsamic vinegar to doctor up the tuna and added chopped dried cranberries for a little sweet.



If you live in the SF Bay Area or ever visit, do yourself a favor and visit, Little Luca.  Their sandwich's are phenomenal.  I know that this blog is all about not having sandwiches for lunch, but I didn't make this one and my parents

made the purchase and I hardly pass up free food.




The Wild Turkey.  Cream cheese cranberry sauce turkey.  Thanksgiving in a sub.








Some K and Q (Kale and Quinoa) for a midweek treat.



 






Here I have some Tofu Sweet Potato soup.  Too much water and not enough coconut milk for this recipe.









We stopped off at The Creamery for their fantastic crepes.  This one here is the Pesto Margarita.  Crepes, no longer just a fancy pants breakfast food for the French.

 
 



With my parents helping out with our daughter, I was able to go out for a run after two months of being pedestrian.  A mile and half, slow but steady.  We'll see splits down in the the 7 minute range again.

I also started taking the bike into work again.  Parking in San Francisco is tough and expensive.  What I do is leave my car in an all day free parking area about a mile away from my office.  No parking headache and light morning and afternoon workout = score.





I use an old tennis ball to protect the car from pedal scratches.  Always thinking.
 
 
 
More lunches, nutrition info, and workouts.  But for now, beer and Super Bowl.
