Crutches make for a rather unfortunate Halloween prop.
I mean….they do open up the door to a lot of costume possibilities.
An injured marathon runner. An injured Olympic athlete. An injured NBA player.
But let’s be honest. No one wants to make out with the injured anything when they can make out with the functionally bipedal sexy “insert noun here”.
Yesterday, my brother happened to be over around dinnertime and I happened to have just made these and so I happened to offer him an ENTIRE RAMEKIN (!!!) all to himself.
And he said no.
If you crave sweet and salty as much as I do, then this maple-miso glazed tofu with broccoli and winter squash is the recipe for you! Check out my post on Marcus Samuelsson’s site for the recipe! (And for all of my tofu-hating readers out there…this would also be awesome with chicken, pork or salmon.)
I’m always trying to get my friends to run with me to cure cancer. (I typically train with Team in Training, and in doing so raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.)
But as soon as I start saying things like, “You could just do the half marathon!” they look at me like I have six heads and back away slowly as quickly as possible. Apparently 13.1 miles of running doesn’t sound quite as appealing to them as it does to me.
Eating to cure cancer, on the other hand? That they can handle.
Did you know that runners are good in bed?
Honestly, I had no idea. Seeing as how…I have not been “in bed” with anyone since before becoming a runner. (TMI?)
But that’s what I was told yesterday by a stellar individual who was trolling the online dating website I occasionally frequent, looking for an easy lay. Apparently we, as runners, “have stamina and stuff”. And “stamina and stuff”, in case you didn’t know, is useful for more than just running.
Wink wink nudge nudge.
I have a very Goldilocks and The Three Bears relationship with caramel.
Too light. Too dark.
Too sweet. Too burnt.
A whole lexicon full of “too” adjectives.
