Pancakes

After eating this blueberry pancake I realized what my favorite food is... thirds! If I keep eating like this my rowing machine will sink! But you've got to love it. This pancake was like an NBA player, it flopped over the side... of my plate. Anyway, with lots of butter and really good syrup you can forget about a diet anytime, which is exactly what I did over the holidays.

Now that I'm home and back from vacation, I've been going to the Y to workout. There are all these people attending my exercise classes I don't know. In fact, I've never seen them before. I suppose it's okay, they'll all be gone by February!

Hospital food

My friend Robert's wife had appendicitis last week. She spent an entire week in the hospital after it ruptured. She's lucky to be alive. And then she spent all this time in the hospital. Hospitals are so weird. They put you in a private room and then give you a public gown. She said the food was so bad she begged them to put her back on intravenous feeding! With the cost of health care these days, you would think the food would be more than a sacrifice or a burnt offering.
