- I ran ten miles Saturday. I'd like to treat this fact with casual indifference, to make it sound like it was no big deal to me. But I'm not going to lie: it was awesome and I'm both proud and surprised.
- The plants in our garden have sprouted. There are lots of baby herbs and some little pepper sprouts. I hope things continue to go well, regardless of rogue, off-season snow storms.
- Because there are five full work days ahead of me, filled with hastily-made lunches and thrown together dinners, I'm going to (fatly) reminisce about Saturday's dinner. We've been attempting deep dish pizzas lately, using cake pans and protein crumbles (which sound... gross). This is just before covering the whole thing in cheese. It was no Chicagan deep dish... But right now, as my boring work day lunch microwaves, even this terrible quality picture of it is enough to make me weep.Not really. But it was pretty good. Especially after that run (I'll keep bringing it up until I'm no longer astounded that I actually did it).
- I really don't know why I keep posting food pictures on here. I've no talent, really, in the kitchen, besides the basic obedience of following recipes and the ability to learn (wing it) from experience. And rarely am I inspired enough to actually pull out a REAL camera to document anything. And I'm certainly no food blogger/photographer like this'n or even this part-time one.
Yeah, I literally have no reason to be posing food pictures. I can't even think of a theory. Maybe I'm just busy enough with working that I think even my meals are enough of a diversion to be worthy of documentation. - Well, don't worry. And I say this mainly to myself, I guess. This will be the last phone/computer camera taken photo of a meal I've made, unless I have a good reason.
- I ran ten miles.

1. Walking ten miles is amazing in itself, none the less running. That is extremely impressive and I am jealous of your stamina, perseverance, self-control and physical ability...all of which I completely lack.
2. a. I like your food photography and I myself have been thinking about attempting a deep dish pizza. I was thinking I may half way bake the pizza dough and then take it out, put all the toppings on and then bake the rest of the way. What is your suggestion?
b. I don't have any talent in cooking beyond following a recipe. I experiment here or there but usually don't sway too far out.
3. I feel like a celebrity every time I find myself in one of your posts.
4. I am planning on starting my square foot garden soon but feel that I am already too late.
5. Every time I read the url for your blog "http://joriecrit.blogspot.com/" I read it as jorie crit (even though I know ecrit means writes) and then I get panicky thinking I have been writing your name wrong all these years.
