Feed a Cold? Or Starve It?

I read somewhere that it's ok to exercise when you're sick, as long as the illness is confined to your head (congestion, headache, sinus pressure). Or perhaps it was if it is in your body (fever, aches, chest congestion)? I can't remember, but right now it seems important to know. I can never remember when it is OK to drink moonshine either... you're supposed to light it and if the flame burns blue (or is it orange?), it is safe to drink. And do you run from a black bear and flail your arms to look bigger while maintaining eye contact with a brown bear, or is it the other way around? These are all really important things to know, but only the first one has minimal consequences if you choose unwisely. I decided to start exercising yesterday, but slowly. Instead of a heart-thumping, sweaty workout on the beastly elliptical, I had a nice easy jaunt on the Gazelle while watching a movie. I toyed with the idea of lifting weights, but got distracted before I made a decision. Today I feel much better, so I'll get back to my usual workout, though I'll probably take it easy on the beast.

Hey, do you ever have trouble picking a restaurant for lunch? Too indecisive? Well, now there's the Wheel of Food to make the decision for you! If only it could order for me too...

There's a place in East Boston called Mario's that has THE BEST stuffed pepperoncini EVER. They stuff them with a nice chunk of asiago, prosciutto, and the best damn olive oil ever. I have no idea if it's infused or what, but they're UNBELIEVABLE.

Well... as I never get to eat lunch out-- I will tell you about my special lunch today :) On my way back to school from getting me new cast (YAY WALKING CAST!)... I made dad stop @ Panera so I could get a Bacon Turkey Bravo sandwich... MMMmmmmm... a nice treat-- got one for the other 5th grade teacher too... cause I am THAT nice :)

I LOVE the Bacon Turkey Bravo, particularly as the You Pick Two with cream of chicken and wild rice soup.

I like to get extra BRAVO sauce... Mmmmmmmmmmm... I have the other half of it for lunch tomorrow! :)
