Carbo Fully Loaded

Today was the annual color run in B'more.  I joined half a dozen friends post-run for brunch.  Not that I ran in the race.  I had breakfast then went to church.  They ran around.  And we met up to eat.  Just like how I like my Sundays to be.

Not only did I not start my day with exercise, my biscuit consumption sank to a new low.  Or maybe a new high.  

Ilene: What, do they know you by name?

Moi: Oh, we're long past that point.  

This morning, I didn't get a biscuit sandwich at the farmer's market.  I "just" got a slice of poundcake.  And Damian (the benevolent biscuit baron) expressed his disappointment.  "This isn't like you."  "But I also got a plain biscuit!"  "That's a little better.  I'm just surprised.  I thought you would have gone for the oxtail."  

Having 2 breakfasts isn't easy, Folks (2.5 if you count the bite of challah I stole before I left the house).  And sometimes, it means disappointing a few biscuit-makers along the way.
