Don’t Have a Keg…

Well, summer is here in my neck of the woods - but with it comes my annual battle with allergies. They have kicked into high gear this weekend and in fact may be a summer cold. In any event, I haven’t felt up to the gym the past couple of days, but as things seem more under control this evening I am hoping to get back tomorrow.

I don’t know about you, but I think the toughest part of training is the eating. Not in terms of getting enough calories - Lord knows I have enough experience in that (in fact it is one of my areas of expertise) - but in terms of finding wholesome, quality food that isn’t filled with the usual corn fructose syrup, refined sugar, etc. So I was pleased to visit a new organic deli and bakery that opened up near my workplace! As so often seems to be the case, I found it a little pricier than I would like - but I think my overall health is worth it.

This new place, plus the general trend of big retail groceries actually having decent organic sections now - well, it looks like my excuses for not eating right are going out the window.

Of course, I still have to avoid the cakes and pastries at their bakery counter. Organic doesn’t always mean healthy!
