Day 73 - Thanks

This morning, Denise and I hopped up after a very enjoyable day yesterday with extended work family. Where I work, we traditionally have a potluck where we invite our families to the office for the afternoon and then enjoy an exciting tradition of pre-Thanksgiving Plasma Car races on the parking garage roof. We are a bit competitive. (don't let the picture fool you, I won that race). The food was great, and the company better. I found the food mostly inappropriate for PCP and enjoyed walking around and talking to people without having to balance a plate and wine glass. Nice. It was a really great day. Now, I have a few days to be devoted to my own schedule, workouts and errands.

Today, we also headed to the Whole Foods store for fixin's to make a healthy pumpkin pie and small cornish hens for some protein. Thanksgiving needed some recognition, so I am going to make a #raw crust of walnuts and dates, then a pumpkin filling of organic pumpkin puree, flaxseed, tofu and spices. We are pretty excited. Then we threw everything in the refrigerator and treated ourselves to the gym for some gravity defying pull-ups before they closed. A few pics uploaded, and we are getting ready to create a healthy meal where we know all the ingredients and can choose our portion sizes.

Today, I am thankful for our health and how we are so fortunate this year to be able to workout, enjoy healthy real food, and share a little joy with others. I hope everyone is having a great day with friends, family and loved ones. Happy Thanksgiving PCP'ers and Patrick.
