Empty Nest menu #159 and walking

On Thanksgiving morning I walked the 5 mile turkey trot at a local park's track.  It was a beautiful morning - cool and sunny.  And there weren't very many people out.  Perfect.
Not gonna lie, it was challenging.  I had to stop a couple of times to rest and reply back to my sister's text messages.  I probably need to increase my walking time during the week.  Walking is the best exercise for me - no schedules, no special equipment, and easy on my body.


Monday - Green Chili Chicken Crockpot, rice, corn {off today}
Tuesday - Thanksgiving Shepherd's Pie* for one {book club in p.m.}
Wednesday - Dinner salad with sliced chicken breast {lunch with a friend, holiday party with Beer Necessities in the p.m.}
Thursday - Quiche for One with bacon, skillet potatoes {spirits class at Total Wine}
Friday - French bread pizza, side salad {finish wrapping gifts}
Saturday and Sunday - kitchen closed

*as I was cleaning up the kitchen on Thanksgiving I filled two small oven proof dishes with layers of stuffing, turkey, gravy, sweet potatoes and stored them in the freezer.  I will thaw and bake covered 'til heated through.
