Day 29 - July 30, 2023 - A Day at the Plake & An Occasion To Sin

 Hey everyone!  It's SUNDAY FUNDAY!  Here's the story. . . . . . . 

Breakfast: I made what I think are best fries I've ever made.  The seasoning was perfect!  First, coated with olive oil and then combined Salt, pepper, onion, garlic, paprika and cayenne pepper and tossed the potatoes in this.  It was absolutely the best!  I am not sure I can ever make fries differently again!  :-)  Air fryer at 390 for 12-15 minutes from raw and you are good to go.  Give it a shot.  So good!           

Add to that 2 turkey sausage links and 2 scrambled eggs, quite a nice breakfast.  (Those pretzels are not mine.)

                   

Lunch:  Now it's time to head to the "Plake."  This is the Fair Lawn Memorial Pool which is pool with sand at the bottom, so it feels like a lake but it's a pool, but it's a lake, but it's a pool . . . . It's a Plake.  Went there with the Seiz clan and the Livera clan and the Mele clan.  Had a great time there.  Since I knew what kind of dinner we were going to have, I just packed myself a peanut butter sandwich for lunch to munch on when I got hungry and that did the trick. 

Check out this crew!

Dinner: Dinner was an occasion to sin. We went to Bruno's.  Still the best undistputed champion of the world for best pizza - the square pie at Bruno's and today was no exception.  There were 15 of us, so we ordered some pies.  I only had the square pie, BUT I had 3 slices.  I could not resist. It was SOOOO good.  The square pie has not really changed since the new partial-owners got in there, except for that I feel like there is just a little extra kick somewhere in there. Not sure what it is, but I like it.  This pie was fresh, hot and perfect!  I also had 1 birch  beer and a couple pieces of buttered bread.  This is why it was so easy to take it slow during the day - I knew what was waiting for me at night.  :-)  BTW - I didn't think to take photos until we were well into the pizza, but these are the masterpieces that came out tonight.  I didn't eat the round, but if it was anything like the square, then I have to say that you should RUN, don't walk, to Bruno's and get it!  

    

And then, just because it was weird, I took a little video of how Giuliana decided to eat her final slice of pizza of the night.  I have to be honest, I'm not quite sure I've ever seen anyone eat a pizza this way before!  Enjoy.  :-)

At night, I'm pretty sure I went after those Doritos for a little bit.  nothing crazy, just felt that I should do my civic duty of eating what was in the container.  I did it for the family.  :-)

That's all for today.  Not bad overall.  Sure, I could have cut a slice of pizza out at night and sure I could have skipped the buttered bread, but I saved all my love up for dinner, so I'm good with it!

Weight Loss Update:  I am down 0.2 from yesterday, so really nothing.  A total of 10.4 for the 29 days up to this point.  Still content. Nothing to complain about here.  Hoping for that big August push to come soon, though.  would be amazing to do another 10.4 before September 1. It's doable, if I really work at it.
