Today was crazy hot. My car was registering 91 degrees before we even took off on the bikes for our 5 hour bike ride through Princess Place. Thankfully I had a great group of kids today who loved the water and were up for the challenge.
(Don't worry nervous Nellies, we hydrate like crazy!)
I was not feeling my three miles this afternoon, so I mixed it up with a 1-mile run (treadmill), 1 mile jog (elliptical), and 1 mile climb (stair-master). I decided mileage is mileage and all that matters is that I am workin' it.
Mr. R requested a burger for dinner tonight and being the wannabe foodie that I am, I created a burger just for him. BBQ, bacon, blue cheese, beer burgers. Yes, they have ALOT going on.
Burger: 1/2# ground beef, 1/4 bottle of beer, 5 drops of worcestershire sauce. (Combine and make 5 slider patties. Place on your George Foreman or grill).
Slider buns: Find small dinner rolls at your grocery store, add tsp. of BBQ sauce to each side of the roll. Top with blue cheese butter, sauteed red onion, and leftover bacon slices.
Blue cheese butter: 2 Tbs of blue cheese, 1/3 Tbs of butter. Mix and spread on your slider bun.
I think I am in LOVE with the Mr. R BBQ BURGER!
I made my final changes to my packing list and all that is left in laundry and the actual act of packing itself. I am bringing the mac with me, so you just might see a few updates while I am gone.
Happy Hump Day Peeps!
Tomorrow afternoon starts my vacation :)
You are too cute with your sliders. I know how much you love them :)
ReplyDeleteYea for three miles down! I think I need to do some similar 21 day activity but it will be abstaining from chips! Damn they are good and I hate that I love them so much. :)
I do love sliders. If only all food could be eaten that way :) I don't think I could survive 21 days without chips! I will stick to running. Good Luck!
ReplyDelete5 hours on the bike? that seems like a REALLY long time, even if you are hydrating...do you stop for a meal?
ReplyDeleteThat burger is some serious stuff!
