Spicy Carrot and Shrimp with Cucumber Salad...yummmmmm

Last Night, I made Spicy Carrot and Shrimp with Cucumber Salad. This was sooo yummy!

Phill made the croutons (soooo good!) using the Rye and Cheddar Bread we bought at the Farmers'  Market last weekend and some spices.  And then I made the rest, which included: carrots, shrimp, avocado, cilantro, cucumber salad, and cayenne pepper.  

Phill and I have made it a goal to cook more, and we've been doing a pretty good job of it!!  I usually enjoying cooking, but there are times life just catches up and we don't have time for it!

Before Dinner last night, Phill and I ran for 10 minutes and then walked home, totalling 2 miles.  I also walked 1.7 miles to/from CalTrain and Bus stops.  My quad and knee issues seemed to be resolved, but I am going to be cautious.

I also performed core work (4 x 10 push ups, 10 minutes of various ab exercises, 20 Superman’s, and a few sets of various other arm exercises) and stretched and rolled. I'm happy to report I was able to do the Pilates Roll Up 10 times with ease.  A few months ago, I couldn't do one without my legs flying up into the air!


Today - I will run another 10 minutes and then perform various leg and core exercises.

Sounds like some major progress (with the core work). I hope you enjoy the short run tonight. It sounds like a relaxing jaunt.
