Apparently cold, wet, rainy days are also a favorite for many others to
voyage to the hot room. Especially in the CP. I went to class last
night at 4:30 anticipating a few people here and there and it was
packed. Actually had to take class in the front row. I usually prefer
the second row...Not too close to the mirror but close enough to focus
on myself and locking the knee. I started off in the second row when I
first arrived but when I sat up and noticed how many people had come in
to the hotroom since I had. I offered to move up in the front row so the
two newbies behind me could have a little bit of space. It was nowhere
near as crowded as 'Free Day of Yoga' back in September when we
practiced Sardine-asanas but moving up a row aleviated some scrunching.
The best part about Cold, Wet, Rainy Days in a Yoga Room with a lot of
people...the more people, the more humidity - the juicier the room, the
more I sweat and the better I feel!
In other news I finally made my roasted beet and quinoa salad last
night. In Dustin's words, "What was I doing in my life before I ate this
salad?" Yea, its THAT good. I adapted the recipe with Quinoa instead of
Farro as I had a package of Quinoa on hand. I'm sure its awesome either
way but we will be making this again, as soon as I get some more
Farmhouse Delivery beets. YUM! Much like Radishes, Farmhouse Delivery
has introduced and re-introduced me to some of my new favorite foods and
recipes. I never ate a Beet (correction Roasted Beet) before last
night. In my mind Beets always came in a jar full of purpley pink
pickleyness. Highly recommend this recipe!
On Saturday night when I had roasted the beets for the salad I had to
use the beet greens instead of throwing them away. Edible and quite
delectable, beet greens are delicious and healthy. I chopped them up and
threw them in a saute pan with some bacon. Naturally everything is
better with bacon. While those were cooking up I also was roasting a
spaghetti squash and could not help but think how delicious some Pasta
Carbonara would be with my beet greens and spaghetti squash. Mixed up
some of the egg and parmesean mixture and voila. Ready made, healthy,
low carb meal that the entire family enjoyed. Every morsel! Don't ask me
about my recipe. It just happened and it was delicious.
My list for next years garden: Radishes, Beets, Spaghetti Squash
