Satisfaction

There is something so satisfying about batting a ball against a paddle.

Passing a playground where there’s a person making a practice hit against the wall makes me smile. Thwack.

Pickleball with a side order of ping pong is the current rage. Recreational as well as spectator tennis is always in vogue, too.

In my heyday, I enjoyed applying a forceful racquet to a small ball for the sake of running the court. Occasionally, I had a lunchtime opponent, but generally, this was a solo exertion.

Thwack. Slam.

Elusive or ?

Just gobbled up. Happy National Burger Day (honestly?).

Fries with that?

My cheeseburger didn’t last long enough for me to take its portrait.

This was also the case last week when I ordered the Beyond. As non-meat meat goes, Beyond captures the texture and quality of its beef counterpart. I find that true of the sausage version I get as a breakfast sammy, too.

Today’s cheeseburger was a treat via the BurgerFi app. Completely free and I was treated royally at my location on 2nd & 82nd.

Kitchen curations

The salad is a curated event. Yesterday, I added a baked potato fresh from the heat to goat cheese, cranberries, and pecans infused greens.

Salad days is such a great phrase!

The made-to-order salad bar gives us such great options to create the perfect salad. And a chance to get it just right again tomorrow.

Penguins

In honor of a dear friend, I am asking you to celebrate January 20th, which is Penguin Awareness Day. April 25th,which is World Penguin Day, gives us another chance to toast the varieties of these little wobbling fellows.

The kooky little birds are the Charlie Chaplains (sic) of the cold climes.

Can’t cook?

What food would you say is your specialty?

Living in New York City, we are exposed to such great variety of the edible and delectable.

Different cultures have merged into a melted pot of flavors. Many of them are surprising. Lots of them prove tantalizing.

An inability to produce a decent meal on my part is saved by the phone. “Hi, I am calling for a delivery please.”

National.Holidays

Of all the made-up days of celebration, I managed to miss Sep 29, National Coffee Day. Ironic, really. My coffee trail has been long and winding. Perhaps it’s fitting that it doesn’t end at a Dunkin’ or a Peets.
