Too Much Apple Crisp

B, Edles and I went to the local casual restaurant for breakfast, then took a nice walk up the East River in the rain. B had a few friends come over in the afternoon to hang out, and I spent part of the morning making an apple crisp.

Gonna continue with the fruit challenge after tomorrow, just don't have the mental energy this weekend.

BREAKFAST: 9am, blueberry pancakes, home fries, bacon, water, 1.25 bowl, hunger 4/5

LUNCH: 1pm, leftover sauteed broc and spinach over vegan morel risotto, 1 bowl, hunger 4/5

PM SNACK 2-6pm, too much apple crisp, a small pumpkin cupcake, 1/2 glass of white wine, roasted almonds, 1.25 bowl, hunger 4/5
Apple crisp is simply sliced peeled apples tossed with a bit of brown sugar, salt and lemon juice, and topped with a concoction of flour, sugar, cinnamon and butter, baked until soft on bottom and crisp on top. I was going to serve with ice cream, but a certain wife of mine who shall remain nameless stored the freezer barrel in the cupboard instead of the freezer, so I put a bunch of the ice cream batter (really, a Cream Anglais) and put it into a squeezy bottle to jazz up the squared off crisp. From something as assed-out as melted ice cream to something as elegant as a few swirls of Cream Anglais!

DINNER: 8pm, small amount of Chinese food, .75 bowl, hunger 4/5
Ordered a brick, but ate only a bit, the rest saved for after my ride tomorrow.
