Last weekend, I made an English short rib  stew, so that covered a few meals this week. We also had a roasted half chicken Monday, New York steak one evening, a risotto, pecan trout, a salmon cake, and various left-overs.

Also, my wife and neighbor were both sick, so I made a roasted red pepper soup. This time I made a beef stock, and used both onion and leek in the base; a good soup, after all, is all about the base.

As for exercise, we are chipping away at September’s marathon. We have decided to run a half marathon in May as well. This week we covered a couple of short runs (half hour-ish), twice to the dojo, and twice to the gym.

Will post the red pepper soup recipe shortly.
