I do not want you to think I am a fussy eater. \u00a0I did like the lasagna! \u00a0It was tasty. \u00a0It just was not very filling is all. \u00a0They also had lettuce salad which I cannot eat (I have difficulty digesting lettuce). \u00a0So, I had a slice of lasagna and an itty bitty bit of lettuce.<\/p>\n<p>There were cookies everywhere!!! \u00a0They were for later, though.<\/p>\n<p>Dessert was a cupcake. \u00a0It was not a mini cupcake nor was it a full size cupcake. \u00a0It was, for lack of a better term, a teenage cupcake. \u00a0Somewhere in the middle of mini and full size. \u00a0It was great! \u00a0It was dutch chocolate with cream cheese(?) frosting. \u00a0It had two (real) mint leaves and three small sugared cranberries on top for decoration. \u00a0Can you say &#8220;Yum?&#8221; \u00a0I could have eaten a half dozen, at least!<\/p>\n<p>After the lunch, we had a mini Christmas program. After the program, people just took a few zip lock bag of cookies and left! \u00a0We did not even get to eat the cookies! \u00a0My husband had requested sugar cookies (not a fan), so I grabbed him a bag of sugar cookies, socialized a little bit and came home. \u00a0Hungry.<\/p>\n<p>We had an early dinner tonight. \u00a0I am not hungry any more \u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/?attachment_id=2089\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2089\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2089\" alt=\"securedownload\" src=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/securedownload.jpg\" width=\"1632\" height=\"1224\" srcset=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/securedownload.jpg 1632w, http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/securedownload-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/securedownload-1024x768.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/securedownload-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1632px) 100vw, 1632px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s Run: \u00a04.30 miles This is my &#8220;easy&#8221; week of training so the mileage will be a bit lower than what you have become accustomed to seeing. \u00a0My feet and legs are welcoming this &#8220;easy&#8221; week! \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\ud83d\ude42 Today I went to a Luncheon\/Cookie Exchange. \u00a0Oh boy. \u00a0That was a dangerous place for [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[6,8,3],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2088"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2088"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2088\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2090,"href":"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2088\/revisions\/2090"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2088"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2088"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2088"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
