I hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable weekend.
I had planned to go to our local Elks Lodge for New Year's Eve Prime Rib and Cracked Crab feast, but I started coming down with a head cold on Friday. Probably for the best, as I could stay on my diet, but unfortunately, lying low for the weekend hasn't made me feel any better, with respect to the cold. If anything, it is getting worse.
I am eating health-fully and hope to start feeling better soon. Here is the last few days of my food log:
