Murphy and I walked and walked and walked this afternoon. According to my Garmin, we covered 3.89 miles in 1:22:23.
Murph was such a rock star on our walk today. He even ran with me a number of times during it. We probably would have kept walking if the weather wasn’t so warm. Pugs can sometimes overheat and have trouble breathing in the warm weather, so I didn’t want to push him too much.
Murphy was so pooped when we got home.
But, I think he was sort of proud of himself, too! 😉 Four miles is a long way for a little dog!
Lunch
I tried something new for lunch today: mashed cauliflower and asparagus with garlic and pesto. Mmm!
I had some leftover steamed cauliflower and asparagus in the refrigerator, so I threw them in my food processor with some olive oil, garlic, and store-bought pesto. The end result was delicious! It sort of tasted like cold pesto mashed potatoes.
I threw some wheatberries on top for some added chew.
I also enjoyed a sweet, crisp Gala apple with lunch.
And a Reese’s peanut butter egg from my Easter basket.
Snack
After walking for over an hour with Murphy, I was starving for a snack. As soon as I walked in the door, I made myself a PB & J on whole wheat bread and chowed it down. I didn’t even take a photo! Oops! 😳 But, it tasted really good and satisfied my grumbling stomach.
New Shoes
I received a number of questions and comments about the black and white flats that I wore yesterday, so I snapped an up-close photo of them this afternoon.
They’re American Eagle brand canvas flats from Payless and they cost me just $16! (They were originally $19.99, but I had a coupon for 20% off! 😉 )
I bought these flats, too! 😉

Somehow, I feel like I barely accomplished anything today. What the heck happened to today!?! Let’s hope I can bust out some work before dinner!
