Received the results from our annual blood tests the other day and I’m pleased to report that it all looks good. Blood sugar up a tick, vitamin D levels back to normal levels and, most surprisingly, my formerly high-is cholesterol is down significantly. How to account for the healthy drop? Is it the 17 hour fasting window between dinner and lunch? The light dinners usually compromised of oatmeal, oat milk, fruit and protein powder? The nightly cardio? Or maybe it’s all that dark chocolate? I’m inclined to lean towards the latter.
To celebrate, I dropped by Burger Drops in Liberty Village and sampled their signature Original cheeseburger with griddled onions, American cheese, house pickles, and Drop Sauce on potato roll –
That was one delicious smash burger. I would have gotten two, but I didn’t want to overdo it prior to my physio appointment for my bad shoulder (the Mallozzi’s have notoriously bad shoulders). Once my appointment was over however….
I stopped again and picked up their other burger offering, the American, with ketchup, fresh diced onions, lettuce, American Cheese, and Drop Sauce served on a potato roll. I also added jalapeño relish. Overall, both great burgers but I found the addition of the lettuce made a world of different. As Akemi put it: “Very refreshing!”
Any other smash burger fans out there?
The highlight of my day was an unexpected star sighting! Akemi and I were walking downtown when we spotted a celebrity – and one of my very favorite actors Roger Cross – who was kind enough to stop for a photo op…
He was terrific in that Dark Matter spaceship series. Check it out!
Today’s Yes/No…
Trick question. Of course it’s a Yes.
