Day 10 - Family Reunion

My Aunt Dorothy passed away last Friday night.  I barely knew her.  I think I saw her maybe 4-6 times in my life including my wedding and my first daughter's baby shower.  I knew she had a bunch of kids.  Turns out the exact number is 6.  6 kids, 13 grandkids, and 7 great grandkids.  Most of whom I've never met.  I met a lot of them today!  It's weird realizing you're related to a lot of people you never even knew existed.  It's nice meeting them though.  And finding out what a good person and a caring mother/grandmother your Aunt was.

Enough sadness though.  On to food!  Always a happy topic. :)

Breakfast is shown below.  For lunch I had barbecue pork with steamed broccoli, carrots and onions.  After the funeral we were hungry so we stopped at Mooyah and I had a double patty ice burger with bacon, tomatoes and pickles.  Would have been better with cheese but not today!  I also had a side of sweet potato fries.
I picked up a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken on the way home for dinner as well as a bag of baby carrots to steam.  When I got home however, I found Darren preparing the grill to cook STEAK!!!!

So dinner was a mixture of chicken and steak with baby carrots on the side, drowned in butter.  They were SOOOO GOOOD!!!!

While I didn't make it to the gym today, I did teach tap tonight, and tried to throw some very aerobic moves in there that I had to demonstrate.  That counts as a mini-workout, right?
