Which would have been fantastic if we hadn’t ended up eating matzah pizza every night.<\/p>\n
This may explain why, when we visited my folks in New York over April vacation, we overindulged in the carbs (but maybe it doesn’t explain–I’d probably have eaten the same way even without Passover just ending). Our first day there, the kids and I started with bagels from Murray’s. From there, we had a very special lunch at Sugar Sweet Sunshine<\/a>. (No, there’s nothing other than cupcakes, pudding, and cookies on the menu. Why do you ask?) For dessert we went to Economy Candy. And for a snack we had bialys from Kossar’s. Luckily, I made up for it all by… well, not exercising. The kids ran around a lot. We are big playground explorers in New York. But as for me, I meandered. And I ate. And I ate a little more.<\/p>\n (And come someone explain this phenomenon to me? No matter how much sidewalk there is–note the photo below–my son is compelled to walk in the plantings. This happens on the walk home from school when the sides are covered in snow, in the rainy season when there’s mud in the side patches, in gardens where there are fresh fragile plantings, in the streets where there’s plenty of traffic. No matter how much I yell at him to get back on the sidewalk, he gravitates toward the sides. This photo was snapped right after I told him to get out of the newly budding tulips.) So the food intake hasn’t been great. Although I did finally<\/em> get the perfect Peeps. A friend gave me Peeps during Passover, which I put away for after the holiday. And then the Tweedle Twirp gave me some Peeps. The key is opening both so they are stale. While I can’t resist eating the first box before they get properly stale, by the time I get to the next box (the next morning), the Peeps are perfect.<\/p>\n The Duchess and I have sworn we’ll get back to our healthy eating. We keep track of each other. And we will. Right after I get back from New Orleans…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Before every Passover I make a list of dinners I’ll make during the holiday.
