I’ve got my refried beans – 1 pound cans for my weight training. And I’m just about ready to do my on-the-1/2-hour hallway-walk.p I wish they taught yoga-ish classes, that sounds much more like something I’d do than actual yoga.
Will you be able to join the E4T Exercise Blog tonight?

OK, that wasn’t so hard. At least this time. I did 5 minutes walking & 5 minutes pumping refried beans.
I will be periodically and rather leisurely stretching myself, and performing my regular pill to mouth presses.
And maybe we could talk about music to exercise by. Not that I have any ideas for myself.
Yoga-ish classe– lol
Hi katieb, Duct, kansas — I feel so bad, and don’t want my negative energy to infect anyone here, but I blew off yoga tonight and ate hershey chocolate kisses for dinner. :/
I blame it on work stress (but I did eat my snack, lunch, and drank my water so the day isn’t totally off).
Hi, Olivia — Are you interested in walking up and down your hallway for a while? Could you swing some canned vegetables also?
olivia! I am surprised at you! Hershey’s Kisses indeed.
Did no one ever teach you that Chocolate Comes from Switzerland?
Next time please make sure that you are eating the Lindt 85% bar. Yes, 85% refers to chocolate cohtent. Barely sweet, it is as dark as you can get unless you want it really bitter, and purer than most bitter you can buy, therefore better for you.
Now give away whatever is left of that vile Hershey crap to people who don’t know any better, because you are no longer one of them, as you have been Informed.
I thought chocolate came from South America?
I could do the stairs — I’ll go down to the basement, then upstairs and I’ll do it 3x in a row. At the next whistle (watching hockey game).
{{Olivia}} You’ll feel much better after you do that. And I’ll remind you in an hour too, if you’d like to do it again then.
Duct — the worse thing about what I did is that I know better: I hate hershey chocolate!!! Kisses most of all. They are vile little bundles. But, my sil left a pkg in the cupboard when they were visiting last month (yes — month old!) and I couldn’t stop myself. I should have thrown them out. I even refused to eat the hershey kisses a co-worker brought in one day b/c I hate them so. I’m so ashamed …
And, yes I love lindt chocolate. And dark chocolate best of all.
PS. No whistle yet.
okay — I did it! Some success for the night.

Amazing Race — or Boston Legal?
kbird you are correct. For instance, the best unsweetened chocolate, Luker Brand, comes from Colombia.
But remember that in the Americas, processing it and sweetening it and adding milk to it was never really much of an activity, and to this day chocolate (unsweetened) is the principal ingredient in mole, an indigenous dish thousands of years old. It was when the Yerpeens invaded, and took some back to Yerp, that they began doing all that sweetening and milk adding with chocolate. And especially in Switzerland, they began doing it very well.
Today of course, there are all kinds of brands of sweetened chocolate made in the Americas, frequently enhanced with cinnamon, ground almonds and grainy sugar, or any combination of the three, and I do not despise any of them, however Switzerland remains king of the processed sweet stuff.
Luker Brand. I’ll keep my eye out for it.
Does anyone want to join me in one last set? Weights or walk? Or both?
Stretch. I wonder if it would count if I made burritos and lifted those…
I’m going to do one last set — and on my way up I will go to bed. So, good night katie, Duct. Sleep well and sweet dreams to you both. Thanks for the encouraging words tonight!
Goodnight Olivia — it was fun exercising with you! Ductape, and 1 and 2 and 3 . . . streeeeeetch
I have stretched. And sweet dreams to you both
