What Arbeit Eats
I take some flak because my diet is . . . different. (How many apples do you eat a day? Dude, that cannot be good for you.) So I decided to post meals I enjoy. Because I have no great love for cooking by myself, for myself, all suggestions will be quick and easy to make. Most important, though, I eat healthy.
Speedy Spinach Salad
1 bag spinach
1 red pepper
1 avocado
6-7 crimini mushrooms
1 pint cherry tomatoes
1/3 lb sunflower seeds (raw, hulled)
Mustard
Just wash, chop, mix and stir. This salad has everything. The mustard is the key -- salad dressing is not only expensive but also not great for you. Mustard (my mustard at least) has nothing but nutrients and some sodium. Zero empty calories. If you need carbohydrates too, enjoy your greens with a fresh local organic whole grain loaf. Like Wonder Bread.
NB This salad has no wheat and no dairy. (Wonder Bread has wheat. Allegedly.)
Till next time, when I post about my favorite fast lunch!

The Great White Hill
How am I training for NYC and Boston without the Newton Hills? Good question, glad you asked. Although I no longer have the privilege of running up Heartbreak every day (which truly is a privilege), I do have a new challenge: the Great White Hill.
No, the GWH is not as famous as Heartbreak. (Fine, the GWH is not famous at all. In fact, I bestowed on the hill that noble moniker. Why are you laughing?)
Everyone else calls the hill 13th Street between Arkansas and Colorado. But look closer at the cross streets (from south to north -- bottom to top):
Emerson
Farragut
Gallatin
Hamilton
Ingraham
Jefferson
Kennedy
Longfellow
Madison
Q.E.D. I present the Great White Hill.
Visit and we will conquer these luminaries together.
