What a wonderful day. The weather around the island
was sunny & breezy. Typical spring. I overdid the calories today, the first
day of a long holiday weekend – but I don’t feel a bit bad about that. Here’s
how I spent day 1.
I was up and out by 11am heading to Patchogue for a 12 noon big screen viewing of “Casablanca”. This is one of my all-time favorite ‘classic’ films that I’ve only ever watched on TV. It was a real treat (in honor of the 70th anniversary of the film) to see it in a theatre. It is playing all over the country in theatres so if you love the film check your local papers for an event near you. This particular theatre’s major patron is Isabella Rossellini, daughter of Ingrid Bergman, the star of Casablanca. Ms. Rossellini stopped by the theatre at the end of the movie for a scheduled Q&A. She was charming, intelligent and informative. She stayed for 45 minutes, spoke at length about her Mama and Papa, sisters and brother. It was lovely.
So, up until that point I had only consumed 760
calories, but we went to a surf & turf on the harbor (they had an old time
river boat attached to the restaurant providing outdoor seating). So all
totaled I ended today with 2600 calories. Not horrible all things considered. Afterwards
we went walking (shopping). Stretched my legs which I needed after sitting in
the theatre so long my butt hurt. Now I’m home having some Organic Mixed greens
and coffee.
I have a Memorial Day party to go to tomorrow
evening but I plan to do much better.
