      What’s that suspicious yellow powder?

      Whey protein, one scoop = 20 grams. Once you mix it all together is actually OK.

      I thought it might be a protein powder. Blue berries + yogurt + protein powder is the combo I am assuming? Actually, that looks pretty good. One of my favorite snacks used to be wheat germ on a scoop of cantaloupe. Really. It’s actually pretty good – the slight nuttiness of the wheat germ against the cool blandness of the cantaloupe.

      Oh no: from shoes of the Chicago Boyz to “recipes” of the Chicago Boyz! And, I’m in the age cohort where I’m into the back pages of Health Magazine. The horror.

      Madhu: I’m in even more terrible cohort: I check out the back page of T&C magazine; yes, where they print horoscopes. Not once in the past year they guessed right…but I still read – and laugh.

      Whey protein – how profoundly sad.

      Onparkstreet – correct on the ingredients. Every summer I vacation in Michigan and we bring back around 80 pounds of blueberries and freeze them for enjoyment all winter long. It is a pretty tasty mix. To boot, the whey protein powder is banana flavored.

      Tatyana – not sad, good for me! With all the training I do, I need the protein boost and this is a convenient way for me to get it without too many calories.

      Dan, I’m saying it a mom of ex-track-teamster. Who used to consume protein powder by the gallon. *shudder*
      He’s still telling me stories about some of his gym friends and their powder-diets (plus variable additives… also mostly chemical in nature). *double shudder*.

      And what’s wrong with calories?

      And what’s the point of training and toning your muscles and achieving incredible strength if you’re not using this apparatus for anything?

      “And what’s the point of training and toning your muscles and achieving incredible strength if you’re not using this apparatus for anything?” You should have seen my last half marathon time or the fighters that I help train.

      Sporty bleg: anyone know anything about Chicago crew or rowing? For beginner types? Really beginner types?

      Onparkstreet – that is a great sport, one which I had time to get into. Talk about a workout.

      Dan: but what is the purpose of running in marathon? Nobody delivers messages this way anymore, do they?

      And fighters…cue Indiana Jones episode, with the gun vs. sword. Fighting is a bit moire useful than running, but only a bit.

      Tatyana – the purpose is the journey.

      god help me, at first glance I thought there was a dead mangled chick in the bowl.

      Tyouth – I have seen some Asian cultures eat half formed chicken embryos in the egg. Can’t remember what they are called.

      Ah it came to me, balut.
