Food and drink are on my mind tonight as it has been a day full of food.

For lunch today we had a company barbie as the CEO of our company was visiting from Germany.

Here I have a couple snags from the barbie on my plate along with some potato and pasta salad.

I also had a can of Solo this morning in the classroom. I have been cheating on my no soda diet while here in Australia as I really like the taste of Solo. There is nothing quite like it back home. Solo has a nice strong lemon flavor.

While here I have also had a can of Lift, which is the competitor to Solo. Hard Hitting Lemon made with Bite. It is definitely a nice drink to have.

I did get back on program a bit at dinner with a nice glass of iced tea. Unfortunately, Australian restaurants really do not know how to make a good iced tea.

For dinner tonight we went to Ribs and Rumps. I had a nice 250g sirloin with some mashed potatoes.

At least I have done some exercise yesterday and today to help burn some of the extra calories.

I had planned on a lot of walking this weekend, but with the temperatures forecast to be 105 degrees this will probably not happen. Still determining how to beat the heat.
