Back from a lovelier than lovely dinner with Jose and Alex Rybeck, who both were great dining partners.  I had a large Caesar salad and a shrimp cocktail, Jose had the La Scala salad, and Alex had meat loaf.  They shared a huge piece of pumpkin pie - I had not one bite.  I also, for fun, jogged over to the restaurant, which Jose tells me is about three quarters of a mile, and I jogged back, too, so that's good.  Plus a pretty low cal supper.  Plus, I'm going to check out the exercise room right now.  Of course, I stopped at CVS (a block away) and got some chocolate licorice to curb my sweet tooth.
