Back on the fitness horse. (It is a proud, diffident horse that throws me off every few years and snorts at me derisively, daring me to try again.)

Starting mornings with an admixture of Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, frozen fruit, oatmeal, chia seeds & whey protein.

I call it Breakfast Spackle.

Do thou but thine; and be not
diffident
Of Wisdom; she deserts thee
not, if thou
Dismiss not her, when most
thou needest her nigh,
By attributing overmuch to
things
Less excellent, as thou
thyself perceivest.

VIII, 562-566
