There ought to be a law against going to work the day after the 4th any holiday.
At least I have yesterday’s appearance on the Food Buzz Top 9 to boost me this morning!
That hummus really was good.
Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who buzzed me and WELCOME to new visitors!

Yesterday’s Peachtree Road Race was really good.
I ran the world’s largest 10K in 51:08. A new PR!
A time under 50 mins would have been awesome, but I can’t complain about anything sub-55. And I finished in plenty of time to cheer on a lot of the finishers. 
Post-race I met up with some good friends and enjoyed brunch their company. Brunch was terrible – they ran out of EGGS, which meant I didn’t get to eat much of anything until 4 hours after finishing the race.
Fine if you run out of food, but at least tell me so I can order something different. Like the spine my stomach was eating.
We made up for it in beverages fun at the next location.
The sign didn’t lie – it was the bar we were looking for.
Diesel (870 North Highland Avenue Northeast, Atlanta, 404-815-1820) provided a knowledgable bartender and possibly the best grilled cheese I’ve ever had.
The D’Yer Mak’Er consisted of mozzarella, roasted tomato goat cheese, swiss, cheddar & bacon on rye. The rye made the sandwich… YUM.
How about some icing on the grilled cheese cake? Watermelon beer.
Our awesome bartender recommended this Hell or High Watermelon Beer by 21st Amendment after I requested something with flavor, but light. Not too much alcohol content (who really needs an 11% alc beer?). Not too sweet.
It hit the spot. I thought the watermelon would make it too sweet for me, but it was much lighter than many of the “berry” flavored beers out there.
The watermelon flavoring was more “real” than candied/artificial. It is a wheat beer, but remains light and crisp Nice amount of bubble. Nothing overly complex, but a refreshing beer after a long day.

It rained last night so no fire works for me… the 9.5 hours of sleep I got instead was incredible.
How was your weekend? Did you get to enjoy a race and/or fireworks?
