Tonight, I made a salad of mixed baby greens (...from a package, yes...), carrot bits, and crumbled blue cheese. The latter may be calorie-dense and fat-dense, but just a little of it adds a lot of taste, and it's worth having to take a pill for it. Yum. I admit I was appalled at the nutritional information. Not because of the calorie density, nor because of the fat, both of which I'd expected. Because for some reason their chosen serving size was 1 ounce. I...am trying very hard not to imagine anything that was a single serving that included a full ounce of blue cheese. There is such a thing as too much of a good thing. The word, I believe, is "overkill".

I took a soothing, relaxing bath today with a new bath bomb. Only it wasn't so very soothing, because this particular one gives me a headache. Oops. Now I know one to avoid! I am airing out the master bath and bedroom so that I won't have to sleep in a scent that gives me a headache, at least. (I'm not sure what it is about it that inspired the headache - the predominant scent is lemon, and lemon's usually fine for me, but there must be something else in there that's problematic. Oh, well.) I may have to take a shower tonight, both to get the rest of it off me, and because it appears to have moisturized my hair into limp oblivion. Oops. I should have showered to wash it separately anyway, I guess.

I went to the Japanese Garden earlier today and wandered around. It was lovely. I was there less than an hour, but I enjoyed the walk. (And I got some exercise, because I didn't want to wait for the shuttle to actually go, even though it was running. Go, me! That shuttle is so good for my exercise levels anyway. It's open-sided and the road has some drop-offs. Very unnerving to me, even tho' it's safe.)

The salad sounds delicious! Blue cheese is one of my few dairy indulgences, and you're right, a little goes a long way!

Pics from the garden? Or is it too early?
