Chowdah Begone!

Last week in this space, I reported that I had actually gained 3lbs, which I am fully attributing to all the New England Clam Chowder I consumed over Memorial Day weekend while we were up at the Cape.

I am happy to report that this week I am down 3.8lbs, which is my "chowder weight" plus a little extra.

I can't find anything Scrabble-related that weighs 3.8 lbs, so I'm going to cheat a little this week and use something from the "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought..." feature on Amazon, namely:


All hail the cult! (And clam chowder. Believe me, it was worth the temporary setback.When my cult leader asked me what I did differently this week to rack up such a big loss, I simply replied, "I didn't eat clam chowder." )
