Q&A and New Year Surprises

The new year is upon us and looking back, I had quite the adventures getting to where I am today. I hope you enjoyed following me through life's twists and turns and will continue to do so next

I said before that I was going to answer all of the questions you had, so here goes.

Q:  Is Worcestershire sauce really vegan? I think there is something really weird like anchovies somewhere down the line in the ingredients. 

A: Well, it looks like I made a Freudian slip while I was on my diet because it does actually have anchovies in it. OOOPS!

Q: What's the most popular meal at Steak-n-Shake?  What meal do you recommend? 

A: The most popular would be the original double cheese.  I would recommend either the Frito chilli cheese burger or the western BBQ.  Both are excellent choices. 

Q: What's one thing you know now that you couldn't have known when you first began your program? What has most taken you by surprise? 

A: How much time and effort goes into preparation for a horse to race just two minutes. The thing that has most taken me by surprise is how hard a thoroughbred can pull.


Here are the exciting surprises! ENJOY!

Surprise 2: 

I was recently featured in a racing enthusiast's blog.  Here is the excerpt:

"Nineteen year old Jesse Sauder, a first semester N.A.R.A. student is a prime example of dedication you will find at the school.  He was not able to ride that morning due to a car accident earlier this year.  In the accident, he suffered life threatening injuries in which he fractured his C1, C2 vertebrae,
which typically results in being paralyzed.  His surgery on June 14^th   left him in a halo brace for three months.  The determined Sauder refused to miss his scheduled admissions interview with McCarron only one short week following his surgery."

I hope you all have a fantastic new year and I will be looking forward to sharing my experiences in 2012.
