This is a way of making myself write something coherent and grammatically correct almost every day. I'm opinionated and need an outlet. I'm also prone to flights of fancy. Thanks for stopping by. |
| We've started buying from a local farm to supplement our home grown vegetables. Our neighbor gets the delivery, so we just pay her. Organic vegetables--their selection. Last week included tomatoes, corn, peaches, potatoes, one onion, peppers, cucumbers, yellow squash, and zucchini. We grow peppers, tomatoes, zucchini, and summer squash ourselves. But we can use the extra. I think my dad uses non-organic pesticide. So these will at least be chemical free. The cucumbers look great. I don't eat them, but I fix them for Dad and our guests. He loves his corn, which I get sick of week after week. So he won't need to get so much from the store. Range free eggs are available for a steep price. I passed on those. I read today that basil keeps mosquitoes away. I tend to the basil daily out back, but I'm scratching huge mosquito whelps tonight. I bought some cilantro and made salsa from the tomatoes and onion, with garlic, EVO, and lemon juice. (I was out of lime juice.) We had our own zucchini for supper. I want to go meatless for a few weeks to test the theories I've read. You have to substitute in a lot of vegetables, not fruit. Fish and shellfish are okay, so are eggs. The idea is to reset your digestion and your blood sugar metabolism. So I went shopping for salmon today. Every cold water or wild caught fish that store had in the seafood department and meat department came from China. Consumers Digest warns against all fish from Asia. North Pacific salmon only. So I didn't buy any. I might go back to bacon before the three weeks are up. |
