You and Shelia both get A+ for the amazing pictures you post.

Real life begins where your comfort zone ends
I have never liked peanut butter and have tried to eat it at different times. It is a good source of protein and of course the waste not, want not comes into play. When I end up with something now that I don't like, I find someone who does like it and give it away. If nobody wants it, I just put it in the trash.

Real life begins where your comfort zone ends
Very good question.
1) DH had bought me, by mistake, chocolate pb premier protein. They have been siting in the pantry for ever.
2) when I ordered a sample of a new protein line, in the package there was a bag of pb protein powder.
3) the old mentality of waste not.
4) the idea that eventually I will like pb.
This morning DH asked how I recovered from my pb Icecream and I shuddered. Just the idea of it gives me the ick.

Good morning all and Happy Friday,
Life has been really challenging. I'm overwhelmed, frustrated, and have feelings of insecurity. Rationally, I know how to deal with it all. Subjectively, I'm in the thick of a jungle and only have a Swiss pocket knife. This too shall pass. It sucks right now, though.
QOTD- Never eaten in shower. However, I've drank beers in the shower. 20 years ago, that was my idea of living. Looking back, so horribly ridiculous.
B: Tangerine.
L: shish kebab, pita, salad.
D: Steak or carnitas street tacos, guac, charred knob onions.

G'morning all!
JB - Sorry for all the GLP1 snafus. This medication is now on every body's wish list. I've been hearing left and right people are taking it. I know somebody who took it about 1.5 years ago and is the only person who said it never worked for her. She was on it for 13 weeks, no ins so she was paying out of pocket, and she lost 1 lb. I have no idea how that can happen.
QOTD: nope, I don't need another place to associate with food. But my daughter eats in the shower, she usually showers late at night so she preps a snack plate and takes it with her. First time I saw it I thought it's a one off, but nope, it's a regular thing for her.
Do you guys know what fairy rings are in the redwood forest? "Redwoods often grow in fairy rings, where new trees sprout from the roots of the parent tree.The parent tree's trunk eventually breaks down and returns to the soil, nourishing the next generation." So when you see a cluster of trees like this pic there was a mama tree to begin with but broke down in order for the kid trees to grow up. It always makes me emotional when I see a Fairy ring. Natural light and noir version.
DD is having a blast in Chicago and sent us this pic while going around in South Loop. Chicagoans must be very uninhibited.
My meals yesterday:
- Coffee
- Scrambled eggs w/feta cheese
