What color did you pick out for the house?

I went to Denver this summer to stay with my brother and his family. They had just painted the inside of their home "Revere Pewter", it's a bright greyish color. I copied him and did the exact same thing, the trim is "Glacier White." I had a red accent wall for 18 years that made me feel claustrophobic...it's gone now!!!

QOTD: ginger or cloves...or cardamom...no wait nutmeg. I like spices :) pfeffernusse is my most favorite cookie taste. I also like those spices in tea or coffee.

my mood is really crappy. My meds were brought back to the previous dosage and i'm still feeling down and having rapidly cycling mood swings. Not constantly but i'm feeling very down. My blood work came back normal so i'm Hoping to hear something in the next few days about the med to try for BED. I had to take our three a/c units out Friday. My back had been having issues already but now it's rather ick. Haven't been able to do much with it. Getting walks in but that's it. Eating...eck...not great. Sorry for the whine fest.

B:protein shake

L: cauliflower stuffing and butternut & acorn squash soup. 1tbs PB

D:fish fillet, more stuffing, 1/2 cup yogurt 1 tbs powdered almond butter.

S:coffee, 2 saltine crackers, 1 oz cheddar

Good wishes headed your way! I hope you feel better very soon!

Pfeffernusse? That's a new one for me, but once I googled it I know exactly the flavor you're talking about. I used to buy those little cookies, I love the flavor.

I was too busy to post yesterday, but wanted to answer QOTD! I must be the most boring person EVER because it is vanilla. Second place are other subtle flavors like coconut and almond.
