WOW what a selection of ready to go veggies. We don’t have near that many. We don’t have Publix, Whole Foods or Earth Fare. Safeway is the only big chain store. We have a Costco and Trader Joe’s and Sprouts. The rest are California based or locally owned.

Ive never seen broccoli, cauliflower and carrot mix, sliced pepper. Or zucchini or sliced mushrooms which I consider a blessing. Red taters is a good 💡 idea. See you can cook and eat normal stuff. And isn’t it better than taking the life of a Innocent duckie 🦆 one of God’s most beautiful creatures and then living with such guilt. I’ll and that for you. Of course it is. I know you probably weren’t thinking clearly at the time and only did it in a moment of weakness.
Might be worth moving to Florida for the grocery stores. Got any houses for sale on your street? With that silver tongue of yours you might even be able to talk me into coming over for lunch and dinner every day. But don’t count on me for New Years Dinner, Linda @lioness is expecting me for pork and sauerkraut.
I’m absolutely amazed that you didn’t say anything unthinkable but I’m shaking in my boots that you did something unthinkable at the Japanese restaurant.
I am curious what you had. I hope you had some vile ocean scavenging bottom feeding sea creature and not what I’m thinking.
I usually have Katsu or Vegetable Tempura. You know, normal food!!!

Hello,
There are 3 homes for sale in my subdivision but they are too large for one person. We built our home here on the last available piece of property 14 years ago. I had my house built behind the garage across the breezeway from my daughter, son in law and 2 of my grandchildren. My daughter is a Nurse Practitioner and son in law a sheriffs dept captain. My daughter is essentially my doctor, has her own practice and I do work for her at home. It’s an ideal situation for someone my age and I know how lucky I am to have the family I do. My son and daughter in law , 2 grandsons live near Orlando and my daughter’s son moved there about a month ago. It’s about 2.5 hr drive. Katie, her daughter will be attending school in NJ in a few weeks. I will miss her....been with them since she was born and daughter was in grad school.

You asked ...so what I had at the Japanese restaurant was salmon, sushi rice, and a mashed dish that I still don’t know what it was but it was great. Some miso soup and a house salad with carrots and ginger dressing. The thing about the salmon was , I have never been asked if I want it medium or rare. This is cooked salmon which I have only ordered at other type restaurants. I went with the medium, for all of you who love salmon, and it was spectacular. I would hesitate to cook it that way myself it I highly recommend it that way. I sampled the sushi my grandson had...top notch and the noddle bowl my other grandson had...again speculated.

Going back over to Orlando again tonight for the weekend and we are eating at a local Italian restaurant tomorrow.
I will regale you with what you are missing.

We have Sprouts and Trader Joe’s here too (TJ not near me though). I buy my veggies and bulk items at Sprouts cuz they’re cheaper, fresher and they have more organic produce. Publix is the best supermarket in FL....it’s a pleasure to shop there and you can get InstaCart.....shop online and have delivered to home...a fee of course.

Raining so much here lately but it has cooled things down. See some fish floating in the water...may go catch one...😏

Regards from Rainy FL Mary
