Bizi,

When I was a kid, we raised chickens and other farm animals.

Our chickens were omnivores: They ate grubs, insects, worms, snakes, frogs,. . . along with the pellets from the farm feed store. They liked corn that we bought too.

After thinking about this too much while I was trying to write this post, I almost
decided to stop eating. It is hard to figure out what to buy and what to prepare.

Bizi, just a quick note to say that I really admire you - eating in a healthy and sustainable way is something I try to do as well.

"My life is very rich. I hope I don't take it for granted. [...] I send a small amount each month to the second harvest(food bank)"
I could have written those things. This is not about me but I give as much money as I can to organisations who support people who need help.

:hug:

I hate the "Cops" episode of the X-Files.

oh mari, I am sorry if my talk about my food choices upset you.
I was afraid that they used to feed chicken other chicken parts...yuck! I guess I should eat pasture raised chickens....sigh

2 1/2 beers was too much last night, could not sleep...waiting for the coffee to be brewed.

I really enjoy reading your updates.

Today was a lazy day.
After our lunch the usual: 3 eggs scrambled with spinach and black bean salsa and a side of brocolli. today they had shrimp and artichoke soup so I splurged and had a cup. Boy was that good!
Decided to go back to kohls since I had a coupon and a left over gift card.
It took me hours to find a pair of boots that fit and that I liked and on sale etc. but I found them! I also bought some black leggings and some purple socks to wear with my boots that matches the sweater that I bought last weekend. I used up all of my gift cards from last year....and I have one new outfit. How do people have the time to shop and how can they afford to shop????
(thanks again mom for the gift card!)
I went to whole foods and had some beers, a really good coffee milk stout, yummy! I felt social and struck up a conversation with a guy at the bar. Turns out he is a deputy sheriff. He has been in the military, served in 2 wars, tired of law enforcement And now wants to be a cook. lol
Came home and cooked pork chops with an indian spice-picle masala. It is very flavorful. Steamed mixed veggies and had half an avocado. Simple like usual. Had a dark chocolate truffle delicious! I usually eat a piece of chocolate every day.
We took a 2 mile walk around the neighborhood. I wore a light jacket but took it off before we got home because i got hot from walking.
Jeff was in shorts. ha!
He was busy today taking down all of the halloween decorations and putting them up in the attic.
I hope that I sleep better tonight after the walk.
thank you for reading.

Bizi,

I did not mean anything. I was only thinking aloud about raising chickens and how most of the labels on our eggs are confusing.

Eat the eggs that you have been eating. They are fine.

I often wonder how some women can afford to buy all these outfits that have multiple matchy-match pieces to them. It must be so expensive! Give me a pair of jeans and a tee shirt (long-sleeved) any day!

The gentleman you struck up a conversation with sounds very interesting, great kind of guy. I'll miss that part about bars.

I think it's great you reward yourself with a piece of chocolate every day. I wouldn't be able to stop at one though :)

I wear short sleeve v neck tee shirts lol

lol.

Almost all of my tee shirts are v-neck, too. My sister and friends were always trying to get me to buy crew necks. I had to switch to long sleeves for obvious reasons, though.
