What I'm Reading This Week #35

Howdy do and happy last Friday of August!  I hope you had a good week and if your weather was like ours, it was FINALLY under 93 degrees.  Don't get me wrong, I know sweater weather isn't here but it was nice to not have the AC working overtime (set to 76) starting at 11am every day!   It was nice to not walk out to water the garden and walk into a wall of humidity so I will take what I can get.    Speaking of which: With this 3" San Marzano , I shall be able to make enough sauce to cover 7.3 spaghetti noodles. 😒 Now let's get to: How to Stock Your Pantry for Quick & Easy Meals in Minutes   (Ooh, I need to crockpot some black beans for some sweet potato black bean burritos.)

    Wow! Do you ever get points for presentation! That looks a lot more interesting than what I had for breakfast and lunch (dinner is still waiting for me). My homemade oatmeal with apple, pear, walnuts and a sprinkling of lt brown sugar was tasty but not as pretty as your bfast! The tuna salad and cantaloupe I had for lunch was just in a plain container. What dip are you using for the raw veggies? Anyway, it looks delicious!

    It all looks wonderful. I haven't tried the nutella on a banana yet, but it always looks good in the picture. I am still doing yogurt as my mid morning snack...I keep thinking it helps me somehow...

    Arlene, I just use my favorite french onion dip. Anything made with a mix has more sodium than I want to eat.

    Your pictures are so pretty. My food never looks like this. It may be tasty, but a blindfold is often not a bad idea.

    Hi Mrs! This is my first time here & I love your site and your attitude! I feel like we are friends even though we've never met. I have about 150 pounds to lose and have just started blogging. I've been vegetarian for about 3 years, so the blog is about my weight loss journey and veg recipes. Please check it out and give me your feedback? It's really "fugly" right now, but I'm working on making it pretty... Yours is a great inspiration - thank you!
