Anyone Got a Stretcher Weekend Recap

Howdy y'all!  Does everyone else remember going back to school around this time when you were a kid?  These days?  They've been in school for 2 weeks already!!  A friend of ours has a third grader and posted the obligatory list o' facts pic their first day of school two weeks ago and I said I was so glad they didn't send us back that early and he heartily agreed! Saturday was off to a low key start but waiting for a small weight rack to replace the mondo one we had down there.  They were dragging their feet so I watered the plants front and back and we went out for a little bit then drove through the old hood.  We drove past my high school besties house as well as ours.  This is the second time we've gone there to reminisce and within 30-60 seconds people roll up on us like they notified the po po of the new car in the court.  Lord forbid I look at my childhood apartment for a few minutes so we left since it didn't feel safe.  There's nothing...

Yay or Nay?



Every year, just in time for you to start getting seasonal yearnings for more fruits and veggies, they release the "dirty dozen" list of produce that has the most pesticides.  While I know organic produce still uses some deterrents, I do try to buy organic when possible for produce and as much as possible for everything else too.  From eggs to meat to baking ingredients. 

So, that got me wondering...

Do you buy organic?  If not, do you wash your produce with a solution or run it under water and hope for the best?

  1. I try to get the organic green lettuce for my salad and always wash it really well, with at least 2 good rinses and soaks, in the salad spinner. Even some of the pre-washed lettuce I will put an extra rinse on myself because I don't trust machines to do that properly.

  2. Regular produce with a water rinse. I'm a loner Dottie, a rebel.

  3. Generally, I'm too cheap to buy organic. So many of my fruits and veggies need to be imported and by the time you put on the premium for organic (if it is available) I can't justify the expense. And when it comes to washing, I'm a run it under the water and hope for the best kind of girl. A little dirt can do you good. :)

  4. It depends on the fruit if I buy organic or not. I rinse everything anyway... but then wonder what's in the water. LOL
