Julia,
I'm so glad your stuffed zucchini was a hit. The good thing about them is you can stuff them with anything....fish, shrimp, sausage, onions and mushrooms, etc. Strawberries are a great way to spend those extra calories....and shortcake can be low calorie....
Hi Ladies,
I'm getting on here late today. I went to see my niece's new house she just bought. It was small but nice. I also got to see my other niece from Virginia and my nephew and great niece.i had a fun day. I had the same meal as the last two days except I had a doughnut at my niece's and I stopped and got a ice cream cone. Tomorrow I'll be back on track.
Everyone have a good night.

Hello Jeannie and OFF,
I am having a better day, so far. I realize that I tend to do better avoiding sugar in the summer, because of the availability of fresh fruit. I went to the farm yesterday, and picked up 12 quarts of strawberries, cleaned them, and put most of them in freezer bags in the freezer. No, I did not actually pick the strawberries. The farm offers both u-pick, or we pick. If they have them Monday, I'll go back and get more.
I love practically every summer fruit. Peaches, berries, cherries, watermelon. Also, fresh veggies. I need to clean out my freezer, to make room for more, if they're available.
Hugs,
Trish

Hi Jeannie and those to come,
I am having a restful day too. I have my tutoring session in two hours. I enjoy doing that.
I prepared the stuffed zucchini yesterday Jeannie...big hit. I think I have too much, but maybe not.
Breakfast was my protein drink, lunch a quarter of a ham sandwich, dinner will be pork chop and Cole slaw with apples. I am making strawberry shortcake so it will be a splurge.
Hope your day is wonderful.
Julia
Ladies,
I get my babies back today and I have to admit, I missed the little toots.
It is cloudy and looks like we may get a little rain today. I sure hope so...it will cool us down a bit.
Well, today's breakfast was free range from my daughter's farm eggs with picante sauce and some nutritional yeast served ala burrito. Lunch will be tuna salad and dinner will be peas and cornbread with some fried potatoes.
I will snack on cucumbers. My daughter has given me sacks and sacks of cucumbers and we have eaten them for snacks, in salads, on sandwiches, and now I may have to pickle some.....
Ladies, have a restful day and remember to get your water in, move a little, and rest your mind....give it a break.
Julia,
How did your squash dish turn out? I had some yellow squash that were getting close to being too ripe so I went ahead and roasted them in the oven....I stuffed them with a little cheese, bread crumbs, and mushrooms. They are pretty good by themselves but when I stuff them, they are so good.
Eileen,
My neurologists has talked to me about getting it and when I first had the wreck that messed my back up, they did a morphine pump implant and it got all infected plus the morphine was way too strong and kept me in a state of sedation, so I had them take it out. I will probably get it done but I am so afraid of anything that is invasive...
You will be so much happier once you are out of the politics of a company take over. My husband is thinking about retiring and I told him that he will probably be better off...he struggles so much with his diabetes and his kidneys...so maybe it's time.
Hi Laureen and my OFF family:
Good to hear about everyone. I'm at work, nearing the end of my work day. I've been here since 2:30 p.m., and there's just a few things left to finish up. I'm tired but my body isn't hurting too much; the neurostim has proven effective (I had a moment today when my left side of the back was hurting, turned on the stim and a few minutes later, no pain; drug-free relief. I love it.).
I'm a short-timer here. I haven't counted the weeks, but it's about six maybe. I'm getting sick of something of crap so I'm looking forward to the end. I don't know what I'll do when it's all over but I know I will be happier than I am now.
Well, got to finish those last few pages. Have a good Sunday.
So sorry for your loss, Linda. I went through something like that, too, the loss that is, of a dear friend. The food, well, nothing bothers me other than fried foods. Hang in there.
