So sorry guys, my 2 1/2 hour drive home from the cabin is turning into a 5+ hour drive home so I am not going to make it in time to Livestream tonight. I'll post the link for the Dr Berry Livestream for tomorrow when I know it. I'll catch up on posts here when I get home if you have any questions.

Nathaniel has perfected what he calls "Medium Rare" Pepperoni chips. For a more crispy texture leave them in for one minute..but he thinks 55 seconds is the perfect chewy/crunchy texture.

Well total miscommunication with the pig for lunch today. 😂 We thought we ordered the whole pig but maybe because we ordered so much other food or because there was only 3 of us they brought us one PORTION of pig and not the whole one. It was probably all the food we needed because we also had blood sausage, fried bacon, octopus, and a bunch of cheeses...but I was bummed I didn't get a picture with one. 😂😂 I took this before from someone else's table thinking ours was on the way still. They cut the pig with a plate to show you how tender it is. The skin was absolutely incredible. They only season it with salt and then pour over some of the broth it's cooked in on your plate. Such an incredible meal.

Today I am grateful for the rain! ☔ 🌧️ I definitely took it for granted when I lived in Midwest, but living in Arizona everybody just gets so excited here whenever it rains. I was volunteering in the second grade class in church yesterday and all the kids were just sitting by the open door smelling the rain and begging to go play in it. I remember so many times being really annoyed because of the rain living in Chicago or Indiana, today was a fun reminder how important it is and the life it provides.

Okay now let's set some goals for the week ahead. Coming from someone who follows politics VERY closely, I will say I am glad we keep politics out of this group. It can be so divisive and more often than not adds just adds unnecessary stress to our lives...and in this crazy world it's nice to have a place where non of that matters.

That being said, this week will be intense for America, and no matter who wins there will be a lot of tension in our country. I only bring this ...

Happy Monday Evening All.
Thanks again Laura for the great Livestream. And it was nice to see everyone tonight. Those who couldn't join, you were missed ( ahem, Veebs)
Today was a chilly, damp, and then rainy day. Not the funnest day to do a fast but I'm doing it. 25 hours in.
And while thinking of our walking members... Kristie, Veebs, BeckyLynn, I walked at lunch. Oh how I did not want to go, but I wanted to finish listening to last week's sermon and then 4 blocks in, I remembered I downloaded that silly Map My Walk app, I walked over 1.14 miles (add on whatever 4 city blocks equals to) and more than 2715 steps.
Who am I anymore???? 2022 Kay would be amazed. 2026 Kay is applauding and telling me to keep going, get those steps in.

No food report but I have been drinking hot drinks. Coffee (nope, not a 100% clean fast) and Mango Chili LMNT today. I tried a hot Chocolate Raspberry LMNT. It's not for me. I'll add some into the Equip I mix up to add to my coffee (a spoonful of ...
