just dropping in to say hi and hug your necks! I listened to a little of the YT Live before I had to run to the field to pick him up.
I'm doing the best I can eating mostly meat-based, considering the craziness of life right now. I hope to do some major meal prep tomorrow for next week. The weather is suppose to hold and we'll have some long days picking corn.
That's all for now, off to read and bed.
And for your inspo:
Cheese is good! I ate a block of chipotle oven baked cheese with lunch yesterday and it was divine. I love it, but know that it halts any progress I'm making, and will even trigger eating in excess to where I'll gain weight. It's sad but I have accepted it. If I eat it in small quantities with a meal, it's ok, but I really have to work to keep it in check.
What's your favorite cheese? How do you incorporate it? Do you see negative results when eating it?
Happy Sunday! Sharing a video today from our week, one of the highlights. This was Wednesday evening church, normally they have a more casual prayer meeting where someone plays the guitar, but they were doing some construction in the fellowship hall so they had their prayer meeting in the sanctuary. No one was there to play the piano so my my Grandma did it, she's been playing the piano in church for probably 80 years.
For context, she's 88, she had a really bad fall 5 years ago now and hit her head and ended up with a lot setbacks, similar to having a stroke. She has a lot of dementia like symptoms also (I am sure related to her Type 2 diabetes), she really can't read music anymore, and she has trouble seeing well, and she needs to wear hearing aids to hear but hates wearing them, so on this night she didn't want to wear them. My 93 (almost 94) year old grandpa takes care of both of them on their farm. Anyway, on this night she sat down on the piano and led worship as people called ...
Happy Saturday! I hope you are all doing well. I know some people in the group have had some recent tough news for themselves or family members. It really puts the day to day issues we face into perspective, and reminds me to just focus on doing the best I can to be as healthy as possible. To those who are having a hard time, we are all here for you and sending you some prayers and support. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Just focus today on doing the best you can and remember that food isn't going to bring you the comfort you are looking for.
Here is a little video of Penelopes performance from her piano recital l last night, she's been taking lessons for about a year and a half. 🎹🤍🖤
*Livestream Monday night at 4pm pst/7pm est
Happy Saturday! Thanks for those that popped into the Livestream on YouTube last night. I'll do another stream here in Locals on Monday evening.
The kids and Chris have an event today at jiu jitsu this morning and will be gone for a few hours, which means I get a quiet morning home alone! 🙌🏼😂 I am going to go for a long walk and work on editing my video. Then we plan to go check out a new carniceria grocery store/restaurant for lunch. They advertise some AMAZING looking pork belly that reminds us of what we had in Spain. I'll make sure to take pictures!
What are your plans for this weekend?
@Lauraespath I just opened my dehydrator! The book gives all kinds of pre cooking and blanching and seasoning instructions. Do you do all that? Can you give me basic instructions for the pork loin? Like slice thickness, time, temp and if you season before or after. Thank you so much!
