I've been waiting for you to show up this morning! Is it a bad time to ask if the Nasoya Organic Super Firm Tofu I have sitting in a pan with balsamic vinegar needs to be cooked? oops 🤷‍♀️ 

Luv your mug 😁 

I've been known to slice tofu straight off the block and eat it, and it's used uncooked in all sorts of recipes, so I think you're fine 😊 Yeah, I keep turning up like a bad penny, don't I? 😜 

It's my favorite mug -- I also have a t-shirt. I won the Wonder Woman gift basket in a fundraising raffle 😂 

Awwwe, sending you hugs 🤗 wish I could send you the other block! 

All my good stuff went bye-bye when parents had unexpected garage/tag sale. Broke my heart, ALL gone! These are fun things to have. Wonder Woman childhood favorite, girl power! 

Hubby needs to man-up and get you some fresh produce 🥦🥬🥒🥑🫑🌽🥕 Don‘t know many people who like grocery stores. 

That's so sad, LivinBreezy! 😥  

sk.17 -- believe it or not, I love a good grocery store, but I'm fascinated with food, nutrition and cooking. I'm sure my husband would go to the store if I placed a pickup order for him. That's our usual routine, but I haven't had the energy to deal with it the last couple of days 😴 In the meantime, we still have onions and some canned and frozen veggies. Those just don't work as well for snacks! 😂 We're also ok on the fruit front 

Love red pepper. Any hummus to go with it maybe? My husband loves to grocery shop but my list can get interesting if I let him go. He thinks he is getting the right thing so he means well and mostly it’s all ok. I hope your cold goes away quickly!:) 

I love red peppers. My favorite.  

What about a roadside stand? I don't really snack since I eat decent-sized meals, but there's always a bag of frozen grapes in the icebox. Do you have any fruit trees on your property? What's edible on the trails?  

Morticia -- they're a favorite of mine, too 😊 

Ah, JB...I fear in my attempt at humor I made the situation sound more dire than it is and unfairly maligned my poor, sweet husband 🤣 I have plenty of fruit and other healthy snacks in the house, just not fresh veggies to cut up (I do have a couple of beets and might have some cabbage). I'm sure he'd run to the store if I put together an order for pickup, but I've been sick this week and not up to dealing with it. Speaking of being sick...my food diary is appalling this week, and after my big hike Sunday, I've pretty much spent my non-working time lying flat. I've learned the hard way that the quickest way for me to get rid of a cold is complete inactivity and a lot of simple carbs 😜 

I have an overly romantasized version of Wyoming in my head, where the only competition for fresh food are the wild animals. Figured if hubby doesn't like the crowds at an enclosed store, perhaps a farmer's market or roadside stall would appeal. Sorry to hear about your cold, but oranges & grapefruit are wonderful, and hubs could just buy those, yes? 

Oh, dear...that IS a romanticized image! It's ranching country, not farmland, so no roadside stands. High, dry prairie. If I get desperate, I'll get my act together and place a grocery order, or just send him to the store for a couple of things. In the meantime, he did fix me dinner 😊 

How was it. Isn't it spicy. Never tried snacking raw red bell pepper before. Mine usually cucumbers and carrots. Btw just did my weekly grocery shopping yesterday. Clearly see the price of fresh produce increasing steadily from time to time. 

Red Bell Peppers are sweet and just simply divine 💘 

Nice mug Wwyo! I have one very similar at work 🦸‍♀️❤ 

Not spicy at all, ginome. Wonderfully sweet and crunchy. Margenotlisa -- thanks! I try to channel that Wonder Woman spirit some days. Remind myself I can do hard things 😉
