First Meal: Not long ago I created this soup made with organic Purple Sweet Potatoes, organic Tofu, organic Red Onions and Water. I like to call it Purple Rain Soup, not Prince’s “blood in the sky” variety but an anthocyanin-rich, fragrant dish with a gorgeous purple hue. There was some leftover Garbanzo Bean batter…
First Meal: A liquid beginning for the day. A green smoothie with organic Kale, organic Blueberries, organic Bananas and organic Soy Milk and organic Maté Tea. Second Meal: It almost feels like we are home. Gary made one of his specialties, a Garbanzo Bean Flour Frittata with organic Kale and organic Onions and Home…
First Meal: After our grocery shopping yesterday at the Staff of Life Market, I was envisioning making a smoothie with a couple of the gorgeous bunches of organic Lacinato Kale we purchased. Gary picked up an inexpensive blender to use while staying at his dad’s house. Since it’s not a Vitamix that laughs at anything…
First Meal: One day without a green salad and I was craving one so badly. Gary made me a big bowl of organic Baby Greens and organic Arugula with a Tahini Dressing and Olives. What more could I ask for? How about leftovers? Yesterday’s organic Brown Rice Pasta and Peas with Cashew Cheese Sauce…
First Meal: Gary and I are happy to be together. We are happy eating together. But we don’t have to eat the same way. I made organic Polenta and topped it with Gary’s homemade Marinara Sauce and Nutritional Yeast. Gary topped his Polenta with Apricot Butter. Savory or Sweet – have it your way. …
First Meal: I have been here at Gary’s dad’s home since Monday night. I am feeling more at home and decided it was my turn to make breakfast. I made Oatmeal, cooked with Raisins, Bananas and Pumpkin Seeds. I stirred in Raspberries when it was all done. It’s beautiful. Second Meal: We had another…
First Meal: Happy Valentine’s Day. We are feeling a bit disoriented today, with Gary’s dad dying yesterday. After a meeting with his family at the mortuary to plan the funeral Gary and I wanted to go somewhere where we would feel at home and comfortable. There’s only one place like that in San Jose and…
First Meal: We had no idea this would be the day. Gary’s 93-year-old-dad had had a difficult night, moaning and groaning throughout most of it. His evening caretaker was in need of help and called the women who managed him during the day. She knew he was going fast. Gary’s dad didn’t want to go…
First Meal: It’s lovely to be back together with Gary. We had a rough night though. We are staying at his 93-year-old dad’s house and his dad is not doing well. He has 24-hour, in-home care. The woman who is taking care of him most of the time is marvelous. But he seemed uncomfortable last…
