Let us know what you think!
First Meal: We are settled in Monte Sereno for the week. First a funeral to attend on Saturday and now we are free to enjoy the Bay Area. The weather is perfect, sunny, warm with a cool breeze here and there. Breakfast began with a bowl of Oats loaded with fresh fruit – Apples, Bananas…
First Meal: Gary made us bowls of Oats, Apples, Raisins, Bananas and Soy Milk. I was not disappointed. It was simple, wholesome, nourishing good food. Second Meal: We are staying in Monte Sereno and the Los Gatos Creek Trail is nearby, in walking distance. We walked their and did the piece we always do…
First Meal: This was a day of bad eating. Maybe “bad” is the wrong word. “Frustrated” is better, or “disappointed” perhaps. This was a day of frustrated, disappointed eating. We got on the wrong foot to begin with. We arrived in San Jose at about 9pm and were settled in at around 10pm. We were…
First Meal: We’re flying! Flying! Flying! AGAIN. I came back from Costa Rica, Gary returned from the Bay Area.

Green Juice: Sometimes, more often than not, I have overly ambitious plans for the day. Today was one of those days. I signed up for an 8:45am training class with the Board of Elections to be a poll worker for the upcoming elections. The location was about an hour’s walk from home. I thought I…
First Meal: Frozen leftovers are gifts from you in the past. I love reaching into the freezer to see what Gary and I have left for us in the future. I took out Red Lentil Soup, Baked Tofu, Sweet Potatoes, Yellow Potatoes and Okara and put them in the refrigerator. I warmed up some of…
