I got so many things accomplished yesterday! 

I baked bread,
cooked a big pot of black-eyed peas, made 2 dessert cookies and cut up
veggies to store in the frig for this week's salads.  I find that I am
very motivated in the mornings these days; and I can get so much
accomplished if I just get right at it.

Today, I was just not craving a salad.  My doctor said that would occasionally happen.  
So I did what he suggested.  I made a nice fruit salad:  bananas,
pears, grapes and oranges from our tree.  I also put in chopped pecans
and a sprinkle of coconut.

It was delicious!

For my dessert, I included some Pecan Spice Delight Cookies
that I made yesterday.  These are raw, but so yummy.  My mom tasted
them and said, "It tastes like Christmas!"  What more could you ask for
from a raw cookie? 

(Please
keep in mind that when I link to these recipes, it doesn't mean that I
endorse everything on the website.  I have only read the recipes.  I
really have no idea what the "philosophy" may be on a particular site.)

My tummy is full and my appetite is satiated.  Mmmm…mmm…mmm!

Tonight we plan to eat leftover black eyed peas over brown rice, along with a nice salad.

We
were blessed by our state again this spring, just like last year, and
they are sending Isaac some diapers, wipes and washable pads.  That is
such a HUGE blessing to us!  We are very grateful!

Today we were able to get a dehydrator.  I am excited to see what kinds of new treats I can make with it. 

<<<More experimenting in my la-bor-a-tory!!!  Mwha-ha-ha-ha!!!>>>

We also picked up these cute little Ball jars (remember I ran out of jars when I was organizing?)  That baby holds a whole pint!

Well, I guess that's it for today.  I pray you have a great evening (or morning, Laura!).

Blessings to you,
Alesha
