Thu - Sun

Thu - Sat
We had a prophetic conference at school, so we had no school... so I took time off to sleep in a bit later (9am) and go for walks more :) and read a bit... and make my laptop more awesomely efficient :) ha ha :) I feel like I want to post a picture of my desktop... just because I am proud of how cool it is. Anyway...

The weather has been cool, and no snow :( even though they predicted it.

A summary of my food intake in America :)

I have learned how to make my own tortilla chips and salsa. They have a lot of chips here that are made from corn.. not only Big Corn Bites and Doritos. It must be one of the things I discovered I really like to eat... baked corn chips... yum...

The dollar pizza's from Winco is also a winner. Add some extra frozen veg over it, add some shredded cheeze... put in the toaster oven (everyone has one)... and enjoy :)

Cerial and milk in the morning, and tea from Winco - Lipton tea :) I also do not drink sugar in my tea anymore... just because EVERYTHING in the US has sugar in it... I mean EVERYTHING :) ha ha :) Even the yogurt has sugar in it. Even the cereal also... by default...

Banannas are a winner. Discovered that you can put them in the fridge, and they go black, but stay fresh inside... so I let them get ripe outside, then put them in the fridge. I take a banana to school, and a peanut butter jelly sandwich :) The jelly is different here. I also make pasta in bulk once a week. I also have tortilla wraps in the freezer. So I have a few options.

Meat: 100% Beef Patty meat, or canned tuna. It is easy to prepare, and we have a griller, so it takes 7 minutes for a patty to get cooked. And storing it does not go off.

I also drink fruit juice, to get my fruit intake. It lasts longer than fruit, and is not as seasonal. If they have peaces - then I buy them - but its not the season.

* My ideal would be to weekly go to a fruit store and fill a fridge with fruit, and then make smoothies the whole time... It takes more fridge space than I have, and more availability of fruit... but smoothies are great... they just make you feel healthy.

I also discovered this bread shop... they sell bread that taste like real bread... just eating a bite of it makes your whole body come alive... Ideally I would live off of real bread... and smoothies... not sure about what kind of protein though... I have not eaten any meat that made me come alive... the closest is fire baked fish with apricot jam... or maybe smoked salmon... I can go with that...

So I should plant some fruit trees, farm with salmon, and bake some bread :)

God is always good :)

O, and Sunday is today, and we had Bill speak on keeping devotion simple, and valuing the cross. I have my last art class today :( and then twinview service. Joy ;)
