If you like Vanilla coke, or Diet Coke, don't bother with the zero crap. I just poured 7/8 of a can down the drain. ugh. It might have something to do with the fact that I've avoided carbonated beverages like the plague recently in a quest to be healthier. I've been drinking ice cold water with a slice of lemon (mmmm!!! I could drink that forever!!!) and making my own "liberty tea" (made with herbs instead of black or green tea--that's what the colonists called it during the Revolutionary War era). It's satisfying to drink something made with my own garden. Sometimes I do put in some black tea or a blend of other stuff I have. .. it's fun. :) Lemon balm, lavender, chocolate peppermint, peppermint, mmmm!
I've recently discovered a new fruit that I enjoy. FIGS! Who would have thought? They're so sweet and just bursting with flavor. Grace really likes them, too. We grilled some at a party and added a dollop of homemade whipped cream with almond and cinnamon and it was heavenly!
Food is on the brain today. I can't figure out what to make for dinner. I finally got our table cleared off and organized the homeschool items so that we can eat AS A FAMILY. It will be nice. Hopefully Terry isn't too stressed when he comes home tonight. NASA/new administration=job uncertainty these days.
Here's an article Terry sent me that he thinks sums up quite neatly the current state of our space program:
