Oh, dear kat - I'm sorry it is such a difficult time for you and I hope the family visit resulted in some peace for all of you.
Sorry the sib stress has returned, Arabella. It has taken me a long time to to figure out my sibs are not my children and, these days, even my kids have to sort a lot out for themselves.
Apples - well, I was going to say sliced thin but then that apple pie thought came by and grabbed me. I do eat them sliced thin much more often than in pie but I wouldn't turn down a good piece of apple pie. Now peanut butter (my fave) is best in fudge if it's good, non commercial fudge. Failing that, it's good in every way, shape or form (except oddly in Reese's peanut butter cups which I used to love - don't know what they've done to them). I do love it right from the jar in moderation, in celery, on crackers and ala Elvis though I don't batterdip and fry by pb & banana sandwiches and mostly have them on whole wheat.
Umm, all that food talk! I'm on day six of being under 1700 calories and have enough left for a moderate snack soon. My homegrown tomatoes and the homemade redbeets have been a BIG help. My sis called the beets my "comfort food" and she's right about that as long as her MIL has made them.
The lawsuit thing could still drag on forever but at least now we've had a tacit admission of sorts that it was the drug overdose that did my honey in. So, at least for a while, I can think of a few guys who'll be putting a little more concentration in for their patients (at least, I HOPE so).
I spent some time today setting up to take part in neighborhood garage sale. Don't have a lot out though I could DO that if I expended more energy. However, all things out in the garage for sale will not be coming back into the house so I'm figuring it was motivation to at least move SOME things. Plus I don't think I want to do it two days. Or at least not all of the allotted time. Just wanted to go through a bit - may pick out a few more things between now and Friday.
Hoping this heat/humidity leave soon so I can get back to the invigorating weather. Did do some yard work with my friendly kid down the street this a.m. so I think I'll count that as my exercise for the day. Aching enough, anyway.
