Today is a Dreary Rainy Wednesday :o)

Yet there is much to smile about here at our house :o)  Yesterday we took First Cousin to a place we found that is a "Food Paradise" any and everything to eat under the Sun.
I don't have to order smoked tongue from a distance anymore..it's right here at home..
Just by someome overhearing Cecil speak of it , is what led  them to give him directions

to the "Food Paradise"  place. You all remember me telling you my Persimmon tree only delivered five persimmons this year! Well that was the first thing I saw and purchased :o) as you can also see, I've eaten two already..I thought about peeling a couple and putting them into the foodsaver bags, and just defrosting when i wanted to eat them...I'll have to do that soon, because I can't stand the temptation of gobbling them up.

Then there are the bundles of Fresh Spinach,
that I thought I'd blanch and save..uh! once I shrink some I wanted to eat some and I ate a bundle all by myself..then fixed Cecil a bundle..I could see there was no sence in doing a blanching deal ..so I cooked them all they were so fresh and delicious and the biggest leaves I've seen in a while. So I don't do well growing Spinach ,someone else did :o) and the price was so so resonable for the amount $1.09 bunch. I don't have to worry about any greens for the next two days..Spinach is part of the menu :o) First Cousin was excited too and she got three bundles ..bet she eats them up fast too...:o)

We picked up a lot of fruit , Pears, Peaches, 

and I couldn't resist the Avacado's  Also there were a few bottles of Aloe Vera I was just dying to try, I've heard so much about Aloe being good for the body in so many

ways..Two flavors should give me some idea if I like it or not.. 

                                                               













The Baby Boc Choy was just too tempting to leave it all there, so I brought some home  :o)....somehow, I will squeeze it in the menu.
Especailly on a day like today..I'm tired from shopping..and it's a good day to watch TV and nibble...B/S watch yourself :o)
