They are a bit of work, but worth it i think. This woman does it right... https://www.themediterraneandish.com/how-to-make-falafel/ Canned chick peas is not the way to go. -

i will find/make one that's good. I love falafel and i'll make those if i have to. They are simple to make from scratch. The point is not to have to serve meat at every meal. When i make burgers i add ground beans, pinto or white kidney to ground beef. Michael is happy to eat them so, I'm happy with that. But the price of meat is idiotic so, I'm looking for a vegi option that i can make as something we can enjoy from time to time. -

veggies are our friends... and i am gonna make those lentil burgers from Sasha's site. I'll make them smaller like falafel .. .mmmm. Michael groans at me.. but He loves vegetables. We've been reducing our meat intake and as long as there is some and lots of veg, He's happy. I've never found jicama here locally.. Mmm, I will check wally world next time i order from there. -

"Flowers? Okay, what do you want?" I watched my sexy husband as he struggled in the vestibule. I’d gotten up from the sofa and peered down the hall. Faris juggled a huge bouquet of flowers, an umbrella and two sacks of groceries. “Help would be nice, to begin with.” Faris grinned then. “Some hot sex later, I’d appreciate that, James.” Putting my book aside, I moved to help out. “I’m sure you would. Not sure flowers are enough to tempt me though.” “Oh, that’s nice!” Faris

Went out onto the balcony, which now has NOTHING on it and cleaned up all the mess the balcony painters left behind ... 'we scrape off all the rust and old paint and repaint but we don't clean it up' Gotta love that. So when i went out to have some iced coffee in the breeze ... i'm like.. what is all of this? There was like two cups of crap out there. So i swept it up and got rid of it. I guess we can put the garden shed (mini rubbermaid cupboard for the outdoors) back out there. But Michael hauled all the junk that was out there down to the garbage. So it's empty now. -

i don't blame you, i think you guys have a lot more options than we do. And it is very hard to find local or north american garlic, even though we grow it here. But frozen, it's just like custard.. very soft and you could mash it with a fork. Still tastes and smells good. We'll get it used up. Maybe I'll make some curry paste. Michael and i love curry so i make the paste and then freeze it into pucks in silicone muffin trays.. pop them out and into a freezer bag. I did that when i wasn't working from home... the spices/flavours are done and Michael could easily make the curry without me. -

Used the first of our frozen garlic yesterday. Wow, it was so easy to peel and mash up, i may just freeze it all the time. We have a LOT of frozen garlic. I ordered one head of garlic from Wally World Groceries and they sent 16. Michael and i spent a little time in the kitchen that day, breaking them up into 2 to 4 clove pieces and freezing them but it was really easy to use it straight out of the freezer. Just sharing in case you decide you need to buy 16 heads of garlic. 🧄 -

I am up early to cook my greek chicken thighs which we will have for dinner tonight. OMG they smell so good. Having an iced coffee too.. first of the season! It's nice and gray out there so maybe it won't get so hot today. -

i have a beard...which is kept very short. And my hair cannot be too short or too long under normal circumstances. -
It doesn't always work with readers ... this evolving/expanding thing. I've learned that and even thought, albeit briefly, about going back to a tried and true world to make readers happy, but i can't do that. Not and stay true to what i believe writers should do, which is to write bravely. I think i do that. I've written lots of different characters, some fantasy and a bit of sci fi, comedy, drama, lots of different things, some more successful than others. I struggle being okay with that, but, I'm working on it. So, thanks for this. It confirms I'm on the right track and heading in the right direction. It also confirms that writing for yourself—writing the story you’d like to read—is the way to go.

His is getting long too... i think His mom has clippers.. likely not sharpened since He was little. I think scissors are a better bet.
