I have a soft spot in my heart for "weird" produce that noone else seems to want. I never understand it- people put the weirdest crap in their bodies, but they want their produce to look picture-perfect.

Dreena pampering day, sans kids or anything kitchen related, is long overdue. I hope that your husband finds time to give you a good massage, among all the time it takes him to make salads and macaroni! Continue feeling better, and don't worry I'm probably a bigger klutz than you!<BR/><BR/>Those twin zukes and squash are so fun! I hate how commercial supermarkets and such have caused people to only accept produce that is of a perfect shape with absolutely no sign of any slight blemishes. Personally, that just screams unnatural and pumped with lots of hormones/steroids/nasty chemicals... I like produce with character that is natural and unique! (Did you know that Whole Foods actually has standards for the size of their produce? I recently visited an organic farm and they told us a lot of their strawberries are rejected from WFM.)<BR/><BR/>-TeresaTeresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17753640845806353841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-42773878490164283252007-07-29T07:00:00.000-07:002007-07-29T07:00:00.000-07:00Funny, Erica!

I think I'll stock up on macaroni for the future. <BR/><BR/>Thanks Julie, ha, that's just as bad I think... have we created our own problem by doing all the cooking?! Most likely. :)<BR/><BR/>Hiya Laura... a fellow klutz? I'm in good company anyhow. I'm doing much better, thanks.<BR/><BR/>Veggiegirl, sitting on my butt at the computer was one thing I *could* do... it was just getting there! I haven't seen twin peppers - that would be cool too - have seen the cherries. It's all fun! I'm such a food geek!<BR/><BR/>Hey Vivacious, it's nice to hear from you again. :0) Also nice to hear that it's not just my hubby. He can go through a lot of cold cereal and nut butter toast too... <BR/><BR/>Hi Aimee, that's so precious, that you share them with your twin!! Do you look much alike? Were you dressed the same as kids? I'm sure you get those questions all the time... lately our older daughter is fascinated with 'twins' and wants to do anything she can to be a twin with her lil sister!<BR/><BR/>Hyphen_helena, I love that angle. I'll use it! :)<BR/><BR/>Veg-A-Nut, I'm very lucky it healed as quicly as it has. I just have to watch out a little now I think. But I'm not a sit-back kind of person, so even a day or two of not keeping on top of stuff was hard!! Thanks for your well wishes. :)<BR/><BR/>Hi again Ellen! Thank you... very much... and yeah, it is a short survey. Fun to go through too, sometimes you see a brand of something or website or something you didn't even know about!<BR/><BR/>Hey Veggie Vixen... in form of storytelling it's fashion, though at the time trying to get the kids in the car and him drop me off without leaving the kids... not all that romantic! More rushed and scattered. :) I hear you, I need to practice what I preach, but that easier said than done as a mom, right?Dreenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16551890320761504899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-22323402064402902972007-07-28T11:34:00.000-07:002007-07-28T11:34:00.000-07:00How romantic -- your hubby carrying you. :-) Get b...How romantic -- your hubby carrying you. :-) Get better soon.
