berries



Was up till 4 again this morning before I took a sleeping pill.

So I woke at 11 and went to the store.

I went to the farmers market this morning and bought so much I couldn't carry it all. To avoid my 3 baskets of berries from being crushed while I selected cherry and grape tomatoes, I rested the bad on the table and my heavy ones on the ground. When I picked up my bags, I forgot the berries. I went on to buy melons, corn, eggs, more pickling cuc's celery, beets, potatoes,red and green peppers and chili's for chili reanos, garlic, cilantro and beefsteak tomatoes. I could barely lift my bags. I put them in the car and went to the supermarket to get water, eggplant, cucumber,and avocado. Then, I remembered my berries and drove back. Needless to say, the berries were gone. :-( I was ticked.
I could have bought more but just left. Sometimes at the end of the market they reduce prices.

I came home and made some great gazpacho cold soup; with cilantro tomatoes,cucumber and bell pepper and onion. Then I made potato sadad. Then long beans with soy, rice vinegar and sesame oil. Now, I just need to cut the melons up.

The soup was really good for dinner along with scallops and mushrooms. Felt VERY and healthy. Quite nutricious.

Then I went to the library to pick up Michael Connelly's new book,
The Scarecrow


Just like planes, birds fly into power lines and start fires. That's how they say these fires above Santa Cruz started and they are still burning.

Lacy's back is no better so I'll try another shampoo a bit more througly.
