Not a very exciting menu options day. We had mylkshakes for breakfast at Wyatt's request. I think he would have that every day if we let him. We used fresh bananas as we had a box about empty, and we still had to freeze a few so they wouldn't go bad. We'll use them soon enough.

We had to pick up quite a few supplies including our co-op big order: 25 lbs each cashews, almonds, sunflower seeds, coconut, 30 lbs red flame raisins, 15 lbs dates, 4 more gallons agave, himalayan salt, cumin, curry powder, hempseed, and some frozen strawberries. We also got another case of bananas at Native Sun and a case of golden delicious apples at Whole Foods. We also got some fresh strawberries, kiwi, and raspberries for one of Roger's favorite pies. We picked up another case of those wonderful mangos, a beautifully fragrant pineapple, a huge knob of ginger, and some more tamarindo. We also made a stop at Costco for avocados, oranges, pine nuts and walnuts, olive oil, more garlic, and a watermelon. So there might not have been too much in the way of menus today, but that's a bird's eye view of our eating for the coming week(s). yummmmmm

After the shopping, we had a cooler full of fridge stuff that we took to the park to eat with Darius and family. This was stuff we had fixed over the weekend: leftover alfreda, marinated mushrooms, refried beans, sour cream, untuna, raisin cheeze, sunlight patties, cucumber salad, pickles, cheddar cheeze, plus celery, lettuce, and tomatoes to eat it with. Everyone chose their own combination, and it was tasty, at least for me. I had refried beans and sour cream on lettuce tacos with tomatoes. Of course I couldn't resist raisin cheeze with celery for dessert. The grandbabies don't like the raisin cheeze, but that doesn't bother us at all (as in "more for us").
