Chocolate and Greens Don't Mix

-
I was trying to be healthy and decided to buy some protein bars, You know, try them out, to see which one I liked best. One such bar is called Greens and Whey. The one I bought was chocolate-coated peanut butter, which should be a bit of a taste of heaven. But--the Greens and Whey, and maybe the green package should have been a warning flag! I was having a chocolate attack, and since I'm trying to be good, decided to try my new protein bar. I bit into that bar and just about gagged! And to top it off, it's all green inside. Yuck!
 
This is a note to self that I thought I should share. Now, to continue the search for good-tasting chocolate...
 
I hope your day is better than mine. Maybe you have a smile now.

CSI: Church

September 30th was a big day in our household, for it was the Sunday that we ended a six-year relationship at the church where we are members.

Leaving (since we were the oddballs, so to speak) has been one of the most difficult things we've ever done as a couple. I would put it right after the whole immigration fiasco, and the dual deaths we experienced in 2002 and then again in 2005. This post has been a long time brewing. I have so much to say. With each Sunday that we visit and investigate a new church, and with each interesting person we meet, I kind of feel like I'm a part of a TV show and this mystery is unravelling with each step we take. I thought we were going to be placed into a dry and weary desert and I was gearing up to experience a dehydrated spiritual life. But I am very happy to report that it seems that God had other plans. Healing... We took the ...

Interesting! I picked these Nasturtium flower seeds out at Home Depot because (1) they were very pretty, (2) I liked the Empress of India name for the red ones, and (3) they were “buy one get one free” for Earth Day. I’d never even heard of them before. I bought a jewel mix and the Empress of India variety and when I looked them up, I found out they are also edible. They are like water cress (which is another thing I think I will plant). I have planted the Nasturtiums in the front yard along the path to the front door. I can hardly wait to see how they look when they bloom! http://www.sallybernstein.com/food/columns/gilbert/nasturtiums.htm http://www.gardenguides.com/plants/info/flowers/annuals/nasturtium.asp This is the Empress of India variety. What bold red! I also planted 2 purple balloon Flowers on either side of the walkway. Our garden consists of 9 green pepper plants (yeah, I know it’s a lot but I love green peppers!), 3 cherry tomato plants (these are so addictive; great in s...
