The blueberries we get in Europe are, in my opinion, virtually tasteless. They have, however, received great PR and are regarded as a superfood, leading them to be popular with those claiming to be living more healthily. This usually manifests itself in people throwing a handful of bluberries on a sugary, calorie-laden breakfast cereal and patting themselves on the back at their healthy lifestyle.
🤢 I remember being the outlier in my family regarding breakfast cereals. That's when I started having peanut butter toast.

Thankfully, the blueberries here still have great flavor. I bought 2 pints last night as they were on sale and looked really good. I'll have them with breakfast - but they will be solo. 🫐 😋
 
Neither pancakes nor muffins? We need to struggle to find ground so we may remain friends, else I shall have to divorce you.
We'll always have books and reading.
Even my own body isn't always on speaking terms with food 🤷‍♀️
And I like pancakes and muffins - we can leave it at that... no need for the deep dive that reveals I prefer to healthify my pancakes and enjoy a plain bran muffin to the sweetified and fruitified versions :LOL:
 
Morning, Spoonies
What's the hap so far today?
Mmm, OM sure does give good coffee 😋 :coffee:
I really had a good sleep of 7 hours. I feel amazing.
Definite Win Column!! 🎉
I'm staring at the aging region of life going "Wow how did that happen?"
Good luck all as time speeds by
So true... so true
After your reminder it has gone in the bin. My enemies are safe…for the moment 🤭
Wise man! I don't always toss my Louisiana Red Hot in a timely manner - but it doesn't have that mayo base. Those don't get to linger. Sayonara Sir Kensington Sauce 🫡 You have served me well, but your time has come.
You always have such great coffee memes. This one is my favorite for today! 😂
🥰 I love OM's coffee (and tea) memes! Like starting off the day with a warm hug 🤗
Woke up with a terrible headache.
Oh no! Hope you find a resolution
I often use an acupressure clip to help with headaches. Aculief is one example. Just makes it easier than physically pinching that spot between thumb and forefinger.

It passed muster with flying colors! So I got this off a feed, but they actually got it off This place; CarlsbadCravings. You have to scroll down a bit but it’s there.
Sweet! Thank you - I've bookmarked and will give it a try. Picked up some produce and barley last night in anticipation.

Anyone else always hear that word in Tim Curry's voice? :unsure:
Standard time just works w my body clock. I’m not dying on any hill over this though. Pick ONE of them and go with it! Just quit changing the damn clocks!🤣
I’d prefer daylight savings… but agree. No more clock fuckery.
I agree... just land somewhere and stop messing about! 🕰️
I missed the meeting. Slept right through it... :unsure:
Win Column!
 
The oil from poison ivy can stay active for a year! So if you have it in your tools, or your shoelaces, or your boots etc, you can keep on getting it.

Worst I ever had it:
1. As a teen, we were partying in a field that must have had a metric fuck-ton of PI. I was super itchy so I took a hot bath before I went to bed. Essentially it was the worst possibly thing to do - it made the oil spread all over my body. Two weeks worth…

2. About 20 years ago I was weeding the garden. I pulled a “weed” out of the garden that was actually PI. Well… the roots have the most concentration of the oil. And then I worked the rest of the day, seeeating, rubbing my head and brow.

I needed up having PI all over my face and head. It was awful.

Both times were about 2 weeks worth of living in fuck city…
My worst was in NJ. I moved in with a woman who owned a grist mill for the 1600’s. Odd shaped house because it was built somehow over a huge rock. On the higher side you walked out at ground level. There was a barn in the brush that looked somewhat like it had been a lawn at some point. I investigated and there was an old model A or model T that had been plundered for parts but otherwise intact. So I set out to clean up the barn and make it last. Kind of rebuild it around the old car. No way I could clean out the inside.
The main house was in somewhat aged disrepair. The kitchen was her project. The main house had the floors finished and all new windows. Yet it was full of holes. We pretty much left the doors open in the day even when we were not there. It was closer to Ringos between there and Princeton with an Amwell zip code. There were 3 cats. Din, Beanie and spotty. I loved listening to the mouse wars that went on during the night.
Anyway, to make it easier to work on the little barn I rebuilt the carb on the push mower and got that running. I mowed a path to the barn and around it. Then decided to mow as much or the yard up there I could.
We named “Atomic Ivy” the New Jersey state weed. I know now not to mow “grass” that has PI in it. And I think the free roaming cats I stole from her continued my rash for quite sometime. She says I stole the cats as Din and Beanie always sat with me. I think I was just warmer. And the girl child had a rule that if a cat was sitting on you that you had to be waited on. I didn’t disturb a sitting cat. Was a great way to save your seat.
