Back to Business

Spent a few pleasant days with Husband and his family, to celebrate his Dad's 80th birthday. Lots of traditional Thanksgiving food and sweets were had by all. 
We're going to be doing Veggie Penance for a while. What's veggie penance?
Veggie penance simply makes up for the lack of balance in our diet during those over-indulgent holiday feasts. But I still try to keep it tasting good, so it really isn't penance in the truest sense. Anytime we go out to eat with friends or to someone's house and have an overly indulgent, salty, or meaty meal, we eat a bit MORE carefully than usual afterward for the next few days, to get back on track.
I saw some ornamental kale growing outside the hotel window before we started back this morning. One more day and I would have been out there sampling it! It looked really good! Anyway, the rice is ready. See you later!
