Today is Day 284 of my Daily Food Diary! 😉
This month (October) I am focusing on how the change of season affects our diet. So far, I have waffled between summer barbecue, to hearty soups or stews, to light salads, to a full blown Thanksgiving supper.
Today, It is cold and WET! I am not sure there is a meal that is geared to deal with that. We had Denver omelets for breakfast. I am thinking something ‘Light Comfort’ for supper. Whatever that is?
Before the rain started coming down last night, Dan and I did a lot of yard and garden cleanup. Dan worked at packing away the patio furniture and gazebo coverings. I picked the last of the tomatoes and peppers and pulled out the plants.
A number of the tomato plants had oddly stunted root systems, but deeply rooted or not, I got all of them pulled out and into the green bin. I am truly impressed with the strength I have!

Its sad to see summer slip away, isn’t it… I suggest a hearty bowl of home made chicken soup on a cold, rainy day. 🥰

It sure is! We had snow flurries earlier. They didn’t stick around but they will be back. Chicken soup sounds good!

Yummy! Looking back, just once per winter season a tiny bit of snow falls in the city, or my backyard. It is gone very quickly, yes! My home is at about 2800 foot ASL…

That snow yesterday was Texas calling to me, “Come baaack, Terry!” 😉 Good job on all of the yard work and big congrats on your newfound strength, Anne!
