In reply to Susan Krageschmidt. Thank you Susan! I will look for those apples. I won't even tell you how much I paid for 5 Honeycrisps the other day. Terrible! But they were sooooo good. Love you and was so happy to see Zoe. xoxo

So, your peanut butter is also my husband’s favorite, If you like the honeycrisp you should look around for the Pazazz or posssibly the Sweet Sonya apple. You have connected to my daughter in ways that none of us will know. I am crying right now. Love u so.

Julie-

I eat the same peanut butter (except the crunchy variety) and I HATE when the oil runs down the side of the jar. I’ve gotten a lot better at mixing it without this happening but I’m going to definitely try your method!!!

Also, I like Pentel RSVP medium point pens. I also like Sharpie PENS, but I don’t know that that’s what you are looking for. You might try the Pentel ones. I like that they come in different colors too.

In reply to Shari C..

How wonderful to have plentiful berries where you are Shari. And I remember all the roadside strawberry stands we had in SoCal growing up… Such a part of childhood! God bless your Easter Shari…xxoo

Love the picture of you and Louisa, Julie!!
Love Pink Lady apples, too!
Living in Washington has made eating apples a whole new wonderful experience 🙂
This is going to be really weird…but one of my new found favorites is kale! It’s been growing in our garden for this whole last year and the baby leaves taste really good.
And I must always include berries in my favorite lists 🙂
Bruce has been growing some sweet raspberries and blueberries. I love the wild blackberries that grow just about everywhere around here in the Seattle area. And being a Californian girl at heart, I must include my love for strawberries 🙂

In reply to Tauni.

I looked up that pen Taun — looks very efficient! And I hadn’t heard of GenTeal — I think I might try that as well. Your little grands are so beautiful, Tauni. Thank you for your comments. I have had more than one person tell me they love it when you comment on my blog, and look forward to reading what you say. xxoo

I am taking a brief moment of time to get caught up on your blog (had to read the last three/four posts). Thought I would respond to this one ~ my favorite apple hands-down is Fuji apples. I eat one almost every day (I also love Ruby Red Grapefruits, YUM!). As for pens, I use the Pentel Rolly C4 ~ it is a four color pen. I love it because it has a comfy rubber area where I grip it and my arthritic hands don’t feel so bad after I have been using it. I need four colors as I am doing so many things it is a way for me to keep track of what area in my life it belongs, red for urgent business, green for non-urgent business, blue for my personal stuff (cuz I really love blue!) and black for other things like reminder notes until i can get it into my ipad. I am trying to put everything into my ipad now as it is compact and usually with me.

I too have to use eye drops, mostly due to contacts and long periods of time at the computer ~ am getting better at taking eye breaks though ~ and I use Genteal for severe dryness at night. I will also wake up with my eyes feeling like rubbing against sandpaper at night. And during the day I use the same product for moderate to severe as I use them often with my contacts in.

Have never tried the wipes, but will hopefully soon. I am all about no chemicals! Love the idea of using water only. Your endorsement is good enough for me!

Lip gloss ~ been wearing it as long as you have been ~ same stuff too. I love the CO Bigelow and will often get the ones with the mint extracts and a little color for daytime use and the no color at night.

My favorite thing to do is usually anything with my husband ~ which is a real switch for me ~ but I also love to garden. and hang out with my Grans of course!!

My favorite baby is really not a baby anymore. She will be two in July. Time does fly by doesn’t it. I will admit I have a couple of very cute grand-nephews but one I have not met yet ~ I know him from his mom’s facebook posting.

My favorite blogger is you ~ though your site has propelled me into a few others I like too. Just not enough time to see them all!! And speaking of time, time for me to get back to work! Love you ~ will check in soon!

In reply to sue raimo. I am always struck by the depth of your life, your words, your gift of encouragement, and your walk with the Lord, Sue. You are one of my treasures. Thank you. xxoo

I was struck by your reference to the fact that you cry so easily. As someone who does not easily cry, I am attracted to those who have the “gift of tears”. I fell in love with my husband because he weeps when he prays. Most of my dearest friends (including you) cry easily. I envy this gift and enjoy it more now than I have in the past. Experiencing my emotions with the accompaniment of tears makes me feel more fully alive.
