Comments
Hope you are staying safe out there. Wishing you and yours well.
That's a really exhaustive list and I really appreciated reading it.
It's seems like a wonderfully balanced smorgasbord of foods for you and the family, despite the current lack of Blue you have.
I too wish I had more blue in my life but Blueberries are hella pricey and outside of Berries I can't think of very much edible blue.
Hope we get to continue to discuss more nutrition-related topics as the class progresses.
-take good care!
