Hello friends, long time no blog! It’s been over 2 weeks since I last posted… it seems like forever!!

Howdy, y’all! I’m in Texas, so this greeting just comes naturally.

Hi folks! Back to the regular edition of WIAW… I woke up starving! I had my usual green smoothie… But I added to my breakfast by putting almond butter and blueberry jam on my banana oat cookies. Yum! I’m normally not a fan of any sort of PB& J combination but this hit the spot.
