Listening to Wild by Cheryl Strayed.   I like her honesty.

Yesterday, volunteered at Home Tour.  Sat at a house in our neighborhood to greet people and make sure they either put on paper booties or took off their shoes.  As a volunteer, I could have gone on house tour also but why bother?  I didn't even take a look at the lovely house I was stationed in, only venturing from my doorway chair to quickly use the bathroom.  Won't volunteer again on the weekend or at the Home Tour - not my style.

Family is making annual pilgrimage to Salman Raspberry Ranch this year.  Me, I can buy frozen raspberries at Trader Joe's so I stay home and reap the fruits of their labor.  Besides, I have to get up early tomorrow for a volunteer task that will occupy most of the day.

I will go with them next weekend to Rancho de las Golondrinas Harvest Fest - crowded, hot but at least it's family time!

Made brownies yesterday - cocoa powder, garbanzo bean flour, applesauce, honey, date sugar, vanilla extract, natural peanut butter, almond butter, soy milk, rolled oats.  They actually taste good - even husband likes them - but after we use them up, I need to start eating less green tea, cocoa powder and honey. Need to try to adhere better to OmniHeart diet to improve my cholesterol profile.
