blessings

Hi there, how's your day going? Yesterday, we celebrated my daughter's 32nd birthday. Wow, where did the year go?  I left work early to stop at the Mexican market near my office.  The only thing I miss about my old neighorhood is not being near one of these....

 There's something unique about shopping at one of these markets. There is more inner-action with the butcher, the baker and I find people so friendly and talkative.

 The bakery... O.M.G.  I stood around smeeling the fresh bread and oogling the pastelitos.

I got to my daughters house and she had already started the posole. I went to her house during lunch to deliver the pork and chile verde that I prepared in advance.

 Here is my bowl of posole. I used a kids bowl and topped with shredded cabbage and lemon.

We had geletina (Mexican jello) and my son brought these cubcakes.  We all shared a few so we could taste them.  I definitely at more sugar than I have in weeks and my stomach paid the price. I was sick afterwards. This is the 3rd time I've eaten sweets and have gotten sick after going grain free. I told myself I would go grain free for 2 weeks. I am going to continue on but accept that from time to time, I will not be 100%.  Eating less sugar, grains and carbs will be the goal.

I had a very lovely day and I am thanking the good Lood for all his blessing. Have a great day all. I'm off to conquer my Friday....
