That could be true! I went to dr's office and picked up the hard copy and it's not on the usual form with everything listed and boxes to check - it looks more like a prescription - so I can't alter it haha like I would do that anyway, my good little girl complex would never let me do such a thing

Since I have the office to myself today, I put on some music. It's too quiet/eerie/spooky otherwise. But I want to be able to hear the front door so I can't play it very loud.

I bought an rv so I can travel while on hybrid teaching. The biggest hurdle right now is that my dog is not yet enamored of riding in any vehicle.

Excellent choice. An RV will fit more Couchies.

I call shotgun!

I would think the vehicle is already sufficiently armoured, what with the nunchucks and the solar reciprocating saw...

It is rather armored for off roading and has a lot of solar power and a volta system - no propane - all electric. A/C can run off of batteries for 6 hours or so for dogs

Maybe try freeze dried fruit? It would be chalky, like your pom-pom stick or whatever its called. Not mushy, i guess most fruits and veg are mushy or get mushy.

How about fresh snap peas? They are very crisp and i think delightful. It has a singular flavor, rather sweet. Not too tough. Carrots are hard unless sliced very thin, but they have a mild, sweet flavor. Peas are the first veg i remember eating, straight from the garden.

Pears have the worst texture, mushy AND particles will get stuck under your gums, but they have a divine aroma and taste. Same for pineapple.

And that is the end of lunas cooking show for today!

How long are you letting your pears sit out before you eat them?

For me its a tradeoff - firmer means less flavor. But for some reason, my apartment seems to be some kind of time machine for pears - they leave the store in the dawn of adolescence, but they appear in my fruit bowl in the twilight of senescence.

I have issues with lots of fruit texture, too. Pears are gritty. Bananas--ugh, just can't deal with those at all. Plums, nectarines, grapes, blueberries, and strawberries can all be OK. Apples sometimes. Some melons. I think what's hard for me about eating fruit is that, unless you put it on cereal (or make it into a dessert), it's like, "OK, I'm gonna eat this piece of fruit now!" While veggies are much easier to just incorporate into a meal, at least for me. Like pasta with peppers and mushrooms (or broccoli), for example.

I love fruit -all fruit. I can't think of a fruit I don't like. I eat tons of fruit every day - it is nature's candy. Just plain - an apple, orange, plum, bowl of any berries, all melons etc. I don't really like most fruit cooked or messed with - just plain -sometimes with a teaspoon of balsamic vinegar on it.
I also often eat raw vegetables like carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, turnips, peas etc just as snacks or dessert.
