Joe~I agree with you about feeling better when eating non-processed foods. Being on dialysis, I have to be even more careful, and there a lot of foods that I cannot eat anymore, or only in very small quantities. So it is far easier to prepare most of my meals from scratch. The heavily processed and fortified (supposedly they put back in what they processed out) tends to clog up the works- so to speak. It really doesn't take that much longer to prepare your meals from real fresh food. I saw scrambled eggs and bacon/sausage frozen- just have to pop in the micro-wave. How hard is it to fry, boil, or poach an egg?

Greger, you ever grow garlic or ginger root here in Florida?

It's too warm down here for most varieties of garlic. I've researched it a little bit and there are two varieties that would do okay here. There might be a few more that would work up north where you are. So far I don't know how I'd get my hands on the right kind of garlic to start with.
It's too cold here for ginger, I think. I've never really looked into growing it. I know a place that often has big fresh looking ginger root, maybe I'll try planting some just to see.
Good coffee, good weed, and time on my hands...

Thanks, Joe. It was the Creole and Artichoke varieties I was thinking of. Sounds like the Creoles might do best. I'll bookmark this and order some Cuban Creoles sometime in the fall if it's available.

Salad and tilapia fillets last night for Mr. and Mrs. Haas.
Probably some kind of fish tonight too, unless I decide to take her out and let the kids fend for themselves.
They're on some sort of kick about not liking our favorite restaurants - they're grown and know how to cook!
Besides, Mrs. Haas is a very fun date :-)
