This is why we donate blood regularly. We go, as a family, every 3 months. We used to go every 8 weeks, but Angeliese and I had trouble with our iron at that frequency. Turns out 4x per year is still considered a "frequent donor" for women. I love that they send an email and text to let you know when your donation is being utilized 💗
So this is your PSA, if you've been "meaning to" go donate blood, GO DO IT!

The Red Car Trolley at Buena Vista Street is closing permanently Feb. 8, 2025. I don't think we've ever ridden it... maybe once. So we had to make it happen this trip. 🚋 Super cute and really adds to the charm of Buena Vista St. But they are making room for a new attraction in Avengers Campus called Stark Flight Lab 🎉

My one Christmas craft I actually finished 🎅
I absolutely LOVE how it turned out! I saw it last year and thrifted rain boots sometime in the middle of the year to make this. The original video I saw, he used real branches and poured water in the boots. I love how it looked but was having a hard time sourcing real branches, so I grabbed a few fake (and sparkly ✨) pieces and "VOILA"! 🎄

This was interesting...

We're looking at whole house water filtration systems and the last guy that came out to give us a quote did a pH test on various waters while he was here.

It turns green/blue the higher the pH (the darker blue, the higher the pH).

We buy alkaline water from the Water Store. That's on the left.

The middle is our (very hard) tap water (more minerals cuz it's so hard, so darker blue).

The one on the right is the alkaline water I purchased from Trader Joe's, marked with a 9.5 pH!! It's so acidic, pouring the other water into it didn't change it, and pouring it into the other waters, made them acidic! He said "Don't drink that! Use it to water plants. Most plants love acidic water."

So, you might be paying extra for alkaline water, but you don't know what's happened to that bottle of water since it was bottled. How long has it been? Where's it been stored? Has it been sitting in heat? No guarantees for it to "stay" alkaline.

Friends who batch cook or meal prep, what does that entail for you? What kinds of things do you make ahead of time?

I'm compiling a master list that we can draw from weekly.

Thinking things like:
-roasting veggies, potatoes, tomatoes
-poaching and shredding chicken
-meatball/Burger patties
-egg bites
-oatmeal protein bites
-hard boiled eggs
-batch of tuna salad
-Cut up raw veggies

What else?

I don't think that word means what you think it means. 🤣 There was nothing E-Z about opening this bag of frozen strawberries from Costco ... except notice the scissors. That made it easy. Then once I cut into the "E-Z Tab Seal" there was no hope of this bag opening on that damn dotted line. And in the end, the zipper close thing was completely inoperable anyway 😡 I don't understand why packages are made like this ... Like containers with a plastic film sealing them (ricotta cheese comes to mind) with a pull tab that is completely useless because they are impossible to open without a sharp knife. Like, why bother?!? They coulda just used a regular bag, skipped the cost of that zipper close and their stupid tab, cuz I have to use a chip clip to close it anyway 🤦‍♀️
Is it just me? Can someone explain this insanity to me? 🤔
(Ok, I feel better now that I got that off my chest 😜)

This was so good with the chicken, I repeated it with shrimp. This time over napa cabbage [the checker at Trader Joe's asked the difference between that and regular cabbage... I was like "I dunno 🤷🏼‍♀️ but it's shaped like this: *does hands in a tulip kind of shape* and it's kinda curly at the edges. And the package says 'good for stir fry'... That's all I know. You now have the extent of my expertise on napa cabbage🤣". It was so yummy!
This'll be a staple in the repertoire for sure! I've decided one of the be habits I'll be adopting is meal planning. I don't really do that. I buy the basics when I shop, and then I kinda wing it when it's time to cook. I'm gonna make a list of my top 10-20 meals/dishes, those that are easy, healthy, and the family loves, and I'll draw from those. I figure I can still get creative and wing it and throw in extra stuff whenever I want, but this'll help keep us on track.
Do you meal prep? What does that look like for you? Does your family help? What are your best tips?

Costco crab. In the refrigerated section. I'm not sure if it's a seasonal thing. Like I said before, it's not cheap, but it's cheaper than, what I consider to be an inferior choice, at the grocery store. I bought 4 and stuck 3 in the freezer, cuz I know they're not around forever. 🦀
I did have to be careful not to accidently grab the Honey Smoked Salmon Spread, which I can't decide if it sounds good or gross. What do you think? 🤔
