Today was the farmer's market - yay! I am a little trepidatious about going there because it can be a bit chaotic and prices aren't always labeled and I hate to ask and then not buy anything and I walk around the donut-like circle the stalls form trying to choose and decide and I have actually gotten so unsure in the past I've just bought some oranges and left without anything else.
This time I did really well, with no running away with my bags empty and most of my money unspent. I got a little jar of local bee pollen for $2.75, 7 huge heads of beautiful leafy lettuce for $1 each, 2 bunches of beets, a HUGE bunch of mint, HUGE bunch of basil, 2 asian cucumbers, a little basket of strawberries and maybe something else I'm forgetting. I may try to blend up the mint and basil (not together) with some water and freeze them, otherwise I don't think I can use that much fast enough.
I don't think my boyfriend likes my new schedule. I used to stay up late and he'd call me to say goodnight every night when HE was ready for bed - sometime between 10pm and midnight. Now I text or call him by 10:30 at the latest to say goodnight and he's a bit hard to reach. Maybe his phone isn't right by him, or he's hanging out with his family and he doesn't get my call or message until over an hour later. It's kind of funny because he always thought I stayed up too late, and now he's finding my going to bed at a "normal" time is what's really inconvenient. For me, I miss talking to him, but I don't miss spending up to two hours making sure I don't miss his "do you want to skype" text so that he ends up going to bed before I respond. I feel a little bad, though, that I have taken such pains for years to be there for his calls and he doesn't seem to do the same for me. I think if I missed his message/call because I was having fun hanging out with my family, he would feel bad and left out, too.
Today I had:
cucumber, strawberry, apple (good, but I really just wanted to eat the strawberries whole!)
celery-lettuce-orange-spinach
coconut water-lime (note to self: don't put the lime in the coconut)
green melon (nice)
I didn't have any of the honey today, which is probably good, but I did have some bee pollen (probably also good)
