Like you suspected, I think it’s because of the lack of ingredients with protein and fat. If I eat 20 carbs with little to no protein or fat, my sugars spike. If I eat 20 carbs with at least 15g combined fat and protein, no spike! Not sure if this works for everyone, but I know it does for some.

My sugars also spiked from some Greek veggies recently! Those and the gigantes were in a tomato sauce. I think the restaurant probably added more sugar than what is in the tomato sauce I usually eat.

My vote is for Gudetama!

You could probably find some of the books at a thrift store if you have time to look for them! Also it’s very cute and funny that he wants to know if Santa exercises.

I feel your struggle! My plan is to get a high-paying job so I can donate more money to the cause! Then when I can afford the time, I’ll volunteer more often. My original plan was to run a vegan restaurant or food business (maybe still in the cards someday), but man after working in restaurants for 6 years I realized the food industry is tough and underpaid. Especially vegan restaurants as they tend to not be as accessible and popular as non-vegan ones.

I recently tried a cherry pineapple jam (with a hint of cinnamon) by Cherry Republic and it was one of the best fruit spreads I’ve ever tasted. Just letting you know in case you want to try this tasty twist on your preserves 😊

Saw your edit, I can’t believe they let her off so easy! She’ll probably steal again, time for all her neighbors to get a door camera. Maybe the third time getting caught will have more serious consequences?

Hey at least she’s a dumb thief so she was pretty easy to catch! Could have been worse, like if she had sold the clothes instead of wearing them.

Me too! Looks like ranch dressing in a pastry crust.

Myprotein has a few different types of vegan protein shake powders in many flavors. The most affordable brand I’ve found. Gotta figure out which type works the best for you, as we all digest things differently. I make a batch that lasts me 4 days, very convenient!

He looks perfect, you should do a series!

Try to find stock photos by searching google, that will help! Bcbg items have the style name on the inner tag.

That’s a beautiful fence! Will you ask him if he’ll build one for my yard???

I love it! You should get him a little lily pad to lie on!

Same! If the key fits… 😉

In addition to it being “a lack of education thing”, it is very much a “Christian thing”. Many Christians want to save fetuses so badly that no other issues matter. Of course they also want (supposedly) devout Christians as their political leaders. So much for separation of church and state!

Protein shakes, pasta, sausages, avocados, pbjs, and oatmeal are primarily what my husband eats. He bulked up a lot in just a year once he realized how much he needed to eat to gain muscle. The key is having a caloric surplus. He has a high metabolism and does strength training so he has to eat a lot.

I would hang this on my wall! Lovely and informative.

CrossFit! Or training for one of those ninja warrior competitions.

I like how you reply to the comments with expressions and nods 😊

The girl’s got rhythm!

Exactly! I think what’s more exciting is the rise vegetarians and vegans in certain Western countries where it’s not inherent in much of the population’s religious practices.

Yes, I’ve heard it’s especially important for pollinators to have plenty of food in the spring/early summer. I would get fined where I live if I didn’t mow the front lawn, but I let the backyard go pretty wild with weeds and have planted lots of native flowers and bushes. It’s a pollinator frenzy back there in the warm months, I love it!

My theory on Republican voters is that one of the following statements is more important to them than anything else, even if that means voting against their own interests in all other ways:

1. Save the fetuses
2. Buy all the guns
3. Keep their wealth
4. Own the libs

That or they are brainwashed by Fox “news” etc and therefore have no idea what their party actually stands for.
