This mid-morning, we three went to the DeCa Commissary Store in Moffett Field, CA for, what would be the first, healthy grocery shopping! I picked bags of spinach, spring vegetables, hearts of Romain lettuce, fresh-picked vine tomatoes, bean sprouts, brussel sprouts, green beans, and artichoke hearts for our salad. I served those for lunch today and it was filling.
Here is my simple recipe:
- Romain lettuce
- Spinach
- Spring veggies
- One cherry tomato
- One green olive
- One slice of red bell pepper
- One slice of celery
- One cucumber
- One palm-sized (blue-colored) bowl, which is about one to two cups, just big enough for the size of my stretched out stomach inside.
And about one hour or so ago, the twosome dropped over unexpectedly and the girl brought over Maw’s request (via my cellphone call last night) for spinach dip from Costco, along with white bread with whole garlic cloves. I was embarrassed to be in my short-like underwear, similar to what her Paw used to wear back in Vietnam, when I answered the door.
Of course, the boy was in a hurry to re-charge the girl’s failed battery and we didn’t expect them to stay. That’s what family is all about: pop-overs. We won’t request grocery runs that frequently. I told them call the main number for rides in case of emergency.
