croutons. I got it today and will make croutons tomorrow but it was still soft, so I cut off a bit and added butter just a few minutes ago. Yum.

Break em up in a bowl, cube the cheese, and add some chilli powder, or garlic powder. Munch, munch!

OK so Doritos aren't the more healthiest item. 😄
So I've switched to tostados. Maybe 1x month I'll have the doritos.

(I have veggies, fruit, etc so I don't lack for that, along with grains, beans, chicken, meat, eggs etc)

(And the odds usually are that she has)

If there was any left, be it apple, peach, nectarine, apricot or raspberry, there are heavy odds on there being less (including none) of it left by the time I get back to bed.

Hint to the health conscious: if you want to stay fit and watch your weight, do NOT marry a German master chef. If you do it anyway, don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Bought Mrs. JP a bowl (25) of a new flavor truffle: Dark Chocolate Mint

She says they're divine.

My favs: extra sharp cheddar, provelone (regular, and aged), mozzarella, parmesan, ricotta (on white pizza!), feta, manchego, blue cheese dressing.
Lots yuuums!

I don't get as much as I'd like. 😄

I made milk tea for Juan a big big event an hour ago. Fancy cup & saucer, ( I
told him that they were his cup always) and he had a pecan sandie cookie. Big stuff at age 2.

I had 3 pecan sandie cookies and a not fancy mug of decafe tea myself

I am a dark chocolate aficionado from childhood!
Of course, I ate Hershey's ?Krackle - milk chocolate with rice krispies, mc w peanuts, etc during the Halloween candy runs, but then they had Special Dark Chocolate. It probably wasn't that dark, but in comparison...it was like..."Oooo", what's this?!
Graduated to Almond Joy, Butterfingers, Mounds, York, later Snickers, too, when the others weren't around.

Anyway, by my mid 30's Reeces PB cups were my usual thing, too.
Before Trader's there was Lindt Dark chocolate varieties!

When I started going to Trader's in my ?late 50's - some years in they came up with the dark choc/PB cups. Oooo!
Was a bit unusual at first, but not for long! 😄

For which my pain will just laugh at. So tonight, I am topping it off with a Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale 14% alcohol.
That might numb the pain enough to fall asleep.
