Great!!! Now I know what to plug into the GPS!!!



you crack me up!!!! @ColoradoPip too.

I’m a Tillamook snob now JK. Sort of. I still eat deli cheese and regular ol’ butter and stuff but other packaged cheeses taste like chemicals to me now.

@Beer can @MROO @sourland I may have to go to Friendly’s in you guys’ honor now!

ETA: and I may have to try some organic foods now haha

I LOVE me some good cheese

I thought Tillamook was good until I tried organic cheese, ice cream, and other products. Comparing organic cheese to non-organic is like comparing gelato to ice cream. There is no comparison!! I can't go back now!

Brand doesn't even seem to matter, I am convinced it tastes 10000000000% better!! I used to (in the 80s/90s) eat cheese by the chunks, then over time I didn't care for it so much, then I noticed my digestion system wasn't appreciating cheese (among other, especially dairy based, things). Some pizza places are much worse than others, for instance.

One day I decided to try a certified USDA organic "diet". I say "diet:" because I love junk food and there's plenty or organic chocolate, and that opened my eyes to a lot. One thing I came to realize is that over time the standard food (or you might say the standard of food) has changed and with it, the appeal to me. I feel like the organic certified food, while not perfect, more closely resembles the food that I grew up eating. It sure tastes like it!!

The real thing that hit home though. I could eat as much cheese, ice cream, and other products that formerly caused me great pain, with zero issues. I mean zero. I've been amazed with the results. My body is processing all the food much more efficiently and I never can't think of a single time I've had digestion issues since making the change.

Anyways...longer story short, I tried the organic cheese and started eating chunks of it again. It's so delicious and tastes nothing like the other cheeses. I will do everything I can to stay with certified organic food.

Challenge accepted. Next trip to the store I will be looking for some good organic cheese

Speaking of digging... I heard this shovel is the bomb from fellow rose people. Terrific for digging planting holes.
Anyone try it yet?

Those are AWFULLY funny-lookin' chickens!

I suspect their daddy must of snuck over from the neighbor's.
They did hatch outta extra large white eggs though.

Somehow I think you were sitting on your porch watching, sipping a beverage, and getting a kick out of the whole thing.

That I would not do. I would not let you waste your energy.....especially when there are wild waddle tots needing taming.

You don't know the rose people I hang out with...some of them have perfect soil. Paid a lot of money for it to be delivered too.

Actually I'm hearing from rose people that it does indeed work well in clay and harder soils. Digging holes for trees and roses has always been a challenge even in ok soil so I'm always looking for something to make it easier. Besides paying someone else that is...

Now the part I call BS on is the woman who moved 20 roses, they survived, and she felt 10 years younger. Yeah ok. I got some ocean front property in Arizona to sell you...

Ok, this girl is tuckered out from all that digging and pulling weeds.
Nighty night all.

I am out too.....in 10 minutes when this tv show ends.

Sleep well everyone.
