I tried Jicama for the first time. I've been wanting to try it for awhile now, but it is somewhat difficult to find in my area plus it's pretty pricey. I finally found it on sale this week at my local grocery store. It's pretty damn good. I like the texture and the crunch of it. I've tried it raw and cooked. I'm definitely preferring it cooked.

I discovered a new produce store and greenhouse yesterday. I was really excited about it since they seem to have quite a few things . I was super excited about the beets they had because I've been out for a couple days now and I didn't want to pay the insane price the grocery stores charge. I ended up getting $2 worth and cooking them as soon as I got home. Unfortunately they suck. They're really gross and nothing like the beets I get from my usual produce place. I haven't tried the rest of the veggies I got. I'm kind of scared to. Eh, at least now I know that place sucks and to keep driving whenever I pass it again.
Yesterday I made my own guacamole for the first time! Tasty!
Today I finaly told a friend to back off with her nagging about the proteins. I really couldn't take it anymore, and I'm very bad at telling people when I get sick tired of things. Just "suffer in silince". But now I was a good boy, and deserved a treat. So I made a smoothie.

I tried playing two trumpets at once.
They played, but it sounded terrible. Something I could work on, I suppose.

Soooooo...how are we all doing with trying new things? C'mon, be brave. You only live once.
This past week I tried something new: Chocolove's milk chocolate bar with salted peanuts. I liked it. I would buy it again.
Other than that, I haven't been very good at trying something new. I must step up and get going on it.

Probably.. I'm just too lazy to post here/bump

Recently I have tried tempeh, which I wasn't fond of before, but now I love it. I also tried sweetened vanilla almond milk in my coffee, but I didn't like it. I prefer the unsweetened. I had to try it, because it was all my mom had in the fridge when I went to visit.

Same here. I've also tried black rice which I'm really enjoying and I've given turnips another shot. Previously I wasn't a fan, but my local store always has them marked down and I have trouble passing up good deals. I'm glad I gave them another try. I'm loving them roasted. I've also tried this rose lemonade:
ETA: My eye dr also has me trying a new type of contacts. These new contacts are made with silicon where as my old ones that I've worn for years were plastic. The silicon ones are supposed to be better because they allow your eyes to breath more. They are a lot thinner and are a little more difficult to get out, but other than that they seem okay. I just hope they aren't more vulnerable to rips since they are so thin.
OMG, I didn't even know about this place. I could hit it on the way to Rhode Island. It wouldn't be too big of a detour. Thank you, KLS!!If you ever get a chance to go to the Shoreline diner and vegetarian enclave in Guilford, they have a really good Tempeh Reuben...then you have to have the Vegan Napoleon for dessert.

Slept naked for the first time. Feels awesome. I never wanna sleep with clothes on again lol
And as long as I have a door that locks I never intend to
As long as you don't turn into a popsicle during the winter.
I'll probably just bring up my small heater in the winter
Maybe invest in an electric blanket. The bedrooms are upstairs, so being cold shouldn't be an issue. I think the townhouse has better insulation as well.
