who knew it would taste good?
ok...so, last time i was at the grocery store, i was inspired to get some raw sugar snap peas to eat in my lunches with some kind of protein-ish kind of dip. i had hummus the past couple days, but i didn't really like the way it was tasting with the sugar snap peas. i'll stick with carrots for the hummus from now on ( Read more... ) -

i had my teary moment this morning when it really hit that things can and are changing in america, but that's not what this post will be about.
