UPS Dave stopped again yesterday. This was more stuff from Amazon. I had
ordered some of my favs.... and also something new. Karen's Just
Veggies...
These are fresh grown and dried. No additives of any kind. Grown in
Westley, California. Really good for a snack. Or, they could be added to an egg
dish or soup. Dried peas, corn, carrots, bell peppers, and dehydrated tomatoes.
Also a good topping for baked potatoes.
You can check out the Just Veggies website, they also have dried
fruits...
Later dinner was reruns, chair, wine, and TV.
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Saturday. Ciao.
