THE FRESH DIET GIVES ME A RARE GIFT

Because THE FRESH DIET provides all my meals and snacks for the day, it leaves me with a lot of leisure time to pursue other interest. No more menu planning, no more grocery shopping at various places looking for special ingredients for recipes, no food prep, no cooking, no baking and best of all no more clean up and scrubbing pots and pans. WHEW! I'm already tired just thinking of all I use to do!
I thank THE FRESH DIET for giving me a rare gift.... LEISURE.
I've been able to pursue lots of hobbies as well as spending more time doing other things I love to do .

        WALKING THE HARBOR WITH LAURENCE AND NIKKI
               GOING TO THE LA JOLLA COVE WITH GRANDKIDS
          TAKING MY DAUGHTER AND GRANDKIDS TO THE BEACH PIER


          CHECKING OUT THE PELICANS ON THE PIER




I CAN GO TO THE AQUARIUM BECAUSE TFD HAS DINNER READY!


                                              WOW! I'M HUNGRY!


                                             BACK TO THE BEACH


                 OR THE ZOO...OOPS THIS IS AN OLD ONE!
THE FRESH DIET GIVES ME MORE TIME TO MEET WITH FRIENDS.
YOU CAN SEE ME IN THE HAWAIIAN DRESS CENTER ROW LEFT.


THE FRESH DIET ALWAYS HAS THE TASTIEST DESSERTS! NO BAKING FOR ME.

Since THE FRESH DIET does so many chores for me I can spend time making all sorts of crafts, painting being one of them:



WATERCOLOR AND GREETING CARDS ARE A GOOD PASTIME.


BIRDHOUSES IN ACRYLICS ARE SO MUCH FUN!


            HAND PAINTED CLAY POTS ARE HANDY.









LOOKING AT ALL THIS WORK I DID WORKS UP AN APPETITE. HERE'S A PEEK AT WHAT IS WAITING FOR ME FOR DINNER FROM THE FRESH DIET.
One of my favorite meals. WALNUT CRUSTED CHICKEN APRICOT ROULADE with SOUTHWESTERN CORN SAUTE and SAUTEED KALE. That Chicken actually taste like dessert! Kale is one of my favorite veggies and THE FRESH DIET CHEFS know not to overcook veggies ever.
When I say that THE FRESH DIET gives me more time on my hands, I mean it. What was I thinking when I actually started painting rocks that I gathered from the beach! Would you say I have too much time on my hands?





HERE'S THE PROOF OF TOO MUCH TIME ON MY HANDS. I actually painted my own eye...geesh! Then some rocks to look like Easter Eggs!


NOW, I'll show you some more productive pastimes....beautifying my yard.









When it's time for dinner, I think I'll sit in the gazebo and enjoy my FRESH DIET meal as well as the fruits of my labor, while I'm waiting for the sun to set.

  2. hahahaha!!! Thank you,"Sis Boom", I'm really just an amateur, but I have fun doing all these. I actually held a mirror in my hand, the whole time I was painting my eye on that rock!! It wasn't as easy as it may look. I was trying to get it exact in shape and colors.
    If you e-mail me a close-up photo of your eye, I MAY be able to do it......if you're a good boy...hahaha
