Happy Thursday!

Today is mammogram day...fun fun...but it is one more item on the healthy lifestyle to-do list. So its gonna get done. Afterward I plan to go back to the grocery store to pick up food for the weekend. GoodMan and I are babysitting DS#6's kids while he and our DIL celebrate his birthday at a concert.

This is a big birthday month for our family. Grandson#8, Granddaughter#16, DS#6 and DIL#3 all have birthdays this week. We will have a birthday lunch on Saturday. Today I'll pick up supplies for everyone's favorite birthday foods.

Tomorrow I plan to drive downstate with GoodMan for his appointment with the ear specialist. He had issues a few years back (spinal fluid leaking from his ear - YIKES!) and since corrective surgery he has had some hearing loss and needs to check in with his specialist every six months. This is a total of 7 hours of dive time for this appointment.

The one positive thing about going downstate is we will have the opportunity to stop at a Whole Foods store (3 hours from home). Every time I go in there I walk around in a health food stupor. I have NO IDEA what to buy. I'd love some suggestions. What would be on your grocery list for Whole Foods if you could only stock up on that sort of thing every few months? GoodMan loves that place and would shop there all the time if we lived nearby. Before my new lifestyle change the only things that interested me were the cookies and desserts. He wants to pick up cereals for himself and probably some organic peanut butter and jelly. What would a person who is trying to eat more whole foods, less sweets, less meats, balanced carbs/proteins buy? Seriously, I need suggestions!

Make your Thursday thankful.

I would buy the raw natural almonds/walnuts/pistachios/pecans, Extra-Virgin Olive Oil, fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, and healthy no-cholesterol/no or low-sodium/gluten-free/no preservative bars for snacks--if there are such bars or close to it.

Thanks Encouraged ~ I'll have to check out the selection of snack bars. I'm finishing off the remainder of my lightly salted almonds (2 servings left) and then I plan to buy raw/unsalted from now on. I'll buy some organic fresh veggies and fruits, but not too many because they will spoil. Our local store carries a lot of organics too. I plan to look at Whole Foods to see if they have nice seafood too. Thanks for the suggestions!
