Lunch in Seguin

Pat and I drove down to Seguin and Geronimo to check out some of the antique shops. We had lunch at the Court Street Coffee shop. It was our first time there, so we got some good advice from a group of nice women who eat there regularly. And it turns out I wasn’t the only vegetarian in the place: two of the women were vegetarian! I’m definitely going back. Good company and good food; it just doesn’t get any better.

Baking My Own Chips

Baking my own chips, from corn tortillas made without oil. Why? Because it’s hard for me to find corn chips without oil. At 120 empty calories per tablespoon, oil is something I’m trying to avoid. It seems, ahem, that the older I get, the more sensitive my body is to what I put in it. (Surprise!)

I’d rather not give up chips and salsa. That idea is more drastic than baking my own chips. So I’ll bake my own for a while, and see how long that effort lasts.
