I just heard something interesting on kpbs. It is a little minute long segment between shows called "The Bite". If you have a can of chickpeas with the liquid you can drain the liquid and use it as an egg substitute. 1 tbsp for a yolk, 2 tbsp for a white and 3 tbsp for a whole egg. The host said it can be used in practically any recipe, cakes, brownies, etc. The liquid from other beans might work as well, but he just talked about chickpeas.2

@rwood566 That's really cool - thanks for the info! I knew that you could make a meringue substitute with the liquid if you whip it up - I think it's called aquafaba - but I didn't know you could use it as anything else.2 -
Still in Florida. Hiked a half mile in the woods to dive a spring. That cavern swallowed up all light. I thought I had gotten over my fear of the dark.... Nope this place brought that all back.42 ft down and my light did not illuminate the walls or anything. It was a black void. I swam up to the only thing my light touched which was a ledge at 40 ft. My husband realized he lost the wall and me at 53 ft. I could see him but he couldn't see me. He did the same thing I did he swam toward the surface. I couldn't believe it but it was too dark for him, too. So I don't feel bad about myself for tapping out.
Nsv, in years past I wouldn't have made the hike with my gear. Also my wet suit is actually getting easier to get on. 20 min of diving and 2 miles walked.
One more day in my happy place.
@peng123 We visit the Florida Springs around Homosassa and Crystal River. They congregate in winter and early spring in the springs to stay warm. They have no fat on their body and will freeze to death in water cooler than 70 deg f. That is why they are my spirit animal. I want to be solid muscle 💪.5 -

Good morning!
I've been a little under the weather with my ulcerative colitis flaring up lately. But I'm so excited it is the weekend. Headed to the hot springs for an overnight with a friend. Hope to get a hike in today. This should be a good mental reset!

Back from the Galapagos Islands! Amazing trip!!
I'm up 1.2 lbs since leaving, however I suspect it was gained in the week that I've been back (-:
