    I smell poop somewhere around the house! And I can't find it!

    Where the *kitten* is it?!?!?!

    Omg what kinda house do you live in?

    I spent 5 hours emptying, cleaning and reorganizing all the cupboards and drawers of my pantry area. Now I'm having wine and waiting for pizza cause I earned it

    Lol I live next to a farm in the country. I had the windows open.

    I hope everyone has a great Saturday!

    Shut the windows!!!
    Nice grapes btw

    I live in a city and we have a problem with skunks. They're super adorable but every other day we're greeted to the smell of a skunk that has sprayed. We had one in our front yard when hubs for home from work the other day. I'm pretty sure it's destroying our back deck but we will get to that

    We seem to get a bad infestation of skunks every other year. The summers flip-flop between skunks and coyotes. It’s the ciiiircle of liiife 😂

    We've had foxes in our area too.
    But wow the skunks are crazy. There's also a family of raccoons living in the trees between us and the backyard neighbours. They often go walking along the fence and are super cute. They were staring at my last night

    The grapes are coming in nicely!
    Let's make some wine yall! 🍷

    What kind of grapes are those? How many feet do you grow? I just have table grapes, but a friend has Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, and Marechal Foch. I help him some years, and often the wine is REALLY good.

  • I’m 53 but still very much middle aged! I don’t have grays or wrinkles yet and don’t take any type of prescriptions except a mild dose for high blood pressure that my doctor says I can get off of if I lose weight. ( HBP is due to excessive weight gain). My plan is to get healthier and even younger looking over the next year. I am perfectly healthy and plan to stay free of prescriptions and sickness for as long as possible. Let’s encourage each other!

    By the way, I have a question I asked on the appropriate forum but no one answered it; maybe someone here is up to date with nutrition facts and figures?

    I ate a pile of broccoli the other day and when I entered it into mfp, I got a notice that it was high in protein. I had no idea. So, my question is, is the protein we get from a dark green vegetable like broccoli the same as we get from chicken/fish/etc? I haaaaate lentils and am not a big bean fan but if I can substitute some meaty meals with broccoli, that would be better for the planet, apparently. But if there are different ways our bodies use different protein sources, I'd like to know.

    Thank you!

    Hello, vegan here. I would recommend you eat a variety of plant proteins. I see you don't like lentils or beans, but have you tried tempeh at all? I eat it a lot and if you have a scroll trough some vegan food blogs or even just Google it then you will find tonnes of recipes on how to marinate or spice it - maple syrup and tamari with garlic and ginger or in coconut aminos or in peanut butter and soy sauce, etc. I also often add a block if tofu to homemade miso soup. Those are all great plant-based proteins. And pre-workout I sometimes make a chocolate protein smoothie with soy milk and frozen bananas. But yes, broccoli rocks! 😚🌱

    Hey @pinaycoco -- I don't think @JenniferM1234 is checking back here. She was asking about how our bodies use protein and asked about different kinds of proteins. I tried to tell her about amino acids and essential amino acids and heard only crickets. You can absolutely get your complete proteins from plant sources, but you have to pay attention. Then there's that B vitamin thing. A friend has been vegan so long he can no longer process B12 through his diet so has to get injections. Fortunately his partner is a naturopath so she gives him a poke when needed.
