Yes, the food stamps work!

Raw kale. I have no idea why this of all foods should seem so much like the food of angels, but raw kale (accompanied by a few raw mustard greens) is now sending me into fits of ecstasy. Words cannot express how good this tastes to me. My first full meal after going to the grocery store also includes catfish fried in olive oil, multigrain toast covered in the same olive oil, and no added salt at all.

I haven't any definite plans for how I'll be spending Christmas, but eating food that doesn't come out of a can will be cause enough for celebration.

Raw kale. Mmmm...

I have 60 a month worth of food stamps that I use each month at the food bank. I SO know what you mean about having fresh food to eat. We eat out of cans most of the time.

Canned foods are good and convenient, but they do get tiring after a while! I'm going to have to brave the Christmas Eve crowds just so I can get more kale and some berries. Oh, I think I want some eggnog too!
