I had an Autumn Glory apple. They were on sale for less than half price plus I had a coupon that was good if I bought over 1 pound. I only bought 2 apples and they weighed 1.33 pounds. It's a hybrid of Fuji and Golden Delicious apples and they're huge. I measured one and it was 3 1/4" wide and 3 1/4" tall. It was so big I couldn't open my mouth far enough to bite into the side. I had to start on top and it wasn't easy. Now my jaw hurts and feels like I tried to unhinge it like a snake. It was so big it started turning brown by the time I worked my way around it. I think I'll slice the other one in half. I ate everything except the stem and 2 seeds. The rest of the seeds were the size of the period at the end of this sentence. I thought it was some kind of seedless mutant until I got to the last 2 bites. They supposedly are "very sweet, firm flesh with hints of cinnamon and subtle notes of caramel." Mine was sweet and juicy and filled me up enough to not want to eat the other one too. The picture below is life size.

Penne pasta with plenty of sauce and a ridiculous amount of Parmesan cheese for breakfast. I need to eat more Parmesan cheese before it gets moldy like the last bowlful.

I got this in an email from my favorite burger joint today. It's a good day for donuts but no thanks.

I had an apple. It was glorious. And it only had 2 seeds. Maybe that's normal for this variety, but most apples have 1 or 2 seeds in each of the 5 seed pockets.

"Transparent bacon" here at the hotel I've been in the last 10 days in West Texas....

Got that beat: Junk-food snacks, vending machine crap, and hospital food.

Spekulatius cookies, AKA speculaas or speculoos. Good until 04/04/2018. Good right now.

Stouffer's single serving lasagna with meat (made the mistake of getting the cheese-only version once...blechhh).
It's pretty good for oven-ready food.
In my personal opinion it's as good, flavor-wise, as some I've had in restaurants...... including Olive Garden (IMHO their food is good but way overrated).

Lunch.  Grass fed beef cheese burger with romaine lettuce and whole wheat bread.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster
