If I’m mindful about my meal ( not reading or watching t.v. or listening to something), especially dinner, I find that I appreciate it more and don’t overeat .
My first spring salad will be from the arugula that volunteers in my garden paths , some B.C. greenhouse cherry tomatoes, and a vinaigrette made from my raspberry vinegar, garlic, and canola oil. Maybe I’ll sprinkle some new garlic chives on top.

Chair yoga!! What a great idea!! I am 81 and tend to not get enough exercise until gardening season so I need to learn more about chair yoga. Thanks! Love the live and look forward to it every week.
P.S.
Am doing an experiment with pieces of black/ gray/ tweed and coat weight wool cloth from the bottom of my stash. I laid newspaper, wool, and then pine needle/straw mulch out under my cedar hedge . My stash is taking up too much room in my box room, I’m never going to use it all , there are no hookers near me to give it to, and, if I admit it, I like hooking with yarn as I watch Deanne .If I get rid of some cloth I won’t feel guilty about using more yarn.

Good morning! How tall are Deanne’s loops?
I am addicted to hearts of palm too. They are great in a salad.

Deannes loops are roughly a 1/4 in high some are higher than others! I love them, I think I will check into the nutrition facts now!
