    Low carb

    Salad dressing, I use some avocado oil mayonnaise and mix it with some chipotle peppers (canned in adobe) that I’ve liquidized in the blender. Makes a great dip too for chicken fingers, steak bites and meatballs.

    A disappointing 7.0. I’m doing a total reset as carbs have been creeping. Hubby finally got a diagnosis of his constant pain, polymyalgia…..hopefully the steroids work. Doc said he had quite a severe case. Most recent blood tests show his hyperthyroidism is gone! Wind has picked up here...
