Hello,
I got a hair cut shortly before going
to UT. Partly it was because my hair was getting long and partly because my
hair does not curl so much in UT. After being in the dryer air, I wished I had
had the stylist cut off some more hair. I have to confess that I like my hair
better in the Midwest summer where it is curled by the humidity. It certainly
makes it stay in place. Now that I am back in the Midwest my hair looks shorter
because it is curled up much tighter.
Leroy and I ate some peaches every day
that we were in UT. Mostly we had them on our morning oatmeal. It was great to
have them fresh and good right off the tree in the back yard. Some were not so
ripe when they fell off the tree, but we ate them anyway. Sometimes we also had
peaches combined with granola and plain yogurt which is a favorite snack or dessert.
We ate so much granola, as did some of Miriam’s family; I even made granola
twice in the week we were there.
Several people have asked what we made
with peaches. I believe they were a little surprised that we just ate them
fresh and never even talked about making anything that would require work or
sugar. Just give me fruit that has enough natural sugar and I am happy.
Today I made granola at home. Seems it
just doesn’t stop. The granola recipe that I use, I learned when Leroy was
going to seminary back in the 70’s. Talk about ancient history.
The granola recipe requires a cup of
honey. However, there are eleven cups of
dry ingredients so I think the honey is spread out quite a bit. Especially when
I have seen cookie recipes in which the amount of sugar and flour are equal the
granola seems not at all sweet.
