I went to the doctor and got my flu shot on the weekend. He was suffering from seasonal allergies himself. I told him to take Vitamin D tablets as they are finding out that it strengthens the immune system. Like a lot of people he thinks he gets enough of it from being in the sun for a little bit every day. But I think I might have convinced him it's worth a try. Then we laughed at the irony of me advising the doctor! I've been seeing him for over 20 years.
M and I had breakfast from the Whole Foods breakfast bar on the weekend. This combination worked out to about $6 or $7 each including coffee. The coffee is dark and strong like at Starbucks, even the light one. But it is fair trade. We split a croissant. It was delicious. The sausages are nitrate free and the bacon was awesome, not to mention the bread pudding!!
I took Kathy's advice and we shopped the sales afterward. She said their stuff on sale is worth it. We got some pancake mix, chips, some chicken pot pies, some lean ground beef and some organic grapes. We don't believe in organic, but that is all they have I think.
Look at these cute signs they painted all over the parking lot, on the asphalt!

Sounds like a good outing! Glad your doc has a sense of humour! Valerie
Thanks for the nice link!
You should try the Whole Foods store label items. Their olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and maple syrup is cheaper than any other grocery store.
I still wish I had a whole foods down the road. Mine is in the next town over.
I did a post about Whole Foods in Hawaii for my blog several years ago and managed to take some photos of the food and the sstore. As I was shooting, a clerk told me that photograqphy was strictly prohibited, so I stopped and put my camera away. Don't know why the store won't allow it, and I still don't understand that rule.
thanks for the warning Gigi, luckily nobody said anything to me, I won't take any photos in store just to be sure.
I rarely have a "complete" breakfast these past few days until I saw your photo and reminded myself to really eat more in the breakfast.
My mom suffers from allergies too and I'll advice her to take vitamin D. I hope it'll work for her :)
that does look like a great breakfast!! I have never saw signs in a parking lot like that, great idea!!
I have started a new blog, maybe you will come see me,
OH yum! We love Whole Foods, though we do not have one in town:-( I love their parking lot art/signs/statements:-)
Laurie can u tell me where to find your blog please?
Oh, I've found your link, never mind! Welcome back to blogland!
I love these parking art signs Christine!
You certainly gave your doctor some very good advice Christine and yes I love the irony.
I have been taking Vitamin D tablets for a few years now on the advise of my doctor even though I live in a very sunny climate.
Love the signs on the asphalt.
Hugs
