I'm so glad you're enjoying them and that it's bringing up good memories for you! :) eElizabeth O Dulembahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07255495706124193452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34170571.post-61004569551163086412015-08-28T19:11:36.568-04:002015-08-28T19:11:36.568-04:00I agree, our abundance of choices in the US can be...I agree, our abundance of choices in the US can be detrimental to our mental health. ;)<br />It pains me to realize, I've forgotten so much of the daily life things, like grocery shopping. I do remember going more often and getting less (mainly because I lived with 3 there people and our storage space was limited)—but you're right, I didn't have a car and I couldn't just drive off and load up with supplies! I wasn't journaling regularly back then and I don't think blogs had hit it big yet, so it's just lost. It's really amazing how you're documenting and sharing it all. Thanks!<br />-m.melinda beavershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13925530501734983654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34170571.post-72855066598143742372015-08-28T08:29:10.897-04:002015-08-28T08:29:10.897-04:00Indeed Lynne!

Of course, the directive was in French and I missed it. He about had a heart attack when I picked up an avocado to see how ripe it was! :) eElizabeth O Dulembahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07255495706124193452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34170571.post-9090924375084751032015-08-28T07:59:27.881-04:002015-08-28T07:59:27.881-04:00Watch your head, Stan.

When we were in Spain and France and arrived in a new village that would be my first question. Jim doesn't like olives. so one day I went nuts at the olive stall. A little of this one and that one. There were so many to choose. I ate them for 2 wks. The vendors are so proud of their produce, that you only see perfect fruit or vegs. No bumps from long distance travel or storage. Each item was perfect and each vendor was proud of their products.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09164825917999659866noreply@blogger.com
