April, glad your ankle is not sprained. Sorry about your scrape and bruise, though.
Judi, picking 5 lbs. of beans is a lot of work. I've never made yogurt but I hear it's easy. Your jicama hash browns sound yummy. I think people make hash browns with zucchini, too. I never could eat potatoes for breakfast--just not appealing to me, but this morning for breakfast I ate cold leftover fish with Old Bay seasoning and chili powder. I can't imagine those being appealing to anyone besides me, though.
Nobe, your report yesterday was great.
I'm headed for the thrift store. Somehow a screw (maybe one of DH's that was loose.
) got into the washer and tore holes in three of my "around the house and gym" T-shirts. I don't want to invest in brand new ones since I'm trying to lose weight. Hope to catch you all later tonight.

I'm doing well today but no exercise again. It's so freakin' hot here--again over 100 with the heat index--that I can't stand the thought of breaking into a sweat even from just exercising in my air conditioned living room. Yeah, I know it's an excuse, but I just can't bring myself to do it when the weather is hot and humid. Went out to the store and felt half sick just from walking to and from the car a couple hundred feet.
