Iain and I had some with our lunch and it is pretty good.
If you fancy trying your hand at it, here is the recipe:
Cheerios
Pretzels
Peanuts
Sunflower seeds
Season salt to taste
2 tbsps olive oil
Mix the dry ingredients together, then drizzle with oil and sprinkle on the seasoning. Mix well. Put in a single layer on a baking tray and bake at 275 for 10 minutes. (My house smelled like warm nuts afterwards!) Allow to cool and then store in airtight containers.
I get so bogged down by the things I don't do that I forget to be thankful for what I can do. For instance, I wanted to plant my daffodil bulbs in our flower bed today, so I cleared the weeds and started to dig. I got about 3 inches into the soil before hitting the plastic tarp the apartment people put down to suppress weeds. Not nearly deep enough for my bulbs. So, instead of being frustrated about that, I'm going to be thankful that I cleared away the unsightly weeds. Does anybody know if you can grow bulbs in containers?
So today I am trying to be diligent and to celebrate what I do accomplish. Because constantly feeling like a failure gets awfully darn old.

Apparently you can grow daffodils in one and two gallon pots. This is the reference:

There is a Daffodil Society.
It's so easy to feel the weight of the things we can't do, but I'm glad you're celebrating the things you can. I'm rejoicing this week that I'm able to pick up my son after battling a back problem last week - simple but meaningful pleasures!
