A GI for his cutie pie is not

Quick heat blast predicted for our neighborhood, into the nineties, peaking on Thursday and becoming tolerable again just in time for the weekend.
I'm hoping this is going to be like last summer, where there was a spate of inhospitable weather very early and then the rest of the summer was more pleasant.

I'm trying to get back into salads, as a way to increase my intake of raw vegetables and fruits.
I bought more of those baby yellow squashes, with plans to sautee them or something, and wondered if they were tasty before you cooked them. So I'll try cutting a small slice tonight. In the meantime, more carrots (very little nutrition but they make it sweet) and probably white mushrooms for the protein, and broccoli and maybe green beans or something. I should have done more shopping at the farmers' market but I'm not very good at planning ahead.

Swee' p'tayta!

I do not recall who first pointed me to the sweet potato--I thought it was the housemate, but when Amanda reposted it and I mentioned it, she didn't recall anything about it.
