Though not completely clear the eye is almost clear of red so that, with the conclusion I don't need a pacemaker, health news is good!I I don't know how old that pepper plant is now---at least a few years--and still sprouting peppers, red, yellow and green! Thursday Allen I went to Tipico Cafe for lunch after shopping and, as always, it was good. Allen had the combo stirfry while I had the Ropa Veja. The next day, after seeing "Swan Song" it was Subways and though Allen had his usual meatball and and I had my usual turkey I made a mistake by ordering both on one of their new wrap breads which we both didn't particularly care for as it wasn't toasted nor did the wrap bread taste good--next week back to the garlic cheese bread! So far yesterday and today has been rain free and full of sun and now at 6 PM the sky is clear so we may not get those evening showers! Life is good!

Your health update sounds excellent. Good for you. And the food, as always, looks delicious. I like meatball sandwiches.

Trying something new sometimes isn't a big surprise. They should have toasted that wrap. Glad your eye is better , and no pacemaker!!!!
