Still no word from cousin #3 and still nothing going on.
There was a big family gathering fairly close to me yesterday. I'm not part of the family by blood; but my husband was. I was a little hurt that I wasn't invited.
Found out I just can't eat regular Breyer's Ice Cream. Even with taking 4 dairy pills instead of 3....it was a no go. I will have to go back to Breyer's Oat Milk Cookies 'n Cream Ice Cream. It was really good; but Walmart only carries one flavor.
Breakfast - PB&J sandwich
Lunch - PB&J sandwich, chips, Breyer's Rocky Road Ice Cream
Dessert/Snack - Banana chocolate chunk muffin
Dinner - Chicken egg rolls
What did you eat yesterday?
Did you do anything exciting over the weekend?

@LindaOHio you are family and if they don't see it that way, then they are mean and unloving.

@LeaPea2417 I agree, it's not because her husband is no more that she is not part of the family.

Sorry to hear that you weren't invited, that would be hurtful. And sorry about the ice cream. Hopefully they will carry more in the future of the one you can have.

The only ice cream (well, gelato technically) that I can eat without problems is Talenti. At least from the options I can buy at the grocery store. I have found in the past that I can eat ice cream from Coldstone Creamery without any issues. Kind of makes me wonder if the stuff they sell is really ice cream! lol

@LindaOHio I've had Silk ice cream before, I can't remember if it used almond milk or oat milk, but it wasn't too bad at all.

@moffittjc Breyer's makes an oat milk cookies 'n cream ice cream which is very good. I wanted to order some; but it was out of stock.

I can eat a Walmart brand ice cream bar. There probably isn't any cream or milk in them!!! The oat milk ice cream is Breyer's; and it's quite good.

I am so sorry you were not invited, gotta hurt. Our Walmart doesn't sell the kind of ice cream I like. Banana Pudding.

Yes, I'm just disappointed that I wasn't even considered. I've never heard of banana pudding ice cream.

Yesterday was Taco Bell, steak and eggs, and Cheerios. That is a shame they didn't invite you, when they know you are alone.

I have had a taste for pizza for a year. Maybe cousin #3 will make the one in my freezer.

Uhm... if it is a family gathering and your hubby was part of the family, then you don't NEED an invitation... You show up if you feel like it... You're family by marriage.
That's a shame that Walmart doesn't carry more flavors of the ice cream you can eat... Did you check their website and see if you could have it shipped to you instead of buying it through the Walmart closest to you? They will deliver stuff that the store doesn't have in stock straight to your house. (We can't get deliveries like that here because our city is too small for the service but you don't live in a small city.)
I ate a chicken salad sandwich for breakfast, had chicken fries and steamed mixed veggies for lunch and ate a sausage, egg and cheese croissant for supper last night with an ice cream cone for dessert.

I didn't find out about it until yesterday; and then I saw the pix on Facebook this morning. As far as the ice cream goes, the one flavor will be fine. I shouldn't eat so much ice cream anyway. Your meals sound good.

@LindaOHio Ahh... I see... Do you normally talk to his family so they can let you know about stuff like the family gathering? If not, you may need to reach out to them more often... They're still family even if your hubby is gone now.
I need to stop having an ice cream cone every day, too. That's too much sugar...

@LindaOHio Then I don't understand, either... Cousin #2 should regard you as family.

Oh Linda
That's awful that you were not invited to the family gathering.
You were married into that family for a long time..
It's sad nobody thought about you.

@Ineeddentures Cousin #3 said it really wasn't a family get together for OUR family. The cousin had it for her family and one of her friends. How cousin #2 got invited I don't know.

Sorry you can’t eat ice cream. I can eat ONE yogurt with no problem, but TWO will get my stomach hurting.
Chicken taco salad for lunch and a visit with LooeyVille, yogurt for snack, strawberry sorbet for fruit, Boca burger and potatoes O’Brien for dinner with a fiber bar.

The cookies 'n cream oat milk ice cream is really good...Breyer's. It's the only flavor that Walmart carries in the oat milk.

Lots of quiet over there. It's almost eerily quiet for me too listening to your personal quiet. lol.
For dinner we made teriyaki marinated pork steaks on the grill with a salad and macaroni and cheese on the side. Very good eats, but honestly...we're saladed out now, and so salad fixings will be off the list for at least a couple of weeks.
