my jicama arrived

For a keto "apple" pie, you can't use apples: they're too carby. So your choices are chayote, jicama, or good old squash (zucchini). I ordered some jicama, and it arrived today. You can apparently store it in the fridge unpeeled for up to two weeks. If peeled, you can store it in water and eat it within three days. So keep that skin on!

While I plan on cooking some things tomorrow, including my Middle Eastern (Moroccan-inspired) chicken, I might not work on the pie until Sunday, then I'll bring it in on Monday, along with various keto breads (dog/burger buns and "white bread") and chaffles (keto waffles: cheese + waffle = chaffle). More on all of that soon. With pictures.

Off on a late walk now.
