So to fight this…

Ok, so to fight this impending cold/virus/whatever.. I decided to load drink a big glass of some of the fancy juice in the fridge.
Opened the door.
I have a tiny little bit of Green Power and a pint bottle of Mango/anti-oxidant (deep orange). Those two colors blended together? Makes a khaki colored fruity [...]

Damn

That slightly sore ache in the lymph nodes in my throat. A headache that has lingered for 2 days. That “not right” stuffiness in the head.
Feels like the start of a killer late summer cold. If I had a mosquito bite, I’d probably add West Nile.
Excuse me while I mega=dose on Vitamin [...]

One thing about this walk, it struck me why [...]

I marinated the boobs in lemon juice with some salt and paprika added. Then saute’d. After deglazing the pan with a little chicken stock, I added a spoonful or two [...]

Cute Shoes

I’ve written before that I one really bad toe. The bone spurs on my left “big toe” double the size of the joint, which makes it really hard to buy shoes. Especially cute shoes. To control the pain in the joint, I must wear unbending soles with good arch support and designed [...]

Pit. Full. Stop.

Saturday afternoon I headed up to Sacremento for my friend Clara’s 50th birthday party. (fabulous, BTW). The line at the local gas station was 5 deep, I had 120 miles of gas in my tank, so I struck out knowing I’d want to stop along away the way.
Up near Vacaville I pulled off [...]
