The title of this blog post is a bit misleading. I’ve actually gone more than 30 days without eating veggies (more like 60 days), but that’s neither here nor there. If you would have told me several years or even several months ago that the human body could survive just fine without vegetables, I would… Read more

I think I’m over the whole New Year’s Resolution phase of my life. When I was much younger I’d start the year with a laundry list of resolutions and never get further than 30 days in sticking with them. Sadly, I’m not unique in this practice. I believe it was a couple of years ago… Read more

The reason I haven’t written is that I had nothing to say. Also, I’ve been busy with a host of other projects. One of my other projects… Read more

My birthday gift to myself was a large annoying eye floater, a few flashes and not so clear vision. What was going on? I turn 60 and WHAM! My body starts to give me the blues! At first, I thought the floater was an annoying bug that kept following me. After all, I was sitting… Read more

I have two gardens.  One is a raised bed garden out in the yard and the other is a container garden on my back deck.  The one on my back deck gets more TLC than the one in the yard. Since the container garden is right outside of the kitchen it’s easy to tend to… Read more

I’ve written more than once about the benefits of bone broth. Aside from being delicious, it’s healing. I’m writing about it again today to encourage you to keep the bone broth fat.
