Cheer Me Up

I’m feeling poopy. I probably continue to feel poopy unless someone does me a huge solid. I need to cheer myself up. I have decided to do one of my favorite things…. Cookout!

Now as a vegetarian folks be on it like there is no way I can get any good use out of my grill. I pity the closed minded. I use way less charcoal than the carnivores because my concern is only warmth and flavor. I don’t have to make sure the food is completely cooked through. That actually makes me wonder if I have the close minded gene lurking within. But that’s another blog. Here goes my tentative menu….

Portobello mushroom caps
Kebabs (Vidalia, mushrooms, mango, peppers, squash) in a jerk sauce
Spaghetti salad
Grilled Polenta
Berries
Sweet Tea
Leftover Mead (I need to make more)

You hungry yet?



Peace

Backsliding on Home

All right, all right….. I know I’m prolly setting myself up for failure. Especially since I’m about to go to Show & Prove; and y’all know how it’s done on vacation… But… I think…. I am going to get back on the “raw food” bandwagon. Two reasons. 1st reason: I feel guilty every time I put non-raw food in my mouth. And I try to rationalize it all out by eating a salad with it. Imagine how it all looks, BK (just an example. I don’t do fast food on the reg) veggie burger with cheese and all the fixins, onion rings (cause I only eat McDonald’s fries) a vanilla shake and a side salad. I rationalized that the fixins and the salad are raw and therefore count toward my goal of ‘high raw’. NOT. 2nd reason: And most importantly…. This morning I put on a dress that I couldn’t wear last summer. The dress was so tight I felt like a sausage in it. I almost gave it to Goodwill. But I wanted to wear a sweater today that I rigged last night and this dress was a good fit. I expected to have to wear al...

"I Itch"

I have eczema. I have had it since I was a small child. My mother reports I’ve been spotted since infancy. I remember getting in trouble on purpose just to get the beating that would satisfy the itching for a minute. That weirded my Ole Earth out. I remember one of my godmothers used to slather me with bacon grease. She swore that that would calm the lesions. It did to some degree. But the dog became very friendly afterward. I still have outbreaks. Most of the time it’s a small outbreak. 80% of the time it occurs only on my arms, legs, and back. But it can pop out anywhere. Don’t sleep on adult eczema. It can get really bad, disfiguring and incredibly painful. I put it, mostly, on the weather. I usually have outbreaks in the winter or if I go somewhere and the weather is distinctly colder than my regular climate. I ALWAYS get something in the winter time. Whether it be light patches just where my bra strap rubs against my skin or all over my body. It feels like little need...

Ooch-Ouch Girl

This is kind of pissing me off. Why can't I cut and paste from Word to here? There goes an hour I can't get back. Anyway.... I did it. I have begun the excercise portion of my healthy makeover. And I'm hurt all over. It's been 11 days since I began to truly eat better. (I sould like a recovering crackhead don't I?) I recognize that a good diet is just not enough. I plan to be a look looking old woman. And I don't want to be on any long term medications. Hell I don't want to be on ANY meds. I already eat a pretty healthy diet, yet I have some issues. So I suppose I have to move something. I don't work on Fridays, and I don't go to church on Sunday's. I've chosen those days to walk at least 3 miles in the park. This park is cool. It has walking and hiking trails. There is a lot to see and be entertained while you walk. I want to be active at least 3 times a week; so Tuesday and Wednesdays are days earmarked to do something additi...
