I’m planning to take my extra to my office. Maybe save a little for my husband to take on his upcoming road trip.

The only surefire, complete avoidance method is to buy NO candy and on Halloween nite, turn all the lights out and hide in a back room. Which is no stinkin’ fun and gets you a reputation in the neighborhood of being “those people”...which may or may not be accompanied by eye rolling and/or pejorative swear words. 😛

So sorry you are going through that! I used to get migraines but don’t anymore. Is there anything you vvpcan take while on the prednisone? Feel better soon!

Does it freeze well?

This might sound silly, but do you knit? An article I read a couple of years ago recommended knitting as a stress reliever. The reason was that the repetition is soothing and apparently so is working with fibers. Plus you produce/create something useful/fun/beautiful. I find it also keeps my hands busy so I don’t eat and…

Feel better soon!

Bone broth is supposed to be good for skin, hair and nails. Lots of collagen protein, generally low in fat and calories. I'm try to drink it as a way to jump start my keto again. Did a "mini-fast" today where I drank 5 cups of the stuff and didn't eat anything else. (I did cheat and have coffee with cream, no sugar this…

We've been eating out a lot and hanging with the grandkids (which mean finger food availability). Or maybe I'm just getting ready to hibernate. Either way, not a good…

I got my flu shot just this week. Am also trying to get the new shingles vaccination. For those of us over 50, it should be covered by most health care plans and is a series of two shots that are supposed to be 90% effective. (I've had the other one, which was 50% effective). If you had chicken pox when you were a kid (or…

It’s “French style” yogurt - the texture is like pudding. Comes in a lot of flavors
