    Reflections of My Life

    Is this test for his heart, @katlupe ? Because of my a fib and CHF, my cardiologist sent me to an electrophysiologist, and they did a heart ablation, which helped my heart for a couple of years, and then they had to do another one. Eventually, he had to put in a permanent pacemaker which...

    Home Internet price just went up, any tips?

    We have google fiber available here, and have had that for our internet provider for the last several years now. They sent out a mail letter with an offer for something called Neighborhood Internet (or some similar name) and it is just over $20 each month, the lowest plant they offer, but it...

    200 white onions in the ground.

    I just ordered some Egyptian walking onions to try growing. I remember having these many years ago, and the new little bulbs come on the top of the green stems, fall off and start new onions, which is why they are called walking onions. I read that they can be grown in containers, so I am going...

    Rising prices - Wow!

    Eggs here in Huntsville are just over $2 per dozen, @Pepper . That is for regular eggs at Walmart, if you buy local eggs from someone who has chickens, they probably are closer to the $6 per dozen, but not at the grocery store. Fuel is between $2-$3 per gallon, depending on where you buy it...

    What's Your Favorite Movie

    It is always hard to choose which one is my most favorite. This is one that I have watched a lot, and never get tired of seeing.

    Amazing health benefits of almonds .

    I was not pleased with the walnut milk. Even after soaking overnight, and then blending really well, it had a lot of pulp, plus the taste was weird. I tried it in my morning coffee, and ended up dumping out the coffee and making another cup with the almond milk instead. I think that the...

    Why I am still using Windows 7

    I gave up my last Windows computer when my daughter gave me my first iPad, back around 2011. I have loved iPads since then, and upgraded as needed, and would never go back to Windows for any reason. If I didn't have the iPad, I would use a Chromebook. I think that they are the ultimate simple...

    Amazing health benefits of almonds .

    I had soaked some almonds overnight, so I decided to go ahead and make almond milk with my little Oster blender. After rinsing the soaked almonds, I squeezed them to take off the brown outer skin, leaving just the white inside part. I used about one cup of almonds and 3/4 quart of filtered...

    Amazing health benefits of almonds .

    I am thinking of making plant-based milk again, so I have been looking at the nut milk makers on Amazon. They are having a bog sale for Prime members right now, so there are really good deals on those devices. I have only ever used my blender to make nut milk, and I gave away my Vitamix to my...

    Eating a plant-based diet.

    This is where (possibly) the food combining could come into play, @MACKTEXAS . If you look at the information I have posted about how foods are digested differently (above), you can see that carbs and protein foods should not be eaten together, or they can rot or ferment in the stomach and...

    Open dialogue for Medicare plans 2026

    For many years now, we have had a Medicare insurance agent, and I completely recommend doing this. Our agent is a broker, which means he can research and recommend plans for any insurance company, and does not just work for one company. It does not cost to have an agent help you find a plan...

    Eating a plant-based diet.

    Over the years, I have been back and forth with my diet, and have tried just about every WOE (way of eating) that exists, from vegan to carnivore/keto. I have tried intermittent fasting, OMAD, green smoothies, whey protein drinks, raw foodist, and probably more that i can’t quite remember at...

    Medicare Medicaid Coverage Dilemma

    We have a Medicare insurance agent that helps us every year. It does not cost anything for him to do this, and it is really helpful in finding out which is the best plan and the best company to choose each year. We had Humana for several years, but then changed over to Devoted Health because...

    Song with the words 'Day' or 'Night' in the title.

    Night Mist over Highway #2, one of my favorite songs. Such a mystical melody.
