Good Old Spinach

Think Spring as this is one veggie that can do you a world of good.  Some folks like to buy the bigger leaves, but for me these can’t be beat.  They are one of the first things I get to planing as soon as the soil warms up.  Should also mention I put in two rows. One early and one a couple weeks later. That way I got lots for the whole summer.  Enjoy and look for my new gardening book coming out this spring.  Keep saying it I know but hate to see you folks miss a good thing.   Talk Soon.

Things I Like To Buy When Grocery Shopping.

What you have in your mind when you go to the grocery store will pretty much determine whether you live a long life of vibrant good health with feelings of well being, or a shortened life riddled with obesity and degenerative disease. Will you be a person with energy and enthusiasm for life, a person who others seek out and want to be around? Or will be you a lifeless, cranky and unattractive person? The answer largely depends on what you choose to put in your grocery cart.

Some of the main things that I would buy?  Here they areL Apples Top Of The List: Berries:vegetables such as: broccoli, cabbage, kale, radish, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, collard greens, kohlrabi, mustard, rutabaga, turnips, water crest and spinach.

Beans is another major player in good health,  nothing like good old white navy beans for supper.

Nuts and seeds:  And don’t forget salmon we have it once a week for dinner in a sandwich.

And the last two on my list would be turkey and blueberries.  Get these things into your body and your on the way to becoming one healthy feller or gal.  Talk Soon & make sure you look for my new gardening book coming out this spring. You will be glad you did.

Humor, Gotta’ Love It

The question is:

What Do Retired People Do All Day?

Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days
interesting.

Well, for example, the other day my wife and I went into town and went into a shop.

We were only in there for about 5 minutes.

When we came out, there was a cop writing out a parking ticket.
We went up to him and said, ‘Come on man, how about giving a senior citizen a break?’

He ignored us and continued writing the ticket. I called him a Nazi Turn Coat. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn tires.

So my wife called him a misserable old bugger.  He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first.  Then he started writing a third ticket.
This went on for about 20 minutes.  The more we abused him, the more tickets he wrote.

Personally, we didn’t care.  We came into town by bus.  We try to have a little fun each day now that we’re retired.  It’s important at our age.

Good Old Butter

There seems to be a lot of question about which healthy spreads should be used to replace butter. Since the word is finally spreading about the harmful nature of trans fat, margarine has been officially declared as a substance which should be avoided. Of course, in its place have rushed countless other butter alternatives which do not contain hydrogenated fats. But now that refined vegetable oils, additives and preservatives are coming under fire, it leaves the question what in the world can we spread on our toast? The answer is simple and natural: go back to butter.

Relative Humidity & The Flu

Sound Advice.

So why is relative humidity misleading?

The answer is that more moisture can be present in warm air than in cold. Some people like to say warm air can hold more moisture than cold air. While that’s not scientifically correct, it is a convenient way to think about it.

What that means is warm air at 30 percent relative humidity and cold air at 60 percent relative humidity may actually have the same amount of water in the air.

So, while the cold air sounds moist, it might be pretty dry – just what the Flu likes.

Absolute humidity is expressed in weight of water, grams or pounds, in a volume of air, such as a cubic meter or yard. The higher the reading the wetter. The wetter the less likely of catching the Flu

“In some areas of the country, a typical summer day can have four times as much water vapor as a typical winter day – a difference that exists both indoors and outdoors,” “Consequently, outbreaks of influenza typically only occur in winter when low absolute humidity conditions strongly favor influenza survival and transmission.”
