Hello and welcome to my weekly roundup of posts, you may have missed during the week… in many ways, a good start to the new year we are nearing the end of February … spam is in single figures so I’m happy,  the walking is on track and the knee although not completely better is 90% better thank goodness…the two men in this house I am proud to say are still NOT smoking and have increased their exercises I am so very proud of them …

Monday Musings…

Welcome to Monday Musings where my muse pinpoints anything exciting or unusual I have read, seen or experienced during the last week it could be anything that piques my interest…

On Monday something popped up and reminded me that I watched with my dad the time that John Glenn orbited the earth 3 times my father was an avid space travel fan and although we were over the pond we watched every second of this awesome achievement.

The natural antibiotic in the spotlight last week was Colloidal Silver used by many for colds and viruses even as a cure for pink eye…the music of course there has to be music-smile-was from Whoopie and “Sister Act”

On Tuesday I snuck an extra post in as it was Shrove Tuesday and for many that meant pancakes…

There are many versions of the pancake and some like super thin crepes (like) moi or the thicker pancakes with maybe maple syrup and caramelised bananas with a squirt of cream both are delicious or as a savoury pancake and why not ..it’s whatever tickles your tastebuds…

Pancake Day…21st February 2023…Aka Shrove Tuesday, Mardi Gras or Fat Tuesday…Lacy, thin crepes or Japanese pancakes…?

Last week’s virtual tour of my A-Z of World Cuisine was Finland the land of reindeer and midnight sun…The Finns respect their long-held traditions and also love other cuisines so whether you hanker to try Finland’s traditional foods or eat foods from around the world you will find it all there…

From lovely rye bread to Karelian pasties/pies or Sautéed reindeer the choice is vast…and I have heard tell that the Hesburger knocks the spots of a Mcdonald’s burger…

Thursday Thoughts…

It seems many of you remember “Dolly ” the sheep and cloning of animals still seems to go on from beloved pets to racehorses the video is an interesting one and worth a watch…it was BeetleyPete who reminded me of Biba and provided me with a great link so if you too were a Biba girl then you may love it as much as I did and continuing with my unusual musical pairings it was Metallica and San Fransisco Symphony Orchestra who knew and it’s brilliant…I loved it!

Thursday Thoughts…23rd February 2023…Dolly the Sheep, Biba plus Metallica and San Francisco Symphony Orchestra…

I think we can all agree that a healthy heart is vital to our continuing good health…

In this edition, Sally discusses foods that are needed to support good heart health as it is our most vital organ and relevant to our continued good health and lifestyle…

With all the temptations that assault us when we step inside a shopping mall, it’s no wonder that heart disease is among the biggest killers and its never been truer that “we are what we eat” but help has arrived Sally of Smorgasbord Magazine has a healthy eating plan for you..all the food is normal food nothing fancy or expensive just food in season and fresh…

The Heart is only as healthy as the food we eat…
