Hello and welcome to my weekly roundup of posts, you may have missed during the week…I hope those of you who are experiencing snow stay warm and if you have to drive heed the weather warnings and stay safe…the heat has turned up a few notches here which means walks have to be done early before the heat rises and later when the sun has gone down…

Maprao is coconut. Pao is a young coconut roasted in a fire; later, the burned dark part is removed to keep the centre. So it is quite small. You drink the juice; it is the BEST coconut juice ever. I keep seeing these little coconuts at the market and asked my daughter-in-law what they were…now I know this video shows how they are roasted…

I hope you enjoyed the video of this traditional method of roasting young coconuts.

Now I best get on with last week’s posts starting with Monday Musings…

Thursday Thoughts…

Cher Ami what a heroic little pigeon…

Cher Ami is on display at the Smithsonian Museum of American History to preserve his
memory. Since then, his story has lived on in the hearts and minds of Americans across the
decades and his bravery will never be forgotten.

The reason I shared this was prompted by a comment from a friend on social media(FB) her question was “Why after 3 days has this post got no likes or comments”…If you read post you will of course-smile-hear my thoughts on this-smile-

The Natural Antibiotic I showcased this week was ACV or Apple Cider Vinegar a staple in my home with many uses ….Music was again provided by Bocelli and this time his collaboration with another favourite of mine Pentatonix…Fabulous…

Thursday Thoughts…24th March 2023…Cher Ami a hero, Natural Antibiotic, Apple Cider Vinegar,

Smorgasbord Health…The Liver.

I have always had a smattering of knowledge as to what was where in my body and the functions of any said organ however as I have got older and have more time on my hands-smile-I have found a new urgency to know more and if possible give me and my family the best chance of staying disease free with good mobility always a plus at my age-big grin-plus there is so much we can do to help ourselves…

I am an advocate for eating good food, in season and for keeping our bodies as chemical-free as we can all things you and I can control…after all it’s our hands who hold the fork …

This is why I find Smorgasbord Magazine a great starting point…I trust my friend Sally as she has the knowledge and experience in nutrition.

Smorgasbord Health Column 2023 – The Body our Greatest Asset – The Digestive System Part Two – The Oesophagus and Stomach by Sally Cronin

The digestive system is not voiceless…if you get a stomach upset, feel nauseous, or get a headache or a rash.. it is your gut-brain letting you know it is not happy. It works on the principle that after hundreds of thousands of years evolving, it knows very well what it needs and if it comes in a packet along with additives and artificial sweeteners, colourings and chemically produced nutrients… that is not it.

Over the next few weeks, Sally from Smorgasbord Magazine will be working her way through the digestive system and afterwards, perhaps you might review what you are eating that might not agree with your body. This includes some chronic illnesses and life-threatening diseases.
