Daily Notes- later than usual. Monday, February 9th. BRIGHT sunshine and lots of SNOW


 Turmeric Tea.   I was on some strange diet- can't recall why--- and made lots of things with turmeric .. Very good for one's health.   I might try a cup today.... I also only used rice to make things. It did help. The strange diet did help reset my body and so many things corrected themselves....

Elimination Diet....I had a very very bad skin rash...doctor said he'd given me the strongest meds (steroids) but nothing worked....so the diet....which worked...  I used the Vitamix to grind white rice to make rice flour. And made the most ridiculously tasteless rice muffins (no egg, no dairy).  My cross the street neighbor was into that sort of thing so I made HER a batch....she loved them..... I also blitzed carrots into a "soup" for her.  The Vitamix got the soup really HOT.  It wasn't bad but I did add heavy cream to my bowl....

Son made some fantastic nachos yesterday for halftime of the Super Bowl...  The Patriots have never really done well playing Seattle.  Never.   And yesterday was really ...omg.   I sorted a bag of DebL's beautiful scraps during most of it......I plan on making a small nine patch...today. Curling. Is On.

I had to go back and see if I had already mentioned Turmeric in the last post...I loose track easily.

Nice hot shower this morning....clean hair... quite wild and white...it's at that turning point...not long or heavy enough to be tamed and still short enough to scramble itself.  Swirls....and curls.

My coffee has cooled down too much and it's very bitter... the last of this jar of instant decaf...I have a new one in the cupboard waiting....different brand... possibly better?????  I am going off the trail here and not having daughter buy the Organic Fair Trade one.  Which I am having now...a bit too bitter for me.  I am going to drink the "usual got nothing going for it" instant store brand coffee.  Less bitter. Less everything.

I am enjoying my oranges...they are sweet, juicy and rather perfect.  This week.

I watched  a Julia Roberts movie-- the last 15 minutes of it...."I'm just a guy..standing in front of a girl" etc.   I might watch the whole thing if it's on when Curling is not. Or just record it.. 

Today's book is another Crusie....while I wait for The Lost Husband to be picked up at the Library. The one I have here is about a woman, a baby, and an ex husband and a cop wanting to arrest the husband. It's confusing and really a lot of fun....
