Tips for YOU

 


I am always looking for ways to hide the fact I am eating Oatmeal! I toast oats, sunflower nuts, Rasins in Ninja Oven, I like a handful as a snack or eat it with a little soy milk for breakfast, mixed with rice cereal or cheerios.
I found a recipe on Mari's blog, My Little corner of the world, for homemade granola bars. You can get her recipe on the link. I have a short list of what I can eat due to IBS.
I made only one bar. I had just enough oats toasted for one bar.
I simply added maple syrup, natural crunchy peanut butter to the oats, Rasins, stirred, pressed it down into a bar, and left it in the fridge. Mari used honey; honey doesn't like me.
I just break off a small piece with a fork and that is my snack and hidden heathy food that is yum



Olives are a good source fiber, taste, and have 7 good reasons to eat them. One of those benefits is aid the digestive system. I put them in my rice pasta salads with yellow peppers..

I changed sugar to sugar cubes, because My hubby's hands shake, and he has memory issues and when he spills sugar on the counter, he doesn't remember to wipe it up. in Florida we have any problems.
I store the 1 lb of cubes in 2 containers that are easy for him to hold and keep the small container, because he can pull out 2 cubes with fingers and drop in his coffee.
No sugar on the counters. I eat zero sugar and don't bake, and this is working well.

Not a four leaf clover, on St. Patrick day

 

A message on the wearing of the green day. It's for all of you from both of US
Beau and I noticed the small purple flower blooming in our fern bed as we returned from our sunrise walk. The 3 leaf shamrocks have been beautiful for several weeks and now there are dozens of tiny purple blooms.

Historically, these leaves have been associated with good luck and emotional well-being. The Doctrine of Signatures, an ancient belief system, once linked the plant's appearance to its healing properties, suggesting that Pink Wood Sorrel could bolster matters of the heart. So sayeth the Google Soothsayer. May be true maybe not.



Oxalis debilis, also known as pink-wood sorrel, is the most common plant which grows as a weedy “clover” in lawns.

I have a tip for all you dog owners. Mama files by nails with a tempered Glass Emory Board, she was surprised to find they exist. She bought daddy toe nail clippers and a small one came with it. wow do the file, even my tough big dog nails, and I love it... here is a photo of mine. It has my name on it, we all have our own. It said to wash them and that if you share you can share germs too.

before you ask, I want you to know I love it and once slept through the whole filing of my dew claw sharp claw
