• I love love love stayman winesaps! they have a rough skin and a crisp textured flesh. They have a strong tart hint of sweet wine like full bodied flavor. You can only get them here around this time of year though

• I was wondering about the water temperature.. obviously it couldn’t be hot! and do they typically take longer or shorter than the conventional laying down birthing position? I don’t know if I could take being in chilly water for 2 days :)

• hmm…... i only know from my personal point of view that I will not take drugs during pregnancy. Birth and death are both forged in fire! Has anyone here had a water birth? I am very curious to know about it

• i have the cheap plastic one… got it on ebay for 14.00! I know a lot of people say it doesn’t work, but it makes really nice noodles for me! Love zucchini and like it even better when it looks like skinny little noodles. I used to be a big SAD pasta…

• caffeine actually constricts the blood vessels.. that’s why it helps relieve migraine pain, which is caused by swollen blood vessels. Just had this conversation with my neurologist yesterday

• from what I have been reading, manufactured free glutamic acid is the dangerous one. Manufactured meaning, it was either grown on bacteria cultures, or prepared using a hydrocloric acid bath. It probably all boils down to how sensitive you are. I do…

• sometimes I get diarrhea if I combine too much acid fruit with too much coconut oil. I guess that is the same as mixing fruit and fat?

• i know how you feel raw dawg. I only have $15.00 a week for food, the economy and my job sux! I’m sorry you were forced into it, but after you eat this way for a while it will grow on you because you feel so good!

• interesting… i find i am spending more money on all the fresh fruits and veg. I don’t even splurge on raw cacao and expensive nuts and butters either!

• needless to say…. haven’t heard back from the doctor. They probably think I’m nuts! and i’ve been so busy with the upkeep of the house. Lots of showings today and this past weekend (fingers crossed) Been feeling pretty good though!

• just make sure that if you decide to stop the cymbalta, that you do it verrrrry slowly, cutting back the dose gradually. If you stop taking it abruptly, you can have seizures. The withdrawals are awful too. crushing headache, nausea vomiting, diarrh…

• i use it on my face too. but no more than 2 or three times a week. ANd i keep it dilute. it burns when you first put it on! it is more of an exfoliator though. Just like the scalp, too much or too frequently used and it may dry out the skin causing …

• nope… i mean, my hair is a bit stringier, but also, it could use a cut, so that may not be from the baking soda. I just mix a tablespoon into a jar until it is a liquid, then pour only on my scalp a bit at a time. massage, and rinse. i try not to sc…
