Those darned out of towners. Always wanting to see everything.
Is it really a party if nothing gets broken?😂 Glad you had a great time!
If I've had a bad day & feel stressed in the evenings, I like to look for my friends in other parts of the world. Friends in Ukraine, Oz, the UK & Europe are all on varying stages of TOMORROW. So, I tell myself it's fine, that the world already made it to tomorrow (I know, I know 😂)
for anything that involved upper respiratory, such as allergies, colds/flu, asthma, and the symptoms of histamine intolerance. Of course, if you were to do similar, you'd want to research astragalus to make sure it would be safe for you & provide benefits for your situation. No claims, not a dr :)
Monolaurin is a supplement derived from processing coconut oil. It's friendly with most things, but if you were to use it, you'd want to make sure it won't conflict with anything else you're taking -- just to be safe. Back when I was still susceptible to colds/flu, I'd combine it with astragalus
With the economy as it is, some of us will struggle more than others getting care & some won't be able to get care at all. I'm not telling anyone what to do since I'm not a dr, but I've gotten rid of several toothaches, a couple of UTIs, staved off covid & other communicables by taking MONOLAURIN.
That's why I came back too! F*ck being afraid of "them." I've been called defiant all my life. It would be stupid to be less now, esp over threats from bullies. One of the things I learned from martial arts, years ago, is when someone's coming for you, step in -- then you're *their* problem.
They look so beautiful in the twilight 💜

Do you know where they go or what they do after dark?
How did your party go? Nice time?
I'm not religious, but there is always a certain set of feelings being around things so old. Plus, it's beautiful.
The Parish Church of St. Peter Cound is wonderful for many reasons. It is home to this rather wonderful tub font, which is believed to be 12th century in origin. The font is tub-shaped and carved with rosettes and foliage. It is still used for Christenings.

Wow! I love the fog & this is magnificent 💜
And The Fog Swelled and Swallowed The City

Fog swallows Portland, Oregon at dawn. Shortly after this, the rising fog bank erased the city's skyscrapers entirely from view.

Oh, man... now I wanna pull mysterious footprints pranks.
In 17th-century London, the Devil’s Footprints were found in snow across rooftops, walls, and locked gardens, perfectly spaced and leading nowhere. No one ever explained them. #31DaysofHalloween #31DaysofHaunting
(Hugs) Thank you 💜
I had deactivated for a couple of days. It was feeling creepy to be on social media for recently revealed reasons & I kinda freaked out about it. Such are the times we live in, but there will be a time past it.
One thing I notice that I forget when I'm busy, is to shop my pantry before shopping the store. Sometimes I forget that I bought a bulk item or have built up stock on something because I have a small house & need to tuck it away.
From 6 mo ago, but grows even more relevant.
Even save shrimp shells & tails in a baggie in the freezer to make shrimp stock. It makes a wonderful stock that can help you change up your meals. You can freeze the stock in ice cube or food prep trays, then pop the cubes out & transfer to a baggie for storage.

May I suggest, keep a Ziploc bag in the freezer and save all bones. Chicken bones, beef bones. Put them in a giant pot of water with about a half of a teaspoon of vinegar to pull out the minerals. Boil them and you have a great bone broth that’s nutritious with your scraps. Also save veg scraps.
Mine was "impregnation." Celibate & 63, this will either be an alien baby or a Christ child. 🤷‍♀️ Either way, can I get dual-citizenship?
