Not the best picture, but yummy and super easy to make in a pinch…
Meatballs pineapple and broccoli in coconut milk and bone broth…
Smoothie Sunday
Coconut milk, frozen organic strawberries (acts like ice), banana, honey, and spinach..YUM
Oh and by the way the Oster Beehive is awesome for smoothies..It is still really new, so I will see how it holds up, but it blends away everything
from greens to fruit and veggies like it is nothing..Screw you $500.00 vitamix 🙂
The Dunk
I started doing a hot and cold water dunk for my swollen hand joints. It works really well for me.
I just use the kitchen sink as we don’t have dual sinks in our bathroom at this rental house.
Make the cold water icy and the hot water hot, but not scalding, and go between the two submerging your hands up past the wrist for as long as it is comfortable. I usually do cold to hot. I usually do this about 3 or 4 times a few times a day.
Spinach and Bacon Ends
Sunday we made baby spinach cooked in bacon ends for lunch. Needless to say my hubby liked it..It had bacon in it 🙂
We needed way more spinach though…I would say 3-4 times more spinach than we had..
Cook up the bacon until it is crunchy….then drain the excess grease..( lesson learned :))
add some garlic..then dump in the spinach and cook a few minutes until it is wilted…
Don’t put a lid on or it will make the spinach taste metallic..Splash some vinegar of your choice in and some salt and pepper (depending on your bacon ends)..mush around..and walla..NOMNOMNOM
Woodsy
I love being out in the woods..any kind of nature really..
I was able to go hiking on Sunday, but I sure felt it later that day and on Monday..
He won’t be getting my vote
http://www.wral.com/house-committee-kills-medical-marijuana-bill/12131140/
“We did it to be done with it, so people could move on for the session,” said Rep. Paul “Skip” Stam, R-Wake. He said lawmakers we’re being “harassed” with phone calls and emails about medical marijuana.
I can’t imagine why people in pain would be pushing to making medical marijuana legal.
Last I checked part of his job is to listen to his constituents..
Heating Pad Heaven
Anyone with RA knows how nice heat feels wrapped around achey joints..
I went through a bunch of heating pads until I found the Sunbeam Xpress.
It doesn’t have the cruddy plastic insert so it stays soft and you can wrap it around the body parts that hurt without any issues..
I hate those cheapie ones..The plastic gets all bent and it is NOT comfy..
I had looked into the heating packs before, but I stopped using a microwave so they are pretty useless for me now..
Love this one..! 🙂
Yesterday dinner
Yummy …Kale sauteed in bone broth, apple cider vinegar, and bacon ends with bacon wrapped chicken tenders with a honey mustard apple cider vinegar sauce….
