Carnivore/Keto Dreams – Plants – to eat them or not to eat them, that is the question

And a hard question it is-- for me.  I had sort of decided to risk it during my gardening season when the lettuce and tomatoes, peppers, herbs were so fresh, organic, and right out my back door.  (I use herbs year round, even when I'm on carnivore--spices as well--and they didn't seem to bother me.) …

Carnivore/Keto Dreams – Upcoming Reading

https://www.amazon.com/Good-High-Place-L-Kimball-ebook/dp/B004Z0WSW4/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=A+good+high+place&qid=1565742498&s=gateway&sr=8-3  Epic and nonlinear in nature, A Good High Place chronicles the lives of two women—Luella and Kachina—who, like the orbit of the sun and the moon, both attract and repel each other. Luella’s suspicion that her younger sister—who supposedly died at birth—is being raised as the sister of Kachina sets her on a path …

Carnivore Dreams – Garden August, The Good, the Bad, and Ugly

No, mostly it's been great.  As you can see my peppers are going great guns--can't keep up with them.  We've been cutting and coming on the lettuce all summer and it's still producing, though perhaps slowing down--a little less coming.  All the herbs have been fabulous--thyme, rosemary, oregano, dill, sage, doing great.  Next year I'll …

Carnivore Diet – health update

I know many of you read this for diet and health purposes as well as the more esoteric dream stuff.  So I think an update is in order. If you want the background of my journey with the keto then carnivore diet, look back through my blog posts.  Quick recap:  I'm 64 years old.  I've …

Carnivore Dreams — Deck Dreams

I like weathered wood, but as you can see in the first picture, we had more than that --green moss.  So we stripped the deck, lightened it, and stained it.  I might some day look for a stain that has gray and white in it so you get that weathered look, but this is nice.  …

Carnivore Dreams – Sad

I've been working on Dad's house all weekend, but my friend Charmaine (who recently drowned, inexplicably drowned) was on my mind all weekend.  Her service was Friday and due to Dad's health, we weren't able to mark her passing with our dear friend Larry and her boys, Jeremy and Scott. I've been blessed with incredible …

Carnivore Dreams – Neck

I suspect another month or two of carnivore/keto and my neck/jaw slackness will be gone--or pretty close considering my advanced years.  It's definitely firming up.  At least there is a definition where my jaw ends and my neck starts!  And I can almost see a chin, I think. As we speak, I'm getting a headache, …

Carnivore Dreams — Crop update

It's looking good and nobody can be 100% carnivore during the fall harvest.  I'm already eating lettuce, cherry tomatoes.  I always used herbs anyway.  I won't eat many potatoes myself, but I like to grow them.  My peas are incredible--every day, every hour, they seem to burst with pods.  Brussels sprouts are getting huge.  Herbs …

Carnivore Dreams – Fishing

"God will not deduct from man those hours spent fishing..."   Ok, so I didn't even have a bite and my fishing partner had one chub and a four inch brook trout, but we were on the water.  And there are no bad days on the water.  Ever. I was fishing with a brown drake …

Carnivore Dreams – Booze or no booze?

Well, here is the question.  Can you be thin and drink booze or healthy and drink booze?  I'm not sure about healthy, but I am pretty sure you can't drink and be thin--at least not 4-5 times/ week.  Even a few glasses of wine. I'm starting to lose the weight in my jawline and neck …
