Carnivore/Keto Dreams

Yep.  And we had rental houses and are selling them now and the capital gains is just a killer.  Hard to figure why they deserve all that money.  Just to waste it I guess.  While we may never retire! Ah, so it goes. I wasn't able to head to Green Bay due to another blizzard, …

Carnivore/Keto Dreams – Broccoli

Broccoli cheese soup with bacon and green onion.  A bit of tarragon for good measure.  I pureed part of the soup to get some thickness since I didn't want to use flour or that gum stuff they talk about.  Not bad at all. I also used goat cheese instead of cream cheese, and of course, …

Carnivore/Keto Dreams — No vitamin D?

Finally made it outside today.  That is a hot tub back there in the corner.   We got eight inches of snow probably and it drifts on our deck.  Had to shove the door  open to get my dog outside today.   I have a fellow who shovels thank heavens.  Not me.  Pulled a muscle in …

Carnivore/Keto Dreams – Alvar Plains

I'm setting part of my novel (as I did one of my best short stories) on Drummond Island in Michigan.  It sits in Lake Huron north of Mackinac Island.  The limestone topography seems almost like pavement,  but in places with sparse vegetation it's feels like the surface of the moon!  It's an amazing place: The …

Carnivore/Keto Dreams

WebMed My dad has Parkinson's.  He has heart problems, too,  and COPD to some extent, but it's the Parkinson's that sucks. You don't want that, let me tell you. He's 87 and the biggest problem is he falls. The sinemet doesn't work as well as it used to so he shakes so much it's hard …

Carnivore/Keto Dreams

Who are you?  I suppose I would fall between The Sage and The Explorer.  With maybe a bit of the Magician and Jester thrown in for good measure.  Jung, what a guy. We are having major winter here in northern Michigan--brutal temps and snow and wind.  Good for staying in and writing, but not much …

Carnivore/Keto Dreams –Sickness

A note about carnivore/keto and winter colds, virus, and flu.  My father, who has gotten the flu shot the last two years, is deathly ill in Florida as we speak.  He is 87 and susceptible since he has COPD and more.  I have never gotten flu shots, but I do use those grocery store wipes …

Carnivore/Keto Dreams- New York Strip

Going carnivore today.   Give my guts a bit of a rest.  Sticking with a nice medium rare grass fed New York strip steak and a few sauteed shrimp.  I will have a few mussels for an appetizer. Make a nice rub of a couple nice chili powders:  ancho, chipotle, chili de arbol, a good steak …
