Carnivore Dreams – Excerpt

I'm working today.  Revision on my woodfire cookbook/memoir.  This is the mouth of the Two Hearted River near my camp.  My camp is on the Little Two Hearted.  A poem from my memoir about water: Two Hearted   My mother hated water, she said.  The leaks in the roof, the flood seeping into the basement …

Carnivore Dreams – Corona-solution

Here is my solution.  So ok, I think Trump did the right thing to extend this a month.  That gives them time to get more testing and better handle on things and perhaps a chance to slow the trajectory. But at that point, it's obviously not sustainable.  The death rate is not 10 or 20%.  …

Carnivore Dreams – Vitamin D

A former CDC director (Tom Frieden), vitamin D may be the best way you can boost your immunity.  He suggests sunshine or a supplement if you live in northern climes. Of course, dose according to your physician's direction and your current levels.  If you are low, you should plan to take a hefty dose for …

Carnivore Dreams – In the Blood

First, let me vent.  I am a Libertarian and our governor here in Michigan is forbidding trials of drugs even though the FDA has ok'd them for certain people and they are being tried in New York State and Florida and more places.  How dare she presume to parent us when this should be between …

Carnivore Dreams – Blood Groups Matter!

Ok, kind of gruesome photo.  Now that I have your attention! Blood group DOES matter for diseases.  Hm, and isn't THIS interesting.  Type O people are at a lower risk (and do better) for CORONAVIRUS AND MALARIA -- and isn't it interesting people are responding to MALARIA drugs!!  Fascinating stuff.  Type O people seem to …

Carnivore Dreams – 23 and Me – Blood Types Matter!

I had mine done years ago and found it interesting--mostly for ancestry purposes, but paid for the health part as well.  It's been mostly reassuring on any reports they've sent on. I heard a doctor from New York City (I'd heard this a couple times) say  that people with Type A blood do worse with …

Carnivore Dreams – Wayne County

The virus is exploding in Wayne County, MI and Cook County, Illinois.  I'm not sure why, they aren't sure why.  The hot-spots are always urban pretty much, that's a given.  My son is downstate down there in Macomb, pretty close, and where there are enough cases. We just aren't meant to live like sardines--we never …

Carnivore Dreams -Seeds and Thoughts

Yesterday we put together my grow light system.  I'm going to try to grow tomatoes, peppers, beans, lettuce, lots of herbs from seed, starting them inside.  I have everything I need except the seeds!  I also ordered seed potatoes which I'll put into the garden directly in April.  I've never grown from seeds before and …

Carnivore Dreams – Chill

I feel less stressed. Is it because everything is suddenly going so great and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel?  No. Is it because they  have treatments and I know all my high risk folks here (care-giver that I am) are going to be ok?  No.  Is it because I'm …

Carnivore Dreams – Head

Wasn't sleeping at all, so got up to get some water, bent down under a cabinet and stood up under it.  I can't tell you how much that hurt my head.  Had ice on it for a while, dozed off and woke up nauseous.  Nothing else terrible like dizziness or double vision or anything, but …
