Carnivore Dreams – Day 35 (about)

I was tempted to post today about the virus--about how the overpopulation of cities (and places like China) open us more and more to germs and how this might just be the beginning of a war against viruses.  How we were never meant to be crammed into these urban sardine cans.   And how I …

Carnivore Dreams – Gone Fishing

Me a few years ago fishing Michigan's Jordan River.  Well, more than a few.  About 20.  Seems like yesterday.  Friday I fished the south branch of the Au Sable -- the main branch of which is referred to as the "holy water." I caught a small brook trout I released, but lost half a dozen, …

Carnivore Dreams – Garden Update

Tomatoes not red yet, but tons here and in garden. Not sure my zucchinis pollinated yet. Peppers and green beans are doing well. Both bell peppers and jalapenos have started and they grow so fast. More tomatoes.  If they finally take off, I'll have way too many. My potatoes blurred in the picture. Sideways picture …

Carnivore Dreams Day 21

Ok, I have not been totally perfect because I've been drinking a little wine, having a few choice garden veggies, so I'd say I'm a bit more keto, but I've increased protein and that seems to have offset things.  More muscle.  I'm eating more beef, eggs, and cheese.  I plan to do even better but …

Carnivore Dreams – ONE MORE TIME

Ok, so we have to drive downstate again tomorrow to do this closing all over again because the buyers' lender is incompetent it appears.  So I will not be back to normal routine until next week.  Today I finish company bills I couldn't do yesterday because a fax was messed up.  So it goes... Need …

Carnivore Dreams – Boycott List

  Happy Monday.  I'll be working on my special post for tomorrow.  Today, I'll run to the nursery, make tacos for those guys with leftover smoked pork shoulder.  Probably some eggs, good coffee, mmm.  Another beautiful day of gardening, exercise, and I hope writing! But here is my list to date of companies I recommend …

Carnivore Dreams -Margaret Atwood -Harpers Letter

Hang on through the background, this is a good, hopeful post!! Margaret Atwood in her prime... She wasn't the first writer that made me want to write.  When I was young I loved Taylor Caldwell (Captains and Kings).  She wrote mostly historical fiction and she was brilliant, and an oddity, a conservative writer.  Later, it …

Carnivore Dreams – Things to Ponder

So ponder these facts (while I'm working on my next post which  may or may not show up tonight).  (I know these facts both from research and personal experimentation):  If you FAST, your cholesterol will rise. (I can attest to this and you can research it.) If you eat carnivore your cholesterol MIGHT rise even …

Carnivore Dreams – Wow, Jordan Peterson and Synchronicity

Incredibly, Jordan's newsletter came through outlining the difference between a legitimate belief system and idealism.  So strange I ran across this idea and posted on it today, a synchronistic happening!  Here are Jordan's words.  The link to his whole newsletter is below. A belief system is merely trying to simplify, while retaining pragmatic utility. A …
