    Home Made Ice Cream

    Here is a photo of the sweet potato pie ice cream that I made yesterday. It turned out to be DELICIOUS ! And tastes like of like if you mixed some vanilla ice cream with the pie. Sweet potato pie is almost the same as pumpkin pie in flavor, but much simpler to cook and use than the pumpkin is...

    Okay then ! I can cook although I have never been a person who enjoys cooking, but I do like food that tastes good. I have been working on eating the healthiest food s that I can, so I watch some of the YouTube videos and try some of the simple food ideas from there. Actually, making the...

    Home Made Ice Cream

    We have been having more of the healthy ice cream made in the Ninja Creami. I have been adding foods to give it more fiber and even healthier, like chia seeds, oatmeal, protein powder, and yogurt. Today I made sweet potato ice cream. It has a fresh cooked sweet potato, vanilla, pumpkin pie...

    Plant based eating thread.

    I am not a vegan or even totally vegetarian, but since reading more and more about the importance of dietary fiber, I have been adding more plant foods to my diet, since that is where we get fiber from. There are a lot of good books about plant based eating and also about how important fiber is...

    Marie Mallory has passed away yesterday.

    Some of the longtime members here will remember Marie Mallory and her husband, Jake Smith. Marie posted a lot of songs, loved working outside in their yard and garden, and also being out in the woods and cutting the vines off of the trees on the property. Early this spring, she was diagnosed...

    Sunscreen

    I never wear sunscreen, and I have read that some of the chemicals that are in sunscreen can be bad for the skin and even possibly cause skin cancer. I have always spent a lot of time outdoors and gotten a good suntan ever since I was a little girl, and Bobby and I are in the pool every day in...

    Last thing you drank

    I made some oat milk in the blender, and then I added ice, vanilla, and some pumpkin pie seasoning and blended it all up into a kind of milkshake. It was ice cold and very delicious and had a lot of good fiber in it; so it was also very healthy.

    How's your day been today

    It has been stying hot, in the 90’s, or close to it; but we had a good downpour of rain last night, so everything is fresh and watered today. The garden is growing well, but the weather has been too hot for me to do much outside right now. We are spending time out in the swimming pool every...

    Fires

    It depends on where a person lives here in the US. If you are in the country, you can pretty much have some kind of a device to burn trash or have a nickel little fire . If you are in a city or even a town, many of these have ordinances against burning, or at least during the hotter seasons when...

    What have you done today?

    It is going to be way too hot again today, so we were up early and getting the plants and yard all watered before the heat (and mosquitoes) are bad. We are at 90% humidity, so we already have the window AC turned on in the front room to be able to breathe the heavy air. I made an early morning...

    Will Alberta secede from Canada?

    There is still a lot of talk about this happening. I think that it is unlikely to actually take place, but Alberta is one of the main states that has oil, and a lot of the income for Canada comes from Alberta. If it looks like they are actually going to break away, the Canadian government will...

    How's your day been today

    It is going to be in the 90’s again today, so we got up early to get outside things done before it gets too hot to be out in the heat. In the evenings, it is not getting very cool, even after dark, plus all the mosquitoes are out then, so early morning seems to be the best time to do anything...

    What animals have you seen recently?

    Our neighbors have a black rabbit that is mostly loose and just hops around the whole neighborhood. This morning, we thought our cat was playing with another black cat until it hopped and we realized that the cat and the black rabbit were playing together. They were across the road in the...

    Heatwave latest: Chance UK heat record could be broken

    It depends a lot on humidity, but if you have a drier climate, you can also use what we call a “swamp cooler” to keep the house cooler. It does not have a regular AC unit, just more like a fan that blows through cool water and cools down the air. It is no good in places with a lot of humidity...

    Summertime Life and Keeping Cool…..

    Europe has been having their heat wave and now it has arrived here in Alabama where Bobby and I live. Bobby has the swimming pool all ready to use and he has actually been in it a couple of times already, but the water was still pretty cold. With the 90+ temperatures, we will definitely be in...

    Amazon Prime Deals

    I looked at the Prime deals, but only ended up getting some protein drinks that were on sale. We use protein drinks all the time, and I often put them in the Ninja Creami ice cream that I make, so it is something I know will get used. I am still looking at the nut milk machines, but the best...

    The thread topics make a lot of difference for SEO, too. If the threads are about topics that people are searching for information about online, then the forum threads will come up in the search results. For example, a lot of people have diabetes and search for information online. If there were...

    Last thing you threw/binned away?

    I went through the bedding, sheets and blankets, and bagged up the ones we do not use anymore. Our bed is queen sized, but the mattress is a deep one and it is getting harder all the time for me to put those fitted bottom sheets on the bed. Bobby usually has to help me pull them down over the...
