Recipe Review
Today’s
Recipe and Location: Kale
Citrus Salad
Found
in: The Pioneer Woman blog
I think it’s about
time to include a salad in the recipe choices. This salad is primarily kale.
Did you know that kale is really great for you? It helps detox your body. It
can also be good for you if you have high cholesterol. The interesting part for me was the
goat cheese. I am new to this and have enjoyed it during the two times I have
used it. Enjoy!
Gabbin’ About Gratitude
On
June 25th I had a colonoscopy. After age 50, everyone should have
one to protect and preserve your health. This was my second one and I am so
glad that I did so. I am so grateful that my colonoscopy came out great. Most
people I have talked to complained about the prep for the procedure. They have
come miles in the last three years. You get to mix the powder with Gatorade
instead of the vile tasting drink. This procedure is no big deal, but it can
change your life. Okay, all of you
over 50 – make that call today!
Memory Musings
One
of my favorite people in the world is Laura Stopka, Kathy’s sister. I have
always called her Lola, because it just seems to fit her, and I am big on
nicknames. When I lived in Florida, I used to spend a lot of time with Kathy’s
sisters, Laura (Lola), Mary (Mert), and Suzanne (SuSu). Laura gave me the
nickname of Ethel Fitzgerald Ramstein. To this day she will occasionally called
me Ethel.
When
I was in my first year teaching, I told my class that I had an evil twin named
Ethel Fitzgerald Ramstein. The kids believed me when I said we were identical
twins. I even proved my claim with a letter that I received from Laura, mailed
to Ethel. My kids questioned it,
but I think I had a few of them fooled. One day I came in and acted angry and
one of them asked me if I was Ethel. I replied that I was and that I was
filling in for my sister for the first hour of the day because she was at the
dentist. While they were in P.E., I changed my clothes and reappeared as
myself. We discussed the differences
in my two identities, and then I “fessed up” and told them the truth. We all
had a great laugh. Sometimes
school can be fun!
