The MAHA Influence
Earlier this year, once my birthday, Inauguration Day was over. things began to change. Especially with this MAHA Make America Healthy Again movement when RFK Jr. was finally voted in as HHS Secretary. He has really shaken up this department.

Flowers & Food Create Smiles
Today is a week, since surgery. I’m itchy more than achy like I was at this stage back in March. The heat has been more irritating than anything besides my nausea the last few days.

Change of Routine

Grandpa & Italian Beef’s
The year after Grandpa died I began a tradition while I was at college. On days like today, I would eat something he would have enjoyed. Subway was on that list right before he died. The Chicken Teriyaki was by far his favorite from that sandwich shop. So it became a family favorite for most…

Flunking Tacos
This afternoon I decided we needed to make tacos for supper. It’s been a while since we have done so too long. I enjoy making our own tacos with our favorite toppings and some rice on the side and tostitos. It’s fun usually. However, after I made that decision I looked for a package of…
