Errata and et cetera



The ways of the internet are crazy indeed.  some rule was apparently violated yesterday in the second paragraph of the "Hummus" blog, which turned it into gibberish, only perhaps understood by the machine itself..  Maybe it was the "less than" symbol.   For clear thinking readers, I hope this will come through and reveal my intended text.  Apologies

As we enter the world of “restricted” Sodium, less than 2300 milligrams per day, we are on the search for lower sodium dishes, and so I read the “nutritional” labels a lot.   One of our finds through a friend is a salt substitute made from Kelp granules.  Go figure.  Trying to keep the cocktail hour a civil exercise, we’re always on the lookout for things to replace (sigh) cheese for instance, although we do allow me an ounce or so depending on the variety of said fromage. 


Since I'm typing, a few random thoughts to fill the white space:

That obnoxious adolescent little twerp in the "Fios" commercials that preaches to the ignorant adults or smirks his way through his gaming friends is, well, obnoxious.

In the same league as the other little twerp who apparently has his Ipad glued to his nose asking his mother (after she asks him a civil question) "what's a computer?"  Wonder how he'd like his device shoved up that nose...

Tomorrow is the Superbowl, I suppose I'll watch, although I don't have much of a dog (or Eagle or Patriot) in the fight.  I guess I can use the old "I'm only watching for the commercials" excuse.

In years past we used to either host or attend a "party" with many of our dearest friends.  time passes, and most of them have scattered to various coasts or cities.  So tomorrow we're going to have a "virtual" party, probably texting and trading pictures as we go.  MFO is preparing (reduced Sodium) snacks for us.  Superbowl is a time where you can wallow in lovely, but not so healthy food like Gumbos, Nachos, and Jambalaya things which are pretty much off limits for the Feeder now.  There will not be Kale chips..

enjoy, and maybe

a quote from MFO trying to copy some recipes out of our expanding library of "Healty Eating" and "Low Sodium Delights" books: "there ought to be a law that all cookbooks have to lie flat!!"
