'Silence after the storm'..the last few days of high decibel sound, screaming and running around the road to burst crackers has finally come to rest. Even the intermittent spell of rain did not dampen the spirit of festivity for my kids & hubby for whom my garage was the make shift center for bursting crackers.

Our blood is alkaline and so are fruits and green vegetables. They balance with our blood and should be consumed in adequate quantities. Salt, cereals, sugar, fats and boiled milk add to acidity and should be avoided in so far as possible. Onions, garlic, radish should be avoided.
Having me as the "foodie" can be difficult at times. I know my family enjoys the healthy treats, but I also know that they're kids and want to eat things everyone else does. They're probably thinking "I want Movie popcorn, soda and candy!" Stuff I simply call... crap. I know every day is just another day to help people balance their lives... even loved ones in my home. What ever.!!!!. I can't shut up about it. I care too check here much....I have to share my information with every one, every where, every day... Now where did I leave my soap box? I need it to stand on. I had so much fun over Memorial Day weekend spending time with my family and enjoying good food. How blessed are we to live in a free country where we can speak our mind AND eat what we want.
