I found a lump.  I heard that it could change in size or even disappear over the course of a regular hormonal cycle, so i waited.  It didn't go away.  I had just purchased brand new health insurance with a high deductible.  I am worried that my premiums will go ... MORE...

Comments

Ha.  That title makes me think of a boxing match.  It would be very hard to figure whose corner to be in.  It's the battle of the two evils. It has been quite a winter here.  Record-breaking snow covered my area and I caught a couple flus.  The latter of the two ... MORE...

I made it through my traditional American Thanksgiving.  I ate things I don't normally eat anymore: mashed potatoes, bread stuffing, carrot cake, Apartame.  I originally envisioned sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts, and spiced pecans instead of dessert.  But everyone in the family has their vision too, and you just have ...

Harriet, my friend and nutritional counselor, hosted a Fermentation Party yesterday.  It was the best!  We had all the equipment and ingredients for mustard, cortido, pickled cucumbers, and kimchee.  Much of the ingredients were sourced from farms and farmers markets.  The hot peppers were home-grown in the garden.  For the cortido, Harriet ...
