I made another new recipe by The Real Food Dietitians - Banana Chocolate Chip Baked Oatmeal. It is very good, but so far I think my favorite is the pumpkin one.
I don't know how I get into such conversations, but I do, and I did. I not only entertained the dentist at my last appointment, but the dental assistant as well.
It was freezing cold out, so the conversation started there.
I was talking about tending the hens, which led to talking about dressing for the weather. I mentioned that I always take my cell phone and a house key with me, when I go outside for anything. They both giggled at my entertainment, when I told them I was once locked out of the house by one of the dogs, in the heat of summer, and had one dog with me. I had no cell phone, no key and we live in the boonies. Literally.
I guess I'm traumatized enough to continue to carry both a phone and key after that happened. Glad I could make them laugh.
Winter Tea
I recently shared a link for a seasonal stress tea recipe via Mennonites Can Cook blogspot. Well, they shared another recipe the other day for "Winter Blues" tea recipe. It looks interesting. Here is the link: Winter Blues Tea. I think I have all the ingredients to try this, other than the lemongrass and rose buds. I wonder if I could use my lemon balm? Is there a big difference in lemon balm and lemongrass? I used to have lemon grass planted in a pot, but it has since died off.

Know you're into making your holistic, healing salves, etc., but if you should buy off-the-shelf, Absorbine Jr. helps with healing bruises. I put on immediately after injury 'before' black-n-blue starts. Sure helps with the pain as well as the bruise. There is also PRO by Absorbine Jr. that is 2X stronger. Just in case you go "Outside" Your Zone!"
Have a great Friday and hope you're safe and warm with this approaching blast!
That is a nasty bruise. Our chickens are not laying as much, but I am still getting close to a dozen eggs a day. I have so many eggs here that I am going to have to start making more egg dishes.
You have a Very good reason for toting your phone and house key with you. We have locked ourselves out of the house several times and for this reason, we keep a well hidden key outside. I sometimes forget where it is hidden. Winter tea sound good and healthy.
Mother Em, thank you! I will look for that the next time I am out running errands.
Carol, I envy you ha ha! I want boiled eggs for snacking, and the eggs are lacking.
Shug, I have it with me any time of the year, as my husband also insisted, You never know. I almost fell in one of the barns one year, and they have cement floors. It really made me think about that too. The tea does sound good right?
