Sesame Seeds

Sesame seeds are a storehouse of goodness. They are really not that high of a priced when you are shopping for nutritious foods.

I know that many of you are far advanced in your knowledge of foods. I'm still discovering many things that I have overlooked or thought was inconvenient to use. Seeds are one. I a nut (in this case a seed) for grinding. I think you must unlock seed's goodness with a coffee grinder in order to help them assimilate or digest in our bodies. Especially as we get older our chompers are not up to their full potential. Some of us aged are even missing a few teeth.  

"Whole sesame seeds contain about 88 mg of calcium per tablespoon of seeds. Just a quarter cup of natural sesame seeds provides more calcium than a whole cup of milk. A quarter cup of raw natural sesame seeds has 351 mg of calcium while one cup of non-fat milk has 316.3 mg, and one cup of whole milk has only 291 mg of calcium. Plus, they are alkaline whereas milk is acidic."

I find it is real easy to grind if you shake the seeds in the grinder as it is operating. It keeps the seeds from settling to the bottom and escaping the grinding process.

I add the newly created powder into my Nutri Ninja. If you have any bone pain, you might find the solution to painless living by using sesame seeds. 

You Got a Lemon for a Gift

You got a pizza cooker and you don't eat pizza. Be creative. There are more uses than just pizza. The thing I like about a pizza cooker is that it cooks on top and bottom. I now cook my eggs in it. It's great. I also heat my taco shells and sometimes I put my burritos in it. I think I'll even try cooking eggplant in it.

Why the post? Sometimes we can find uses for things others find no use for.  Maybe you got some large chunky dried fruit. Don't fret. Cut them up and put them in your bowl of oatmeal.  If you really got a lemon for a gift then give it away. Why clutter up your household with unused junk.

Some Thoughts for the Day

I have a very active job. It is like doing aerobics continually for hours at a time. I don't have to work hard but I do. Not to show off but to test my theories.  I'll try to explain it to you : Whenever I exert myself, either by not enough sleep, too much exercise, or just getting cold by not wearing the proper attire is usually when I get sick. It don't take much. I can run in the extreme cold and get contested in my lungs and by the next day I'll have a cold. Infection usually runs rampant in my weak mortal body. The theory I am testing is exposing myself to sick people and extreme physical exertion while   ingesting my special tea blend. If I get sick then I know my tea is all hype or in my mind.

I have enough product or plant to keep me through the winter:

 Tobacco grows well in the house. I even have seed for the next year. How it pollinated, I'm not sure. It is winter time.

As you see by all the green growth that it does not take much to use. I have more than enough leaves for my all use.

There were a couple of days I was sleep deprived and thought I was succumbing to a cold. I took a couple of sips of my tea and after a few hours of rest, I was back at hard labor.

My tea is not an energy drink. I do feel tired at times. I think of it more as a vaccine in a tea. Think about it. Vaccines contain toxins in order to make people immune to sickness. My tea is mildly toxic but also vitamin rich that I take everyday to ward off flu and the common cold. A vaccine is highly toxic which many take seasonally and contains no vitamins.

http://healthwyze.org/index.php/component/content/article/60-vaccine-secrets.html

I am starting to think that all the plants that have been vilified due to drug use by addicts might have some useful purpose in keeping us healthy and strong. With the proper dosage these plants could be used for healing.

Misuse of plants will cause us all to suffer. I would not be surprised if tobacco will some day become completely  illegal due to its misuse by a lot of misguided and individuals. For an example, think about the poppy plants. There are certain species of poppies that are illegal to grow. Not even for their beauty.

You can have the seeds of any of these poppies because the use of poppy seeds in cooking is fine. But cultivation of these species, growing the plants, is illegal and a federal crime. It is also illegal to have dried opium poppy seed pods or stalks on your property.

Certainly we do not want to become drug addicts. But who is to say that small doses of illegal substances from certain plants might  be healthy for us? Most of us will never know due to fear of incarceration.

Most everything has its proper usage. I think of glue. We don't want our kids to become glue sniffers for that dangerous high, but do we want to outlaw all glue due to a few misguided individuals? I'm not a long haired hippy in quest of the newest high but I'm individual that wants to help those from the scourges of sickness contained in our judicially allowed American diet.

It is getting bad that there. Just the other day I heard of those with brain tumors. One loved one of a friend of mine at work died after her diagnoses. She was only 58.

Diabetes is on the rise. Many are losing life and limb due to diabetes. I think there are solutions to all our ills but most cures are perhaps illegal to obtain. I think of those that run our society who wants all of us to be legal and then legally die prematurely from eating all their allowed legally approved junk foods .

By the way, I hope everyone had a great holiday. Don't eat all your sweet goodies all at once. Make it last till Halloween. A little sugar may not hurt you, but do not become a sugar addict. It's legal but not sensible.

I Have Become a Bucket Man

I use buckets continually. I use them for storing my clothes, papers, grains, and also use them for growing.

 Some indoor plants are now reaching the ceiling.

One day it is above freezing and the flowers bloom while other days it becomes frigid and cold.

Today, even the birds are lethargic.

The deer have lost their excitement knowing that there are more cold days ahead of them. I feel their pain but I've decided to bring a little green indoors.

I now have a Anaheim pepper plant that looks more like a tree than a plant. It likes being sheltered indoors.

I've been using lettuce. I like eating fresh lettuce in my tacos. They also like it indoors.

Have a good day. I think I'll start some cabbage plants indoors. It would be nice to have winter slaw.

My brother sent me this link. You can never get enough knowledge about foods. We may not be so concerned about living forever in a temporal body (How not to Die), but we want to be healthy enough to maintain a job.

Lately, I've dealt with many co-workers who have suffered colds. I've been working with the sick and they haven't disappointed me. They have been coughing, sneezing and breathing on me.  I've continued with my green tobacco elixirs (smoothies) and have yet to succumb to their illness. If tobacco (green not dried) doesn't help protect against viruses and germs, I want to know. I'm investigating its benefits by subjecting myself to sick people in the work place. The work place is the best place to be subjected to germs. Many in fear of losing their jobs continue to work while sick. Infection is rampant in a group of sick people.

Do your research into nicotine and you'll find statements like these:

Many explanations have been offered for the decreased incidence of some inflammatory and neurological diseases in smokers (1, 3, 12, 20, 27, 42). It is possible that the anti-inflammatory property of NT is, at least in part, responsible for the decreased incidence of these diseases in tobacco smokers (37).

The activity of the inflammatory mediators is not necessary for recovery from cold virus infection. Twenty-five percent of people who acquire cold virus infection do not develop symptoms. (4) People without cold symptoms recover from the infection as well as those who have symptoms.

How would you like to be one of those who might acquire a cold virus and yet have no symptoms? Scientists are finding that nicotine may help combat inflammatory responses? Do away with smoking tobacco and use it fresh and you might have a magic elixir for wellness.

In my case, it might be working. One week I felt like hell but yet had no symptoms of sickness other than tiredness,weakness and a headache (I could have been detoxing since I lost 4 lbs in a short time). No coughing, running nose, or sore throat. After that stage, I felt great. Following is the bedrock of my tobacco juice for work consumption. I am not recommending it to anyone. I'm just telling you what I am doing. Anything you do is at your own risk since nicotine is considered toxic.

1 small portion of green tobacco leaf (one table spoon or slightly more of shredded tobacco). More is never better when dealing with green tobacco.

1 cup of Sunny D orange and strawberry drink.

Cut up small portion of fresh tobacco leaf and blend it in your Nutri-Ninja (I never taste the tobacco).

I drink a small portion of the juice at every break time at work. 

These are my indoor plants. They are safe from the freezing temperatures outdoors.

Winter's Garden

My bucket plants still look mighty fine. I took them indoors two times before the hard frost hit here in Missouri.

I had some of my lettuce in tacos the other night. It tasted great. I also had a ripe tomato. I had already harvested peppers so I'm saving those fresh ones growing in a bucket for later use.

"Gardening ain't over till we say it's over."

"Accurate weather forecasting is essential to winter's gardening."

"People used to fetch a bucket of water when in need; now it's green produce."

"Survival food stores in buckets; so does survival green food."

"Growing in buckets is as essential as storing survival food."

"Give us your buckets and we will grow you a garden of food."

"Food grown in the winter has no bugs."

I like to read about centenarians. The aged are a blessing to us and inspires us to grow old gracefully. We can learn a lot by their example with what time we do have on this earth.

Jeralean Talley was one of those beautiful ladies that lived well past a hundred. She passed on to glory land at the age of 116. She had many hobbies that included fishing, bowling, making quilts, sewing dresses and watching her favorite television shows. She also liked playing slots at casinos.

Her diet consisted of eating comfort foods like chicken wings and Hog Head Cheese.

She attended  Missionary Baptist Church and no doubt had the support of many people who loved and prayed for her. She had one child, a daughter, Thelma Holloway, born in 1937. She also had many grandchildren.

Jeralean lived by the golden rule. She treated others the way she would like to be treated. She had faith in God and replied about her longevity, "Don’t ask me; ask Him,” She said. “That’s in the Lord’s hands.”

Her favorite foods were potato salad, honey buns, McDonald’s chicken nuggets, and Wendy’s chili. According to the Detroit Free Press, she drinks black coffee with sugar every morning.

She’s lived an active life. As a child, she worked long hours picking cotton and peanuts, and digging sweet potatoes. Her exercise consisted of waving her arms and kicking her feet.

There are many factors that contribute to longevity.  You might think that our life style has very little to do with it. I differ. It does matter. Sure, you may not live past a hundred but by living well we certainly can add years to our lives.  I think the most important thing is the quality of life than the quantities of years. We may not live long but the time we have in living we want them to be the best (healthiest) years of our lives.

EVERY DAY IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR IMPROVEMENT IN OUR BLESSED EXISTENCE---Larry Zoro

Let's Exercise Our Necks

"Thy neck is like the tower of David builded for an armoury, whereon there hang a thousand bucklers, all shields of mighty men" Song of Solomon 4:4.

There is no doubt about it. The neck is a valuable part of our body.

 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_and_neck_anatomy

Very few people exercise it. I wonder why? I remember as a kid I was made to do somersaults at school and ended up injuring my neck. I had years of pain before I found the solution to my ills. I started exercising my neck at a gym using a specialized neck exercise machine. It took only a week of exercise before all the pain left.

You would think that I would have continued exercising my neck but I have been very neglectful. Sometimes you feel that exercise is not that important. I often wonder, do I have to exercise every part of our body? Perhaps for a healthy and extended life we do.

I have found that extreme headaches were relieved by placing a massager at the back of my neck near the base of my skull. It relieved my head aches instantly. I recently have been having tinnitus (hearing pulsing noises in the ears). There are many reasons that can cause it but it has made me think about my neck and its circulation.

I tried a simple exercise where I lay across my bed with my head extended. I rotated my head in a circular motion. I was amazed at all the bone cracking sounds that I heard as I rotated my neck. Well, that was enough for me to start exercising my neck again. 

If you have problems with you head, maybe you ought to do some neck exercises. I know it would improve circulation. I don't know about you but I want increase blood flow through my neck to my head. Maybe I'll become a genius with more blood flow to the many parts of my brain. At least I have already started becoming smarter in wanting to exercise one of the most important parts of my body. How about you? Are you up for the neck exercise challenge for a healthier head?

Easy Indoor Bug Removal

You might think you need to spray bug killer at this time of the year. Lady bugs are really bad at coming indoors. The simplest method of bug removal is by using a Dirt Devil vacuum.

Why mess around with ceiling bugs by catching them the old fashioned way by using your hand and tissue. Make your life more easier by using a hand vac with nozzle. I've had mine for three years.

After the Frost

I keep an eye on the weather report. Frost came a few days ago. I had the whole family help with the late harvest of tomatillos, and tomatoes. I also took my bucket crops inside my studio.

The rye and wheatgrass can survive a little cold.

I took my cilantro inside.

I also took my tobacco plants inside. I use a quarter of a leaf in my smoothies and orange juice blend.

I would like my tobacco plants to seed. I am starting to see flower buds. Maybe I'll get blessed with seed for next year.

It was a nice morning after work today. I like the fog. It is going to warm up to the 60-70's.

I tried to get a picture of a cardinal. The bird would not face me.

One last picture before resting for another late night shift. Salad anyone?

GOOD MORNING!  I would say "Good night" but I sleep during most of the day.

Rolled Oats: Food for Champions

Everybody wants a chunk of our money. Some of the most advertised health foods come from another country. Maca is one that you can buy in powder form. It only cost around 40 dollars for a pound but it is great for smoothies. It will turn impotent men into sexual dynamos. At least that is what is promoted.

I have a theory that health peddlers go to different countries and promote another country's products in order to sell it at a huge profit. We don't complain for the huge prices due to the fact that you can't grow it in your own backyard. For instance, maca only grows in cold climates and high altitudes like Peru. Peddlers have made a lot of money on maca products.

Take a look at these happy people and their cash crop.

http://www.nutracrunch.com/heritage.htm

Thank God for rich foreigners that buy (Peruvian) products and help keep those farmers in Peru alive. What is money if you can not share it with others? Right?

I could almost sell you anything with a value report on my product, beautiful packaging, and alluring photos.

You can make even more money on your product by placing it in capsules and medicinal bottles. Don't you want to become healthy and have sexual vitality?

Now here comes Larry Zoro to spoil it all: LOOK FOR CHEAP PRODUCTS THAT ARE HEALTHY AND DO NOT BE TAKEN IN BY THE HEALTH FOOD SCAMMERS.

Here is a sample of my scamming product for oats:

I know it is a tremendously high price for oats. Oats are usually cheap. However, I believe they will be going up in price. Oats are not at this time a cash crop but perhaps someday farmers will make huge profits in growing it.

Oranges used to be cheap. But what I have seen years ago is that they would rather charge huge prices for orange products than give us a deal. I remember an old report by "Sixty Minutes" showing heaps of oranges in California being thrown away in order to inflate prices. Now that the orange industry is more manageable they have been hit by bad weather and diseases that will cause the prices to go up even higher.

"The US government expects this season’s yield of Florida oranges to be down 17 per cent on last year, at 135million boxes, because cold weather and ‘spotty’ rainfall have meant smaller oranges and fewer fruit per tree.The state’s orange groves have also been ravaged by the deadly, incurable ‘greening disease’, which originated in Asia and forces farmers to uproot trees.Millions of dollars have been spent on aerial pesticide spraying in an attempt to reduce the population of the insect that spreads the disease – the citrus psyllid."

Sometimes you reap what you sow when you try to cheat the public--Larry Zoro

Let's get back to oats:

"Nevertheless, demand for oats has been falling for nearly a century, ever since mechanized equipment started taking over for horses on farms and roads. In fact, global acreage devoted to oats has fallen by 58 percent just in the past decade, according to General Mills. That’s in part because oats aren’t a particularly efficient or profitable crop. It takes more seed to produce an acre of oats than it does to produce an acre of other major crops, like corn. According to the USDA’s Economic Research Service, the average revenue per acre of corn in 2012 was $1,073. For soybeans, it was $596. For oats, it was a mere $245."

When the demand for oats increase, it too will be an expensive health food worthy of high prices like maca and its special advertising campaign.

"In a perfect world, that wouldn’t be the case. Oats are the most nutritious of the big grains. They’re loaded with protein, with a range of that nutrient of between 12 percent and 24 percent, similar to soybeans. The World Health Organization says they’re about as good a source of protein as meat, milk and eggs. More famously, oats are thought to reduce the risk of heart disease. There was a demand spurt in the late 1980s when research into this connection was published, and an even bigger one a decade later after the Food and Drug Administration issued guidelines for food marketers who want to make heart-health claims for oats (a product must contain at least 0.75 grams of soluble fiber per serving.) General Mills made hay of such claims ever since in selling Cheerios."

Enjoy your oats while you can without having a need in buying expensive foreign health foods. Appreciate their low prices before you see an ad like the one I shown you pasted in this blog. If only I had a sexy model to promote my oats, I might have had a sale or two.

October 25th

Yesterday there was a beautiful evening.

I am preparing the week with making wheat/rye grass juice. I also threw in a few dandelions and Greek oregano.  I only drink juice once a day. Two cubes of green and one of watermelon rind with a 1/4 leaf of tobacco.

I perfected my evening smoothie: I use 1/2 milk- chocolate cocoa mix, peanut PBfitpowder, banana, hand full of spinach, quarter of tobacco leaf, and a little kale. It was great. It energized me. I stayed up till 3 am in the morning.

Tonight is work at my all night job. I be taking a bowl of meat in cooked rolled barely with a little cheese. It will be smothered in hot sauce. For my first break I will eat some plain yogurt that I have added a dash of brown sugar and fresh apple chunks. I also bring my orange juice with blended tobacco leaf (1/3 leaf).

I was reading about the toxicity of buckwheat greens. I found this great saying, "The Latin expression dosis sola facet venenum (the dose makes the poison) attributed to the ancient Romans could be applied here. A small quantity of buckwheat greens (or buckwheat lettuce as it is often called) in an individual diet could allow for healthy nutritional benefits without the negative effects of large amounts."  

I found the same thing by using green tobacco leaf, the dose makes the poison.  If a person takes too much tobacco leaf, they can become nauseous, get chills with tiredness. The thing I have been learning is that too much of anything could be bad. A person could overdose on vitamins or water. In large quantities anything can become toxic.

This is the first time I have grown lettuce in a bucket. I can't wait for a fresh salad. I should now try spinach and perhaps kale.

I now have my onions outdoors. They look mighty fine.

Happy Halloween from my house to yours. Try not to overdo on the sweets. Remember the sales after Halloween. It is time to look for store specials.

Today's Gardening

My Goji vines are looking great. They love buckets.

Cilantro grows well in small containers.

Lettuce is starting to take off.

Green onion starts look mighty fine.

 

They're ugly but they're mine.

My daughter likes to carve my pumpkins.
