Remember Keep a Journal/Food Diary? It works.
The study, published online Wednesday in the journal Cell Metabolism, found eating a snack high in fat and sugar every day alters the reward circuits in human brains to create lasting preferences. Fatty and sugary foods train your brain to hate healthier options: Yale study — New York Post, March 22, 2023 HT to Sally […]
Here’s another post in my nearly world famous Electronic Sticky Note series. Posting the link here as summer is starting soon and I need better salads than the prepacked kits I tend to buy and eat. Click for the recipe https://thefirstmess.com/2023/05/24/hummus-crunch-salad/
On average, 86 percent of people surveyed for Statista’s Consumer Insights in 21 countries said that their diet contained meat – highlighting that despite the trend around meat substitutes and plant-based products, eating meat remains the norm almost everywhere in the world.

The first written records of pancakes come from the ancient Greeks and Romans. Around 500 B.C.E., Athenian poet Cratinus described “a [flat cake] hot and shedding morning dew.” Some 600 years later, in the late second century C.E., Greek physician Galen included a recipe in his On the Properties of Foodstuffs that’s similar to how […]
It looks good. That’s about what I had done at my salon two weeks ago. No appointments for April. I think I may need to buy a clippers. Do you have any recommendation on hair clippers?
Did you do it outside? I keep thinking it would make an awful mess doing it over the bathroom sink.
Sorry no recommendations on clippers. I borrowed my son’s clipper and all I know is that it is of professional quality. I did my buzz outside because there’s just too many tiny short hairs that will go EVERYWHERE. I’m hoping this buzz cut lasts long enough so that the barbers reopen or I can get another buzz with borrowed equipment.
I think that’s what I’ll do, clip outside. Did you bring a mirror with you, or just do it by feel?
I will go search Amazon for professional quality hair clippers.
No mirror. The spots you’ll miss will be on the back side. Tips from Dr. Lee – 1) take your time. Overall it will take 10-15 minutes. 2) move the clipper slowly rather than quickly. 3) use both side to side and front to back motions. On my first attempt I missed a few spots all on the back side!

What do you think of this statement?
I would agree but also think we will never get a true accurate number of COVID-19 fatalities. Cause of death will get listed as “pneumonia” or sudden cardiac death (MI).
Very true. And then there are also the deaths of people who couldn’t get emergent care because the priority was treating patients with COVID-19. And then longer-term deaths due to people unable to receive their ongoing routine care on time because the medical system is overwhelmed.
