Healthy Diet Joke. Veggies


“In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth and populated the Earth with broccoli, cauliflower and spinach, green and yellow and red vegetables of all kinds, so Man and Woman would live long and healthy lives.
Then God brought forth the potato, naturally low in fat and brimming with nutrition.

And Satan peeled off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy center into chips and deep-fried them. And Man gained pounds.
God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.
Then Satan created HMOs.”

How many olive-oil-rich meals does it take before your heart starts to benefit? It's possible your body will start reaping rewards after a single meal.
In a study of people with high cholesterol, their blood samples showed less clotting potential just 2 hours after eating a breakfast containing phenolic-rich olive oil.  From:

Ray did some more painting on the new fence boards this morning.  He hasn’t had time to work here for a while, so we are behind on that.

As I had put my back out wrestling with a 40 lb box of cat litter, Jay and I went into our little town. It didn't take the chiropractor long to find the offending part of my spine and snap it back into position.   But first, while waiting for my appointment, we moved some more stuff around in the RVPort, and loaded more yard sale clothes into the van.  I also put a different cord on my PC, and voila, it works now, thank goodness.  I get aggravated at the keyboard on my laptop, and it doesn't have all my bits and pieces working from it, like my camera and printer.

As I have to take Jay into the next town, Conroe, tomorrow, there wasn’t any sense in making a trip to drop the clothes off there today.
