Where I have I heard about these foods before?: “We find that the top sources of priority micronutrients are organs, small fish, dark green leafy vegetables, bivalves, crustaceans, goat, beef, eggs, milk, canned fish with bones, mutton, and lamb.”

Interesting tool: Wood splitting sword.

Question I’m Asking

Recipe Corner

Comment of the Week

“I’ve made my husband (and best friend) of 44 years a handmade card and tomorrow night we will dress up and go to a Valentine’s Day Dinner & Dance featuring big band style music. He will write me a “Daily Sweet” email as he’s been doing (daily) for almost ten years.”
