Yes. I unfriended her.

Eliza_Jazz · 12-15-2012, 09:18 AM

It may be just me, but I don't want to live in a mental place where I would feel that everyone is out there to get me and I need to walk around armed and look over my shoulder all the time. While there are dangerous people in the world.... most people, IMHO, are good.

Call me naive or crazy, but I have faith in my fellow human beings and that together we are all moving away from paranoia and mistrust of each other and toward a more peaceful society, away from the violence of previous centuries.

I did and it was worse. I'm just tired of the sweet taste. It'll be nice to have some pureed foods next week. I go to the surgeon on Thursday and that's when I should be moved to pureed---that includes pudding, yogurt, cottage cheese, cream soups, purreed soups, scrambled eggs.

You've worked too hard! What protein shakes do you like? I've been taking pure whey isolate and it's not too bad.

Did you make yourself some nice bone broth?

I truly believe bone broth is your answer:

Quote:

Ingredients:

4 pounds of beef marrow, knuckle bones, bits of leftover beef
3 pounds meaty rib or neck bones
4 or more quarts cold water
1/4 cup vinegar (See Resources)
3 onions, coarsely chopped (or your bag of collected frozen onion parts)
3 carrots coarsely chopped (I omit this sometimes)
3 celery sticks, coarsely chopped (I omit this if I don’t have celery)
celtic sea salt – optional – only after broth is completed (See Resources)
Preparation:

Place all of your bones that have meaty bits on them on a large cookie sheet (with sides) or roasting pan and brown in the oven at 350 degrees until well-browned (30-60 minutes usually).
Meanwhile, throw all of your non-meaty marrow bones into a stockpot, add the water, vinegar and vegetables. Let sit while the other bones are browning.
Add the browned bones to the pot, deglaze your roasting pan with hot water and get up all of the brown bits, pour this liquid into the pot. Add additional water if needed to cover the bones.
Bring to a boil and remove the scum/foam that rises to the top. No need to remove the floating fat. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for at least 12 hours and as long as 72 hours. The longer you cook the stock, the more rich and flavorful it will be.
After a 2-3 hours you will want to ‘rescue’ any of the meat you need for recipes or marrow that you’d like to eat. Using tongs find your marrow bones, pop out the marrow with a small knife and return the bone to the pot.
After you simmer for 12-72 hours, Sally Fallon now says this in the recipe in Nourishing Traditions which I love because it’s so true:
“You will now have a pot of rather repulsive-looking brown liquid containing globs of gelantinous and fatty material. It doesn’t even smell particularly good. But don’t despair. After straining you will have a delicious and nourishing clear broth that forms the basis for many other recipes in this book.“

Remove the bones with a slotted spoon and/or tongs. Strain the stock into a large bowl, then ladle into wide mouth mason jars. Let the jars sit until they are pretty cool, then freeze or refrigerate. You can remove the congealed fat after refrigerating or even freezing, if you want to reduce it a step.

I'm having a hard time getting the protein in when I use the powder so right now I'm back to using a premade from Sam's. It's called premiere, each shake is 11 oz and has 30 grams of protein which is half a day for me. I can usually get 2 of these in plus all my clear liquid(64 oz). It's drink, drink, drink till I go to bed but I've only not done it one or 2 times. It's super important to not get dehydrated at this point. Once I can get more in, I will move to my powders----I have a lot to try. Plus I can't use ice either and dh said they taste a lot better blended with ice. I have a mocha espresso one he liked.

I have not made the bone broth. I never got to the butcher for bones. Dh bought me organic chicken broth and I've been enjoying that most mornings and evenings.

I guess I'll have to wait till Monday. Dh can't pick it up today and they're closed tomorrow. It's over by his work so he can easily pick it up for me.

Well say what you will about guns and ammo. I for one am going to purchase all that I can on both counts. I have already purchased cases of ammo this morning and I will continue. If that makes me crazy psycho or unstable then so be it.

Doofus, hope I didn't offend you with something i wrote.

It was never my intention, nor do I think you are crazy.

chewiegand · 12-15-2012, 09:47 AM

Melinda---when I saw this recipe, I thought of you.

Cheese, Bacon, And Potato Pie

12 ounces of bacon
1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese
1/2 cup fontina cheese
1 onion
1 potato
6 eggs

Heat oven to 350F. Butter a 9 inch pie plate.
Cut bacon into pieces, fry until well cooked and crisp, set aside.
Grate cheese and peel and finely chop onion. Peel and grate potato.
In a large bowl, beat eggs. Add bacon, cheese, onion and potato, stir.
Pour mixture into prepared dish, and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until eggs are cooked.
Enjoy!

I get mine from the regular grocery store, sometimes I have to go to the butcher counter and ask, but often they have trays already sitting next to the meat.

Even chicken bones/carcass work.

The weather has been changing and everyone's skin and sinuses are super dry. I've never had such dry sinuses in my life! Painful! My kids' lips are cracking and bleeding, had to send two to the nurse yesterday to get help.

Boiling a pot of cinnamon water on the stove today to keep some humidity in the air.
