Ian's Consultation

I slept until 6:00.  Imagine that!  I started the day by reading my Bible chapters.

I ran the mower today from 8:00 until 10:30.  When the mower ran out of gas, I  quit.  I swept the porch around the dining room after I put up the mower.  John prepared lunch, and I fixed Eddie's mandarin juice.

I took Eddie his juice, then got my shower.  John went for his daily dip in the river.  On his way back from the river he always walks by the cabin and shouts out, "Lunch in five".  I was here about three weeks before I figured out what he was saying.

Ian was nowhere to be found when it was time for lunch.  I looked in his cabin and in the office.  We decided to ring the bell up at the dining room and finally he came running down the hill from Jonathon's house

Lunch was delicious.  The food has tasted so good to me for the last couple of days!  We had grated coconut, custard apple, avocado, papaya, banana with macadamia nut spread, and sapadilla.  Ian was full of questions about the diet and lifestyle.

After lunch I checked emails and Facebook.  Not much from home today, so I played a couple of games of Mahjong Titans.

Consultation with Eddie was at 2:00.  Then we met with Ian for a very long consultation.  Ian is new to Nature Cure and has lots to learn and unlearn.  He is "building his house during the storm" so to speak.

Little things that came up during the consultation:
Your body can not digest anything that is more than 1 degree below body temperature.  Everything you eat should be body temperature but less than 105 degrees.

Don't live by an electric transformer.

Flouride is a deadly poison.  Don't use it.  It is a by-product of the aluminum industry, the fertilizer industry, and in the manufacture of high explosives.  It is used in rat poison.

Von Liebig's Law of the Minimum:  A plant's growth is limited by the least available nutrient in the soil.

Alcohol is a protoplasmic poison and we are protoplasm.

I practiced my flute.  It sounded awful as I am trying to learn to play high F, G, and A.

Supper was delicious.  We had the usual tomatoes, cucumber, sauerkraut, pecans, and dates.  Ian also had some celery from the garden.

Ian and I visited at the cabins about some of the ways he can incorporate the simple, natural lifestyle while living in an apartment in Sydney.  I suggested he find some markets where he can enjoy shopping for organic fruits and veggies; have lunches of ripe fruits and nuts; have salad dinners with sauerkraut, nuts and dates; find somewhere to exercise...maybe a Tai Chi class; find a church he can enjoy going to; pray; walk; be outside in the sun and fresh air as much as possible.

I watched some of the Eric Pearl DVD in the Living the Field The Biology of Transformation set while I knitted.  Then I read a little while.

To health and happiness.

Happy in the Garden

Yesterday I worked in the garden instead of walking around the neighborhood.  It is a different feeling. It's true that I only got in about 6500 steps by the end of the day instead of over 10,000, but it was a different feeling.  Travis planted some tomatoes and peppers, I cleaned the lower deck and pulled some weeds.  Lucy dug in the dirt and felt so happy.  I felt the same way. Working in the garden makes you feel happy and productive. I was puzzled by a plant growing in the herb garden as a weed.  I started pulling them out but decided to check if they are edible.  Edible weeds, such as dandelion,  can be used in our smoothies.  I put a picture on Facebook to ask for help identifying the weed, and the consensus is that it is plantain.  Some say edible and some say not, but I am inclined to think that it is edible.  My brother, Max, lives up in the mountains, and his neighbor says it is edible and the smallest leaves are best with...

The Lou Corona Story

Yesterday, we went to Magic Springs with our daughter, son-in-law and three grandchildren.  The landscaping there is beautiful this year.  This one little flower didn't let a little concrete stop it.     Lunch today was three bananas which I ate about 1:30.  I'm letting my body rest a little bit after eating too much food the last couple of days.  I did domestic chores today.  But Travis made a trip to the City Compost Facility for another load of compost.  We'll use it on the trees we still have left to plant. We have a volunteer tomato plant coming up in one of the garden beds.  It's doing pretty well, too.  I have it on my to do list to buy some more tomato cages. The arugula I planted is up. The kale Travis planted is up. The new plum tree is planted. Here is a volunteer Poke Salat that came with the blueberry plant.  Travis planted some more blueberries in the blueberry row that lines our driveway. The...

Alko Shredder

 It was chilly this morning, but I got out and worked a bit in the garden bed that had the strawberries moved out yesterday.  I fed it with the mineral supplement and fertilizer.  I started putting on compost, but ran out of time before I finished.  We are going to plant some kale in this bed. Bed #3 weeded, minerals added, fertilized, and partly composted. Travis and I went to an estate sale today.  First thing we saw was a garden shredder.  We bought it for $60.00 and brought it home.  There are lots of leaves in my yard that could be shredded. Our new used Alko shredder...made in Germany.    For dinner tonight I made a soup.  The inspiration came from Dara Dubinet on her You-tube video, but mine was different because I used what we had. My vegetable soup recipe:  Juice a beet, 6 carrots, 3 broccoli stalks, and a sweet potato.  Then heat a pot of water on the stove, but do not boil.  In the Vita-Mix, put 3 med...
