@DocPriyamMD Thanks for sharing on food and the new rules to stay safe.

If I buy store meats, I boil until fully cooked before I freeze them. But I always try the shorter route of food; from farmer to my kitchen.

Does this happen? My X handle changed on its own!

Saw someone responding to me and wondered why I was seeing a response not to me. Then I saw the strange handle. I've removed the strange one.

Fill the gourd with...

Stay tune for the step-by-step process

Caregiver wellbeing. The nature of careging is that we know the dangers but we forget since the other person needs us.
How do we enlighten society to remember caregivers, so they don't call to only ask about the wellbeing of the care receiver?

Family caregivers stay on duty 24 hrs; serving during the day and staying attentive at night, just in case they're needed.

We need lots of awareness creation.

How do you cover your gourd when there are no dry maize cobs nearby?

I have been fermenting milk in a plastic container, until I looked at my house deco and remembered that gourds were grown for a reason.

Help me solve this small lacking, how to cover the gourd.

@simongerman600 Those vegetable gardens grew great home managers as the women learned skills we are yet to see again: vegetables cultivation and management without outside inputs
They learned harvesting and storage to last until... Then the food recipes.

@Herbs__magic Which is the best way to consume Moringa powder? Can I add the powder to food while cooking?

[Building A Retirement After 50 @ThriveOver50]

@Herbs__magic @BarbaraOneillAU I'll remember this whenever I eat. Is it okay if I freeze lemons and grate into my plate of food?

Here are my food items

@drkasenene Emondo ya Papa

In homes of some communities, if you slaughter chicken, serve and the gizzard is missing, Papa will need to hear what happened.

What food choices did you make today?

Here's mine

[Building A Retirement After 50 @ThriveOver50]

@HerbalistChief Good to see my morning drink. The first drink I take, daily.

Can one consume too much of this Roselle Hibiscus?

[Building A Retirement After 50 @ThriveOver50]

@thegarybrecka It's hard to feed oneself. I have most of these food items but I forget to eat them.
Do I need to set reminders?

What do I eat after fasting for 16 hours? In Day 2 of my 31-day August intermittent fasting challenge, I share the foods and drinks I enjoyed while following a 16:8 intermittent fasting routine.

[Building A Retirement After 50 @ThriveOver50]

Let no one tell you otherwise!

It is hard changing your food habits, but it is doable, and the benefits are worth trying.
16 days and I am still focused because the lasting daytime energy is worth it.

Have you ever embraced a fasting challenge? Share one benefit from that journey.
