Doing it Veggie Style No this post is not about my love life. If it was, I would bore my readers to tears and I am trying to increase my hits, not bore people away. This post is about the amazing thing I learned while I have been on this ‘get fit’ journey. Turns out, … Read more here…

A Healthmaster Elite/Multiple Sclerosis ‘Get Fit’ Plan So the Banana Peanut Smoothie was actually pretty good. It wasn’t as incredibly super delicious as say, a Cookie Dough Nor’easter (the Cape Cod version of a DQ Blizzard), but it was ok.

It’s like my brain just can’t focus on anything.” Response from many non-MS’ers, “that’s cause you’re a space shot” or “well … Read more here…

Mulitple sclerosis meets smoothies I don’t actually have moves like Jagger. It would be cool if I did, but I don’t. About the only way someone could say I moved like Jagger was if that someone happened to be drunk and listening to Brown Sugar while they watched me try to recover from a near … Read more here…

Kale is the new black  I cannot put it off any longer. For almost forty years I have been shirking my vegetable consuming responsibilities and now it is time to face them.
