  • It’s ok to cry

    If it’s getting to you – and it is getting to everyone – it’s ok to cry. You may need to just let yourself cry to feel all the yuckiness. Don’t feel bad. You are light. You are good. You are God’s child.

  • Help your body deal with the smoke (updated)

    Here is a link (purpleair.com) to an up-to-date map showing multiple air quality sensors.  This site is better than the official government sites which show only very limited sensors and does not have real-time data.  (I have to ask the government air quality agencies what the fuck is going on since we taxpayers are paying…

  • Avoid honey

    sfgate.com: If you don’t eat honey because you are a vegan, avocados might be off-limits, too Basically it’s best to avoid the use of honey. I treat honey as a very special medicine. Therefore I keep a small amount that I may only use a couple times per year. It can be useful when you…

  • New, amazing uses of curry powder

  • I finally figured out how to make coffee identical to Starbucks

    Making coffee identical to Starbucks isn’t simply a matter of getting a bag of Pike roast coffee from the store and making it at home. As I suspected for a long time, the temperature of the water is key. If the water is too hot the coffee will not taste right. For me coffee made…
