  • Peach flavored white tea

    For the past few years I’ve been trying out a lot of different types of premium tea. They often have interesting names like ‘Honey Orchid Black’ and ‘Monkey-Picked Teeguanyin’. They are certainly different in taste and often uniquely exquisite. But after trying all these different ones I ended up liking a basic, flavored white tea…

  • Low income but high-quality entertainment

    Can it be considered entertainment when you are the one creating the music? I think so. I think a player enjoys what they are playing as much as someone listening. When I think about all the “events” that occur all the time, much of it seems like junk food to me and doesn’t appeal to…

  • A low income but very healthy diet

    Lately I’ve been living on an extremely thin budget but I’m still managing to take care of myself and eat very well. My philosophy is that if you do not eat a lot, then make sure that what you do is is extremely healthy. One of those extremely healthy dishes I’ve been enjoying is simple…

  • The Great Equalizer. The Great Deequalizer.

    I do not have a set answer for the provacative title of the post. It is only a thought, an impression that came to me. But I will say this: Any society where brahmanic cultivation is the purview of only a privileged segment of the population is totally fucked. Entitlement without brahmanic cultivation is a…

  • Mineral Water and Juice

    A healthy alternative to drinking plain juice or plain mineral water (a.k.a. sparkling water) is to mix the two together. It is a unique taste that one has to get used to, but it is very healthy and very refreshing. Lately instead of my regular morning baby glass of tangerine juice I now have mineral…

  • 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 actually got this first idea from my Mom. She said she was using turmeric powder on salad. I didn’t have turmeric powder but do have curry powder. It turns out it’s excellent on salad. I really like it with chlorella. Here is another creation I just came up with: In a small bowl put…
