Tank birthday, 55+ years

. Love Blueberries . I swear by them . I can get them fresh too if I drive 4/5 hours north and take my bear spray in July

Here on eastern Long Island I am surrounded by blueberry farms along with apples, peaches, pumpkins and most other things.

Interesting had no idea blueberries need a special soil I thought . I live in the fruit belt I thought it was special guess not. Just apples and asparagus pumpkins potatoes blueberries raspberries honey strawberries potatoes onions cherries ect all within 10 minutes . So I have no excuse not to have a better diet and lose some blubber . So PLEASE send me the drink recipe . I am very curious if it will help my pain which is very similar to Dales

Hey I wonder if you find an honest one Like I have . A big thing in fruit farming is to hire bee keepers to bring their hives into orchards to cross pollinate. If the guy doesn't spray which they wont if the bees are there than cant get better than that . I will ask my guy . Thanks for the info. Everybody is into the almighty dollar . I was just in a very large store here called Canadian Tire they had over 365 thousand dollar loss in a year to theft . Wonder why packages are what they are ? Now everything locked in cages

Even if their on good flowers and necter, in fall all the honey is taken away from the hive and their put on sugar syrup to over winter. They would normally live on honey stores. Its no where near as nutritious as honey and the bees suffer. Then, they store a lot of that syrup in the hive and it ends up in the honey next season.

A few years ago I had so many flatworms that I could hardly see any rock that wasn't covered in them.

I did absolutely nothing and in a few months, they disappeared. I don't know why.


We do not eat any canned soup. I make my own. Soup is one of the easiest and cheapest things to make. I make a lot of Manhattan clam chowder. It is a lot healthier than New England chowder




Of course we use a lot of garlic. I eat some every morning. I make this thing with fresh garlic, (from our farms here, not Mexico) and put it in a big jar with chopped ginger and local honey. It stays like that for 6 months to a year, then I eat a piece of it every morning. It's supposed to make you live forever, or at least grow hair

Just a story not criticizing. My wife and I went to the east coast . In New Brunswick there is a place called Bishops Island . You can only access it by car at low tide . On that island that was owned by the owner of CP rail who was responsible for completing the cross country railway. is a huge residence with its own water treatment plant , and fire fighting pumps that feed hydrants surrounding the mansion unheard of stuff in those days .
Anyway we saw people Clamming so we talked to them. They told us that they have to put them in salt water for days to let them filter out the E.coli that comes from farmers fields mostly runoff from cattle farms

Freenow. I will give you the recipe, but she has MS, so I don't know if it works on different pains.

Get some fresh, loose beets. About 4 or 5 very big like oranges or grapefruits. Loose carrots. Big ones, about 5 or 6 of the largest you can get. A bunch of celery.
A couple of apples. Don't peel anything.

Juice all of that.

Then get a large bag of frozen mixed berries, a quart of Tart unsweetened cherry juice, Ginger about as big as your hand. Powdered turmeric. 4 tablespoons. Black pepper about a teaspoon. A teaspoon of cinnamon. Ceylon cinnamon is best but any kind you have is fine.

Put all of that in a blender. Put it through a sieve and mix it with the other stuff.

Thats it. I freeze 3 quarts of it and put the last one in the fridge that she drinks about 5 oz every morning.
If you do that, you live forever.

When you posted a picture of a skull with the nerve paths on it I realized a lot of my problems were through the jaw area so maybe maybe not we will see Thank You

Any reduced inflammation may help your situation. Just a thought. Natural remedies are often overlooked in favor of rolling a pill. At worst you will get a 5oz. jolt of good things.

Beauty read about what it ( cherry Juice ) alone can do so I found a bottle of concentrate on amazon that says 100 % pure and is 16 ounce it will make quite a bit . So my wife will laugh so what . It says on AI for what its worth great by itself fo0r sleep , and shoulder pain . So your total recipe will make me Superman . Cant wait.

 

[Paul B]

After you blend the berries and ginger, you may have to add a little water to get it through the sieve. Unless you use some more cherry juice.
The stuff doesn't taste too bad. The apples are just there for the taste which is kind of earthy. I would drink t myself, but it takes a little time to prepare so I use it all for my wife, but make alot and freeze it. Don't leave it in the fridge for more than a week unless you freeze it because it's fresh vegetables.

No need for vitamins if you drink this

Yesterday my wife made a huge dinner of corned beef and cabbage for Saint Patrick's day which is on Tuesday.

Then a friend of ours who owns a large Italian/Polish restaurant invited us there on Tuesday for a St. Pats dinner. All expenses paid so how could we refuse?

So we ate the Corned Beef yesterday.

She is a real Sweetheart to do this for us. We have some really great friends here and we feel blessed for it.

Now That is funny I am Irish . My Mother made that all the time in the good old pressure cooker. My Wife's birthday is on St Patrick's day ( not Irish ) . We are going to a local higher end restaurant for ......... Lobster Month specials .

Atoll sets his alarm for around 1 PM his time to read what us early birds write

 

[atoll]

You guys have any cures for flatworms?

My tank is 365 gals and i dont think its a bad infestation. I suck out abot 10 a day. I refuse to use any type of quick fixes.

Weird thing. I live in the state of green new scam, newscum. We have electricity blackouts all the time. Last night power was out for 7 hours. My battery backup lasts 3 hours, then it was two battery powered airstones and a big cup with me agitation water all night. This morning, im agitated..ha.
After all this, this morning I had about 70-80 flatworms on the front glass. The turkey battery and I were busy. Wo Der why they all came out. Low oxygen, lack of flow? At least i might have made a dent in them.

Often pests just die out like flatworms. However wrasse like the six line wrasse will eat them..I think @Paul B has a few small wrasse.

I never need an alarm clock because I seem to have one built into my head which goes off at the same time every morning

 

[Paul B]

I do. Actually, I have many wrasses including a 6 line. But there is only so many flatworms a fish can eat. My wrasses were so fat, they could hardly swim but they didn't make a dent in the thousands of flatworms I had.

I don't like lobsters. As a kid, my Dad owned a seafood market and any lobsters that died, we had to eat because you are not allowed to sell dead lobsters. I got tired of them. My Mom used to give me a lobster for lunch in grammar school. I used to trade my teachers for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

I never need an alarm clock because I seem to have one built into my head which goes off at the same time every morning

I also don't need an alarm clock because I have a built in alarm clock too. Unfortunately, it is set at 2:10 every morning so I have a lot of time to kill which is why I am on here.

I am normally walking to the beach at this time but it is raining so hard now and the wind would push me into the surf.

Not you atoll uses his alarm because of the time difference 6 hours or so ahead of us. As to Lobster I have said this before somewhere. On our East coast trip we did a boat Lobster tour , and learned quite a bit about their life cycle . They molt their shells every year and try to hide like a blob on the ocean floor till the new one grows back . Anyway they told us that was how people knew you were poor. They got Lobster Sandwiches for lunch every day

Another fish for my new tank . If you don't have flatworms what do you feed them ?
