100% Organic!

Another lost blog post from January 11, 2015!

I grabbed my cape and rushed out of the house on this rainy day over to the bagel shop.  While waiting for my coffee, another patron mentioned the tag on my coat. Knowing I've owned this old thing at least 15 years, I couldn't fathom what she was talking about. 
I gave her a confused look, "tag?" 
Sure enough, a bright green tag that said ORGANIC was stuck to my side. I had been grocery shopping late last night. I had a good laugh and thanked her for saying something.
I've been labeled a lot of things before but this one's a first!

A Day With IZZY STRADLIN

Image
This is an update to a blog that I posted several years ago, a true story about a magical day I spent hanging out with Guns N Roses guitarist Izzy Stradlin in 1988. November 23, 2012 It took over 24 years for the stars to align in such a way that Izzy and I would end up in the same place again. Quite honestly, I'm surprised it took that long, with me always traveling back and forth to many of the same cities he's known to frequent. I always imagined that when the day came that I would cross paths with him again, it would be in a casual situation where I could pull up a chair and smile and speak quietly and naturally. Unfortunately, that's not how it went...  Right before Thanksgiving, I received an email with a PDF attachment from a generous Christian friend of mine. It was a ticket to see the last show of Guns N Roses residency at the Hard Rock Hotel. He refused to let me pay him for it, just said he couldn't go and wanted me to have the ticket. Knowing Izzy Strad

How To Juice Wheatgrass Using A NutriBullet

Image
The benefits of wheatgrass are widely debated. I just like the way it tastes. My personal belief is that anything that helps restore alkalinity to the blood is a good thing. Rich in chlorophyll, wheatgrass aids in detoxing the body and liver as well. Wheatgrass is higher in vitamin E per ounce than other green vegetables. All I know is that drinking green plant juice has to be better for you than not drinking it. Here's how I "juice" my wheatgrass using the NutriBullet extraction method: Buy a flat of organic wheatgrass. Trim the grass as close to the root as possible.  1/2 flat = 1 serving Put wheatgrass in a strainer and wash/rinse thoroughly. Place wheatgrass into small size NutriBullet cup. Add approximately 1 inch of purified water to cup. Add slightly more water for double serving (but not double the amount or it will become too watered down.) Experiment with the amount of water that works for your own personal taste. This is just what works for

Goodbye Hard Rock Hotel

Image
...from the eyes of a former employee Sunrise from the parking garage after a Guns N Roses concert In the late 1990s when I was planning to make my move from Indiana to somewhere in the southwest desert, I learned that a Hard Rock Hotel had just opened in Las Vegas. After doing research on cost of living and crime rate in the area, at that time, I learned it was similar to my hometown. One synchronicity after another occured and it seemed like all roads pointed to Las Vegas. I called the Rock Spa at the Hard Rock Hotel and innocently told them about myself and my skills and wanted to know what I needed to do to get a job there. They told me, "Just get here first." So I did, in September 1999, one week before my birthday, I arrived in fabulous Las Vegas where an apartment I rented long distance and my first self-employment booth rental gig were waiting for me. I had saved a ton of money from being an OPI product educator and knew I needed time to heal from a lifetime of
