Lapping Around the Sun

    I don't know what has gotten into me, but lately I've wanted to try to grow some potted plants.  No expert here!  Entirely a novice! Just going to try my luck, and see what results!      What's in the pots?  No hot peppers, but some non-heated ones, and some sweet peppers, strawberries, zucchini, sage, oregano, basil, and cherry tomatoes.  I hope to have some beginner's luck!      It kinda helps me remove my mind from my health issues.  No fever, no coughing, no difficult breathing, but repeated diarrhea attacks.  It seems like most of, in spite of the pancrelipase I'm taking, what I eat goes through me like bowel cleaner, and I'm drained of energy.  I drink lots of fluids, but it seems it contributes to the problem.  Yes, I think of kidney failure, but it seems I'd be having other symptoms too.  I don't know.  I may make a trip to an emergency room soon.  I've had this proble...

     I heard that when it comes to vegetables, one should avoid heating them above about 105 degrees, so that the enzymes aren't destroyed.  So, I thought I'd run some veggies through the food processor and smother some cooked pasta that I cooled with some crumbled up left over meat loaf that contained little more than rice and old fashioned rolled oats.      After tasting (and enjoying) dish, I wished I had squirted a bit of lime over it all.  Besides that, I thought it was quite delicious, and I will do it again.      What did I put in it?      Tomatoes, broccoli sprouts, sweet peppers, zucchini, cucumber, basil leaves, cold pressed olive oil, and Italian seasoning.
