Like a kid in a superfoods candy store

Superfoods are a food group to me, I feel a huge difference when I include them in my diet.

I get about half of my superfoods from Z-Natural Foods .

The rest I get from Walmart (surprisingly), Natural Zing, or other random places around the Internet (even Etsy at times).

The best deals and variety seem to be found at Z-Natural Foods , however.

Let's see what was in my latest order:

I bought the Bee Pollen, Cacao Wafers, and Lion's Mane Extract for specific purposes. I like to sprinkle the Bee Pollen on a banana smothered with sunflower seed butter and honey. I call it a "raw twinkie". The cacao wafers are for making chocolate. I have new molds I haven't even used yet! The time to make chocolate is near.... The Lion's Mane Extract is for my wife. She likes it better than psych meds, and may help her get off of them entirely one day.

The rest goes into smoothies. Here's the smoothie I made for lunch today:

  • 1 banana
  • 1/4 avocado
  • 1 tsp Chaga powder
  • 1 tbsp instant mushroom coffee powder
  • 1 tbsp Pumpkin Seed Protein
  • 1/4 tsp Triphala
  • 1 tsp Green Power
  • 1 tsp Beet Rood powder
  • 1 tbsp raw local honey
  • 1 "squirt" liquid stevia
  • enough water to blend

Throw that into your favorite blender and blend until smooth. You'll be feeling good in no time.

Without Z-Natural Foods , I can afford to do this with one or two ingredients at a time.
Z-Natural Foods gives me the ability to add variety to my daily smoothie regimen. I suggest you give them a try. Use this link for a 10% off discount code.

Ebay Sales

I have a love/hate relationship with Ebay.

I have love/hate relationship with Ebay . On one hand, I can find really great deals on hard-to-find items. Often better than any local store or garage sale. I've picked up laptops for $0.01 (not counting shipping, which was affordable anyway). I can get high top Vans for under $30, shipped to my door (sometimes new, often in great condition). You can get out-of-season holiday candy. I just bought some Cadbury Mini Eggs for...

New Static Blog for 2024

I've moved to Pelican for blogging in 2024. Here's why.

Last year I was using Dotclear for my blogging. Side note: I find it interesting that their main site at dotclear.org, which uses its own software I'm pretty sure, is down at the time of writing this. Good thing they have a GitHub account. At some point, the site started serving up the White Screen Of Death. I decided then that I...

Slackware-Libre BASH script

A script to liberate a stock Slackware-15.0 installation. Motivation:  Freenix never released an iso for 15.0.  That inspired me to write a script that could transform a stock Slackware installation into something in the spirit of Freenix. Note:  This is NOT endorsed by Slackware proper (but I do …

Hardware choices in 2023

What am I computing with these days? ARM64 never lived up to the hype, Intel Atom is showing its age.  But, finally, System76 is shipping free/open firmware.  And now I'm mining DERO. Background: Libreboot, ThinkPads, and all that. Back at the end of 2017, I was fairly satisfied with …

My UNIX usage in 2023

2022 - A Year In Review

2022 was probably the worst year I will ever experience.  Here's why.

     In the early part of 2020 my wife got the idea to buy an undeveloped piece of land to start building our dream home on. She searched around online, and found the two adjacent one-acre plots for sale in the Sangre de Cristo mountains (near Mineral Hill, NM) that we eventually ended up buying with inheritance money around June of that year. We were able to get the two acres for close to $28,000....
