1. Snack I love… I am constantly on the lookout for sweet and tasty (and healthy) snacks. We found these freeze-dried fruit snacks… Crispy Fruit (from the company Crispy Green)…and love them! There are no other ingredients in them other than the fruit itself. We’ve tried all of them, and they are ALL great. My…
1. Movies I like… I like movies that are based on true stories. And I really like movies based on true stories about real people that have done something extraordinary. Sure, they make you feel good… and are inspirational… but I love that they expand our minds on what is possible, break down limiting beliefs…
1. A poem I have revisited these past two weeks… There are a couple of poems that I have kept with me since high school. This one… The Man In The Arena… is a great one. I have posted it before, but I’m reposting it for those that are being criticized by people who have…
1. Series we watched this week (and you should too!)… We finally watched the Painkiller series on Netflix. This drama, starring Matthew Broderick, exposes Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family’s role in creating the opioid epidemic that is STILL wreaking havoc on our country.

1. Healthy snack we experimented with this week… I am constantly trying to take the unhealthy foods that I love and find or create a healthier version of them (I even tried to make a healthy version of sausage gravy. Didn’t go too well!). This week, Lana and I made sweet potato chips. We sliced…
1. Movie I saw last week (and you NEED TO also!)… We finally made it to the movie Sound of Freedom. This is a movie about child sex-trafficking and has shaken everyone that I know that has seen it. Oddly, there was A LOT of resistance in getting it released, and even more oddly, it…
1. Recurring quote I keep seeing… Jeep Wranglers have the spare tire on the back of the vehicle. They often have logos, images or quotes. I love the one that is one big smiley face, but there is one that I have seen numerous times, on numerous Jeeps, in numerous different states. I’ve taken a…
1. Concerning news I read this week… In case you missed it… Walmart is being sued because the fish oil they sell in their stores (Spring Valley) does not contain ANY omega-3’s found in fish oil. According to the article I read (https://www.courthousenews.com/walmart-must-face-suit-over-deceptive-fish-oil-labeling/), “Walmart will have to face claims that its fish oil supplement is…
1. Very important video clip I saw this week (and you need to also!)… As part of an Australian parliamentary inquiry into Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine rollout, questions were asked about Pfizer’s research on the vaccine’s ability to prevent transmission of the virus. The clip below shows one of Australia’s Senators trying to get a straight…
