come to THINK of it…

a propos: the poetic packaging : Keats as only HE could rave…two hundred years ago agogo…when he was stricken with TBC..(which made him so much more craving for paradise foods, rare & only seasonally available in his time, even in England, where the Gulf Stream, set in the Silver Sea, makes for much milder temperatures…(yes! until the jet stream from our melting Arctic super fridge will derail it, thanks to : global warning: GLOBAL WARMING…)

So let’s be G O O D and live more COOOL – literally… and R E A -L L Y, PLEASE

Here comes my wise-ol’ woman’s ALTER EGO : LIVE LIKE EVE O’, LUTION, otherwise known as EVE ADAMS, for a day at a time, let’s call it , SALAD DAYS GAME… e.g.

NO SLAVING OVER A HOT STOVE (except for microwaving: sweet or not potatoes, coffee & tea, cacao/mocha mushrooms …which takes only minutes, not fossil-powered hours..)

My blog diary BLOG EN BLOC- AT LAST! – T O U N – LOCK! ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK…WISH ME WELL,,,AND I WISH Y O U WELL….WE CAN S H A R E EACH OTHER’S W E L L B E I N G.

IT’S ONLY 3 MONTHS TO YEAR’S END! CAN’T WAIT TO SEE THE FAT-AS-CAN-BE SANTA CLAUSES TAKING OVER, AS A COCA-COLA AD CAMPAIGN – WHAT AN ABSURDITY HERE IN THE TOP AUSSIE SUMMERTIME… (WE JUST HAD XMAS-IN-JULY! TURKEY/PUD & GLUEH-WINE -THANKS, A L D I !)

BUT BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE, LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO M E : WHY ON EARTH DID I BECOME A COVER GIRL ON MY OWN BOOK : COLORIFIC MANIFESTO IN MY OLDEN DAYS? IT’S THE TENTH ANNIVERSARY SINCE I’ VE HAD A FLU ! – IN BALI – OF ALL PLACES…SO I SPENT MY TIME THERE, RATHER MIND-FOGGY, & LYING DOWN A LOT, AND YET, IN A TYPICALLY LAID-BACK AUSSIE WAY.. (WHICH MY EDITOR, WHO TOOK THE PHOTO, FOUND WAS THE BEST ENTRY TO OPEN THE PAGES TO MY OWN LITTLE ODYSSEY AS A LIFELONG F E M I N I S T A..).

NB: I THINK I OWE YOU TO TELL THE FULL TITLE: ” A COLORIFIC MANIFESTO

For Women’s Waist & Disease Control” ! AND THEREBY HANGS A TALE…(to FOLLOW, BIT BY BIT I PROMISE…)

Half a year has passed – from ONE EQUINOX TO THE OTHER….but: promise NOT forgotten! Here’s half a dozen or-so cool recipes I have created in the meantime:

1 : Thinking of U K R A I N E, makes me remember of Raw Nutritionist Sergei Butenko, who taught me his super-easy & super-healthy GREEN-PROTEIN S M O O T H I E at his visit to Western Australia, some twenty years ago. I have found that it becomes even more nourishing by adding a handful of MULBERRY LEAVES & VINE LEAVES to his classic combination of CELERY LEAVES, A CUP OF WATER, AND A BANANA …( Just roll leaves up and cut into smaller pieces with a pair of SCISSORS, fill up with cup of water, and blend together for just half a minute or so, and then just add the banana to mix in, takes only a few seconds…! )

Wonderfully frothy & sweet protein power drink !
