Aging Boomer's Blog
To contact us Click HERE
Hey, a short entry today to plug my relatively new website where I'm blogging on a regular basis about getting older and all the trappings that come with it.
I named the site cleverly...
AgingBoomersBlog.com
Okay, so that's not so clever. But it was an available domain name that more-or-less reflected what it was going to be about.
Anyway, if you're an aging boomer, surf on over and bookmark my new site. Then spend some time there reading the many posts already up and then spending some more time commenting and moving the discussions forward.
I promise my AgingBoomersBlog.com will never be dull or boring or politically correct!

Garlic Coleslaw
To contact us Click HERE
I have this strange -- some would say -- habit of collecting coleslaw recipes, especially healthy ones that are a bit out of the ordinary in terms of palate pleasing.
Well, today, I'd like to share a healthy coleslaw recipe for all you garlic lovers out there.
It's called...
Fred T's Garlic Coleslaw
1 small head cabbage
2 cloves fresh garlic
1/2 cup plain yogurt or sour cream
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
Fresh ground black pepper to taste
Shred cabbage, press garlic (quantity to taste), add other ingredients in stainless or ceramic bowl. Toss until well mixed. All quantities are variable, so it's best to start with small amounts and add to taste. This slaw tastes better on the second day if it's stored cold and well sealed.
Thanks to Fred for sharing this recipe with me so many years ago.

Today I'm going to share a recipe for some healthy cookies made with quinoa, a little-known grain that's healthier than wheat... by a long shot.
Coconut Raisin Quinoa Cookies
2 cups quinoa flakes (like oatmeal), found in health food stores
1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup raisins
4 Tbs unsalted butter, softened
2 eggs

Fire Meditation
To contact us Click HERE
Today I'd like to share one of my favorite fire meditations with you.
If you've not yet taken up the practice of meditation, I urge you to do so because it has so many documented health benefits, with new benefits being discovered on a regular basis.
Without further preamble, for a great fire meditation, we turn to the late Zen master Shunryu Suzuki, who tells us...
To start, breathe deeply, pause for a second, and start centering your focus.
Repeat breathing and focusing three times or until you're deeply aware and intensely in the present moment.
When you're focused and centered in the moment, burn yourself and your ego and your petty concerns about this and that which are distracting you from the real you.
Breathe and let it all float up and away... like shimmering heat above the point of a flame.
Now, breathe again and feel the cool, calm peace that comes from burning yourself up completely, like a good bonfire.
Ah!
In closing, if you enjoyed this meditation, check out my weekly meditation newsletter at http://meditation101.com

Finding The Right Cafe BBQ Joint And Eatery

This includes everything from site selection, to restaurant layout and design, to vendor lists. The work does not end once the restaurant is opened and a quality control plan ensures that the endeavor will be successful. There is much to learn within the food service industry and even more knowledge is required when you are the boss. A franchise BBQ restaurant program provides the necessary education in a neat little package. Kings Mountain State Park, near Blacksburg, South Carolina, is a favorite destination with visitors to the Upcountry. The park is located near the border with North Carolina and is adjacent to Kings Mountain National Military Park, site of an important Revolutionary War battle. Built by the Civilian Conservation Corp (CCC) in the 1930s, Kings Mountain State Park encompasses 6,885 acres. Many of the park's original facilities are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Functions and Key Features. Barbecue smokers come in different styles and key features. Some may have an impeccable stainless steel exterior, cooking grills, an embedded thermometer, pans and so on and so forth. To save money, check if the features and functions included in your chosen equipment would benefit your cooking styles and requirements. In the perfect world you would complete all the ideas that I have mentioned in about month and for under a budget of 10,000. Is this a realistic DIY renovation goal Yes I believe it is very achievable, especially if you (or someone you know) have a few 'handy man' skills. Remember that renovating you investment property should be fun and exciting. With most weddings these days, the wedding catering follows a set formula of canapeacutes with the reception drinks before a three-course sit-down meal, followed later that evening with a hot buffet.
It will take a little planning, but with a simple buffet menu it is easily achieved. Think differently about your food - There are plenty of food options available, so you don't have to go down the route of a traditional sit-down meal. Consider providing party foods, snacks or plenty of canapeacutes for a champagne reception. A dessert only reception would work well for a bride with a sweet-tooth or perhaps a picnic style buffet for a more casual affair. Few realize that one of the key factors in determining quality is to get the grill temperature as hot as possible. When you go to a restaurant and order a steak, did you realize that they are able to cook them at over 1000 degrees Typical charcoal grills rarely get over 700 degrees because most are simply too large. If you don't believe me, then just take a look at the ratings in Consumer Reports. Notice anything different about the Weber grill (and no, I am not selling them) The difference is they are small dome shaped grills.
No private boats are allowed, but non-motorized fishing boats may be rented for 20 per day at the 65 acre Lake York. Two group camps, Camp Cherokee and Camp York, may be rented for large groups. The popular Camp Cherokee YMCA Camp is also located within the boundary of the state park. The park is open daily from 8am-6pm, with extended hours of 7am-9pm during daylight savings time. This is a replica of a yeoman farm typical of those found in the South Carolina Piedmont in the early to mid 1800s. The farm buildings include the farmhouse, barn, smokehouse, and blacksmith shop. A farm of this type would have grown cotton as a cash crop, and there is a cotton gin onsite. For more adventurous hikers, there is a moderately difficult 16 mile loop trail that crosses over into the National Military Park.
For the same price you can eat at the Rio's, which offers a much wider range of dishes (probably the widest), though their quality, which used to be very good, has faded somewhat lately. Which dishes you can find here. This particular all-you-can-eat is average though decent, offering a respectable (but not huge) range of dishes of average flavor. Salad sometimes (if you are lucky) they offer some gourmet salad dishes (such as the expensive and healthy artichokes and or sun-dried tomatoes) usually, it's run-of-the-mill with average salad condiments. At times they offer olive oil, other times it's really average condiments only. If your property is a weather board then a few coats of paint is a great idea or if it's a Brick house then rendering your property can make a massive difference. Render can turn an old and ugly brick house into a modern a beautiful place in a few days. RENOVATION TIP DIY rendering is an incredibly cheap way to improve the value of your house. So my answer to the question "how much work should I do on my investment property" Do as much as you can whilst spending as little as possible.
Fruits like red apples are other creative and fun alternatives for decorating tables, but nothing sets the mood like a lit candle inside a glass container surrounded by rose petals. You don't need to have tablecloths to make it look fancy, plastic covers look very nice as well and are more affordable. Now moving on to tuxedos, there are several online stores that offer tuxedos for a couple hundred dollars or you can just rent one from a nearby tuxedo rental place. There are many ways to have a delicious dinner reception and stay within budget. In fact, it is more their size that leads to them winning the best tasting foods for a barbecue grill all the time. I cannot stress this enough most people, especially Americans, purchase grills that are way, way too large. The inside is what matters are the grates made of stainless steel If not, they will soon warp and rust. And beyond this, the number one thing to fail on a charcoal grill is the grill grate that supports usually poorly crafted thin pieces of metals screwed on from the outside.

Cooking is an art that many people enjoy. Many people aspire to be the next Emeril Lagasse or Julia Child in their kitchens, but lack the skills and knowledge. The following article will provide you with a myriad of cooking tips and tricks that will get you on the road to being as good as any top chef.
Make sure not to use oil in the water you are using to make pasta. This will only keep sauce from sticking to pasta when mixed together. In order to give the water a little flavor and prevent the pasta from sticking the pot, you can add in a little bit of salt.
After cooking meat of any kind, it is very important that you let it sit a while before cutting. If you cut too soon, the juices will spill out onto the cutting board, leaving the meat dry and with less flavor. Letting the meat sit allows time for the juices to retract back into the meat.
Before frying raw potatoes, let them sit in cold water for at least a half an hour. By doing this, the fries will be more crispy. Also, letting them sit in cold water will cut down on the time it takes for them to cook thoroughly.
It is important to test the heat of oil before using it to pan fry your food. Pouring the oil into the pan and then sprinkling it with water should give you a series of cracks or sparkles. If it does not, then the pan isn't currently up to frying or heating capacity and dumping the food in it will act closer to an oil sponge than a frying pan.
Use either a steaming or a stir-frying technique to cook your vegetables. These two methods help the vegetables retain both their color and their nutrients, providing your family with a healthier side dish that also looks attractive. Your children, in particular, are more likely to eat their vegetables if they look nice.
Avoid lumpy gravy! Don't make the mistake of getting ready to serve the gravy, only to discover it's full of lumps. Simply pour the gravy through a fine strainer and reheat if necessary. To avoid lumps in the first place, slow down the cooking process - you are probably adding the liquid too quickly and the heat may be too high. Always remember to whisk the gravy constantly while it is cooking.
Whenever possible, avoid canned ingredients in your cooking. They have numerous disadvantages. Canned food has lost vital nutrients that you want in order to cook the healthiest possible meals. They also taste different - if not downright worse - than fresh ingredients, potentially ruining your recipes. Finally, canned foods have unhealthy additives - especially extra sodium - that you do not need in your food.
Save time by cooking large quantities, and freezing the extra. When you are planning an elaborate or time consuming meal, prepare extra servings. Making more won't increase your cooking time much, and these extra meals can be frozen, providing a fast and healthy alternative to the typical frozen TV dinner.
Always read a new recipe thoroughly before you begin cooking, preheating, or prepping. This prevents the hassles of running into surprise ingredients, equipment, or techniques and gives you a chance to hunt down substitutions--or a new recipe--if needed. Ideally, read the recipe before you do your shopping to ensure that you grab everything you need.
When sauteing ingredients in a fry pan ensure that you don't overcrowd the pan with too much food. Trying to cook too much at once will only lower the temperature of the pan and lead to steaming instead of browning. It is wiser to saute the ingredients in two separate batches, if necessary, and this will maintain the quality of cooking.
Substitute Greek yogurt for mayonnaise in creamy salad dressings. If you are on a diet or just trying to eat healthy, you can still make creamy salad dressings with healthy ingredients. Just substitute the mayonnaise in them with a low-fat Greek-style yogurt. This will make the dressing much healthier.
In conclusion, many people enjoy the fine art of cooking. They work in their kitchens with food, in the hopes of emulating successful chefs from around the world, but often lack the skills and knowledge to do so. If you use the tips from this article, you can become a master chef at home.

Placed in a fruit tray or basket along with other fruits, the auspicious-looking avocado pales in the presence of other brightly-colored and sweet-tasting fruits. More likely, it will not be eaten unless there is no more competition. Injustice is done to this underrated fruit-vegetable more often than necessary because the avocado nutrition is not well emphasized, not even in schools. As early as preschool, a student knows that "A" is for "Apple" and "O" is for "Orange". This probably explains why the particular penchant for apple among kids, can you say the same for avocado?
When claims are made with regards the avocado being one of the most favorite tropical fruit, it comes with the knowledge of avocado nutrition and its versatility as a fruit and vegetable. The knowledge about avocado nutrition as well as its versatility as an ingredient to many recipes could be the reason why people look at avocado in a new light.
What is avocado packed with to merit a special place in the table and in the tummy?
About 75% of the fats from avocado calories are high density lipids (HDL) or good cholesterol ranking second only to olives. Truly, avocado provides a delectable way of countering cholesterol or Low Density Lipids (LDL). Contrary to common myth, it is also good for reducing body weight as the monounsaturated fat improves basal metabolic rate; plus, the high density flesh due to carbohydrate and fiber content keeps the stomach full, thus, minimizing overeating. Inspite of the carbohydrates, avocados remain to have a very low glycemic index that makes it ideal for diabetic patients.
If truth be told about avocado nutrition, it is an almost complete meal with about fourteen vital nutrients. Noteworthy are the electrolytes, the potassium and sodium, that are about three times over that of banana, which are important in muscle and nerve functions too. Equally important are the several Vitamin B complex especially B3 or folic acid for ideal fetal development among pregnant women, anti-oxidants like Vitamins C and E, iron and copper for blood, and calcium for normal bone development.
Maybe, just maybe, if kids will be taught "A" is for Avocado then seeing avocado on the table will bring delight to kids and older people alike.

How to Sleep Better
To contact us Click HERE
If you're having trouble sleeping, I have a tip for you: start using your feet.
Say what?
Look, anyone who knows squat about natural health knows daily exercise is a sensible thing to do.
Well, medical science recently confirmed what us health nuts have known forever: older and middle-age people reported sleeping better when they added regular exercise to their days.
These aging baby boomers fell asleep about 15 minutes earlier and slept about 45 minutes longer at night.
Since most of us live frenetic lives and are seriously sleep-deprived anyway, doesn't it make sense to use our feet and legs for something other than appendages to move us from car to desk to car to home?
Of course it does.
So make a commitment today to exercise at least four times during the next seven days.
Begin today by brisk walking, swimming, or biking for at least 20 minutes.
This approach beats the tar out of the drug approach.
Sadly, though they compose only about 20% of the population, older Americans receive almost half the medications prescribed by doctors to aid sleep.
And these sorry drugs cause confusion, falls, extended drowsiness, and a host of other nasty side effects.
Here are some other exercising tips:

Here are some other exercising tips:
- A drop in body temperature aids sound sleep. So time your exercise five to six hours before bedtime.
- Make your exercise vigorous enough to make you sweat a little. Previous studies have shown that non-aerobic stretching and concentration exercises alone did not impart sleep.
- Stick with it! Participants in this study did not report improved sleep until they had been exercising for 16 weeks.

Chet, for a whopper of a headache I get relief by heating a wet wash cloth in the microwave until hot, then placing it on top of my head, lying down, and relaxing.Well, the next time your skull feels like it's going to explode, try the above headache relief tip.
The moist heat must increase the blood circulation to the head -- maybe that's why this works so well?

Snack to Lose Weight
To contact us Click HERE
This weight loss tip may come as a big surprise, but if you want to shed some pounds, you need to...
Snack between meals!
Whoa, what a great idea, eh?
You see, the human body wasn't designed to eat three meals a day, scheduled at the same time each day, the way most of us do.
Indeed, our bodies are always working, churning away and burning energy whether awake or asleep.
So instead of consuming your daily quotient of calories in three meals, spread 'em out over four or five or six mini-meals.
Remember, though, success only comes if you eat smaller meals.
You do NOT want to eat six full-sized meals every day!
By approaching your eating this way, you'll boost your metabolism, not get as hungry, and lose weight at the same time.
Try this simple tip and see if it doesn't work just the way I said it would. :)
