I physically see my neurologist tomorrow, but she wrote back to me in my email that I sent to her. She said that it’s she has heard of some of her MS patients getting swelling in the calves, ankles and feet area for some unknown reason. Her only concern is why it came on so suddenly with me and now seems to be an issue. My guess is it was coming on a little slowly but then got really bad…
Amazingly, I actually hate vegetables. I had to get very creative when I was vegan to eat my vegetables. So I got creative. This recipe however I was making for a long time. This is how I got creative getting my daughter to eat vegetables. This is cauliflower mashed potatoes. Very very simple recipe and it taste really good. 1 head cauliflower broken into pieces and boiled until soft 1 onion peeled and boiled with cauliflower 1/4-1/2 cup milk or…
I make this recipe every Thanksgiving. It’s a very simple recipe and very easy to make me again. Yesterday I made the non-vegan way but there’s certain things in the recipe I do change. I’m going to put the actual recipe up and then write what I change. I’ve been making this recipe easily for 20 years. 2lbs carrots boiled in water until soft. I like to use baby carrots. You can actually put in as much as you want…

Beautiful sunny day and I wake up with a headache. You know when you just haven’t felt right? That’s how I’ve been lately. I know, I know I have multiple sclerosis. Yes, that’s very true and the chances of it being just something with my multiple sclerosis is extremely high. However I just haven’t felt right. I’m not really sure what’s up. My doctor called with my blood work and again, everything is fine. I definitely don’t have Cushing’s, diabetes…
I needed to try new recipes this week now that I joined weight watchers again. It is difficult to be vegan on weight watchers and staying fully vegan might come to an end, but that’s for another blog post. I do want to add I lost 2.6 pounds this week so I’m moving in the right direction. I feel better too. I needed to get back under control. I made this recipe this week putting it over some brown rice….
This is definitely been a new one for me. I probably have been on and off weight watchers since I’ve been about 10. There’s nothing I really don’t know about dieting, especially the weight watchers plans. However this one actually requires a lot of thought. The current plan, called smart points, is a protein-based plan. Meaning, lean meats are the lowest points. Carbohydrates, even the whole-grain complex ones, a much higher points. The vegan diet, obviously, does not eat any meats….

I made this recipe and I have to be honest,I hated the taste with the sun dried tomatoes. However I learned a very handy tip when cooking. If food taste too acidic a sprinkle of baking powder can regulate the taste of any sauce or soup so you can save it. I made this a second time without the sun dried tomatoes and it was excellent. Have a wonderful fall Sunday. Harvest Moon Squash Soup Ingredients 1 medium butternut squash…
