In 1919 when the flu killed 40 million people there was this Doctor that visited the many farmers to see if he could help them combat the flu. Many of the farmers and their family had contracted it and many died. The doctor came upon this one farmer and to his surprise, everyone was very healthy. When the doctor asked what the farmer was doing that was different the wife replied that she had placed an unpeeled onion in a dish in the rooms of the home, probably only two rooms back then). The doctor couldn’t believe it and asked if he could have one of the onions and place it under the microscope. She gave him one and when he did this, he did find the flu virus in the onion. It obviously absorbed the bacteria, therefore, keeping the family healthy.
I would never trade my amazing friends, my wonderful life, my loving family for less grey hair or a flatter belly. As I’ve aged, I’ve become kinder to myself, and less critical of myself. I’ve become my own friend. I don’t chide myself for eating that extra cookie, or for not making my bed, or for buying that silly cement gecko that I didn’t need, but looks so avant garde on my patio. I am entitled to a treat, to be messy, to be extravagant.
Science writer Susan Allport unravels why the disappearance of omega-3s from our diet may be responsible for the epidemics of obesity, heart disease, cancer. Oh, and wrinkles, too.
When Lisa Kepp was 2 years old, she was diagnosed with a neurological condition. She had not said a word in her short life--and it wasn't for want of trying. Lisa was so frustrated at not being able to form the words she clearly wanted to say that she flew into temper tantrums four or five times a day. The family was on pins and needles waiting for the next time the little girl would explode.
An article of November 16th in the Sunday Times magazine talked about the baby boomer generation becoming annoyed that they too have senior moments ( thought we could avoid that sort of thing). It mentioned these sites:

In their search for good staff, enlightened employers have come to recognise the value older people can add to their business - bringing with them a wealth of experience, know how and skills. It clearly makes good business sense for employers to recruit people with these attributes, because as well as getting conscientious and flexible workers, mature people are usually happy to pass on their knowledge and know-how or to act as mentors to younger members of staff.
This beef comes highly recommended from one of our members. ORGANIC DEXTER BEEF is succulent beef totally grass reared on organic pasture and haylage made on the farm. The beef is hung for at least two weeks in the traditional way which gives a deep colour to the meat, not bright red as in so many supermarkets.

Only buy or fill up your car in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold. Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground the more dense the fuel, when it gets warmer petrol expands, so buying in the afternoon or in the evening....your litre is not exactly a litre
My mother was very meticulous about what she wore when she reached 60. Indeed, she laid down a strict list of dos and don’ts – and if you’re wondering why you should listen to anything that my old mother said, she was, in the ‘sixties, a veritable fashion icon, Professor of Fashion at the Royal College of Art and responsible for nurturing designers like Ossie Clarke, Zandra Rhodes, Anthony Price… you name them, she influenced them.
