As I was reading my latest AARP magazine (I know.. this tells my age ... I found an interesting article, "A Well-Seasoned Mind". It described the benefits of turmeric. A study showed that people in India have one-fourth the U.S. rate of Alzheimer's. Interesting, I've been using it since September for arthritis... as recommended by my doctor who is East Indian. She highly recommended it also for the skin. I will confess that i drink almost four cups of coffee in the morning... if you include the half-cups I toss because I do not care for nuked coffee.. and I seem to lose my coffee cup in the the mornings. Anyhow... I sprinkle turmeric in my coffee and I mean liberally. I love it. It's a great spice.
Here is a recipe from the AARP article:
2 c. cubed raw chicken
2 tsp. curry (which has turmeric in it)
Saute in olive oil until cooked and then cool
Add raisins, diced apples, chopped almonds, chopped celery, and low-fat yogurt to taste.
How healthy can you get?

I didn't know that about tumeric. Interesting though. It sounds interesting in coffee, I can see where it would flavor it nicely! Great tip, thanks!

easy, tasty, inexpensive, fast. i like it!!!! now where did i lay my computer keyboard...? Oh, it's in front of me. *wink*
Your comments on my blog...just plain warm my heart! For some reason...who you are comes across so strong that it is almost like talking to you...
Turmeric is a spice I am sure I have but I am also sure it would need replacing as most of my spices do at this point. I would love to try this and see how it tastes. I do the same thing you do...throw my coffee out when it cools and fill up again. It's good to know I am not alone... :)
My yard. I plant perennials so they keep coming back on their own. I love that. What I planted last Spring is still there. Having son in law put in the curbing was great...makes everything so much easier.
Compared to some of the fantastic yards I have seen in blogs..mine is nothing..but thank you so much for the compliment! I love you for it!
love,
Mona
Thanks for the info on tumeric. Didn't know that. The recipe sounds out of this world. Gotta try it.
Well Karen...
Thanks for the heads up!
I'll have to give the Tumeric a try in my coffee.
I can't believe the size of that snake! Yikes...
I would have totally lost it!
