There is a well known American soup company and they have promoted their products for many years by saying “Soup is good food.”  I agree.  My favorite soup must have a dark green leafy vegetable, a clear and tasty broth, chicken or sausage chunks, and some kind of beans – red beans, black beans, etc. or black eye peas.  Also, I like most of all of…[Read more]

thanks for your advice.

I am using Colgate in the morning, before sleeping I use paradontax or sensodyn for sensitive gums

Hence, chocolates have to wait

WE grow cocoa here… used to have our own company…Highgate… it closed. It might open again.  Cocoa from the Caribbean and South America is not Slave grown.

Ouch! I can’t eat my favorite chocolates now, having toothache!

Anyway, I am keeping the chocolates in the freezer, will have them after I extract my tooth!
