Year Four, Day 313: Pandemic Times Day 62, "Stay Home - Stay Safe" Day 49: Today I Hooped



Hello Friends!

Today I am tired. I will probably just do my pandemic video in the park again like I did yesterday. I have a new personal commitment - Two exercise sessions each day - One brisk walk in the morning with the dog (1/2 - 1 mile) and one Qi Gong/weighted hula hoop session or a longer walk in the afternoon.

Today I hooped.



I also made zucchini fritters. They were delicious! Especially with feta cheese and a bit of cheese. They were a bit time consuming . I had to shred the zucchini and then let them drain in a colander before adding egg, almond flour and seasonings.  I used the following recipe. I added parmesan cheese, and used almond flour and flax meal instead of a gluten free flour blend,  but otherwise adhered to the recipe: https://www.sugarfreemom.com/recipes/gluten-free-zucchini-fritters/

And now for covid-19 updates.  I saw an inspirational video by Matthew McConaughey urging us to unite against this enemy virus. I mentioned it on my pandemic video and promised to share the link with you. Here it is:

Thank you, Matthew!  "The cornovirus does not care who you voted for!"  Amen!

And now I am going to make my Magic, Miracle, Fasting Broth drink!

Happy Tuesday!  Be safe! Be healthy!  Be blessed!

Talk to you tomorrow!

Love,

Zita

Day 347: My Big Fat Greek Salad!!

I have perfected the art of making a Greek salad!  I have made two huge bowls in the last week. My kinds rave. Essentially the secret is f vegetables , good feta cheese, Greek olives and a homemade dressing made with light, extra virgin olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, red wine vinegar,  and oregano. Here is my recipe: MY BIG FAT GREEK SALAD Serves 4 hungry adults 4 cups greens (I used a "spring mix" from Fred Meyer) 2 cucumbers 6 roma tomatoes one small red onion 1 cup cubed feta cheese 1 cup Greek olives (pitted) Get out a big bowl. Peel a clove of garlic, cut in half and rub it over the interior of the bowl.  Wash the lettuce if it is not prewashed and packaged like mine was.  Dry the leaves, and tear into bite sized pieces. Throw into the big bowl. Note: Romaine lettuce is good to include in the mix, because it is hearty. Peel the cucumbers and dice. Add to bowl. Cut the roma tomatoes in half and squeeze out the seeds (otherwise they make th...

Year Two, Day 307: Chasing Away The Gloomy Weather...with Music and a Smile! :)

It seems to me that most of the city is depressed, tired and sick. I still have my low grade snuffly nose, along with sneezing, and itching eyes.  Low energy. It is nice to know I am not the only one. Misery loves company, don't you know! Even through the gloom, I had an enjoyable day.  I told myself several times that I really am a lucky woman. My kids are grown, I'm going to be a GRANDMA, and I love my work. My church job is a nice secure little job and it seems I am quite needed there.  I am still learning the ropes. But I am enjoying it. Meeting new people. And best of all, I have only a 1 1/2 minute commute (by foot!). I have a cozy little room in a household full of wonderful laid back people.  People who love animals and music. But best of all, my afternoons are filled with music. I basically get on the bus and travel about town, sitting at pianos, visiting with students, who are like my family. We talk. They play the piano for me. I offer pointe...

Year Three, Day 110: I Like Change, But How Do I Help the Suffering?

I woke up in a bit of a panic this morning. I had planned on getting to the track by 6:30 a.m., because I thought today was the first day of school. You see, the public is not allowed to use the track when school is in session. Understandably so. But alas, I overslept! I still headed out with my hoop, hoping it was before school hours at 7:30 a.m. And I breathed a sigh of relief. The school looked vacant. And only one solitary jogger with her solitary dog was present. I got busy in case the kids were due to arrive. Got a nice hoop workout in. No sign of children as I walked back to the house. So I did what I should have done in advance. I consulted Google. And most happy am I - North Clackamas School District does not start back to school until September 6th! Portland Public Schools start today. But the elementary school next door to the track lists "student hours" as 7:45 - 2:00 p.m. So I really am going to have to get an earlier start next week. I am aiming...
