Freepersup, what a touching story. Thank you for sharing it.
You’re very welcome.
As usual- you’ve served up a great looking breakfast. ;0)
I went on a cleansing diet once upon a time. It had 3 ingredients.
Fresh squeezed juice of lemons.
Raw maple syrup.
Cayenne pepper.
If you wanted to lose weight, which wasn’t the chief purpose of the diet, you decreased the amount of maple syrup in the portions.
If you wanted to gain weight, which wasn’t the chief purpose of the diet either, you increased the amount of syrup in the portions.
The maple syrup that was recommended for the diet was the good stuff that comes in small glass jars/bottles or metal tins, not the commercial stuff that the average person buys to put on pancakes. The foremost reason for selecting the raw syrups, is that these finer grades are loaded with far more nutrients than are the commercially produced pancake syrups.
I was oblivious to the finer (A & B) grades of syrup for most of my life. It is a world’s difference in taste, when compared to the pancake syrups. Once discovered, I especially enjoyed putting it on vanilla ice cream. Taking a swig of it straight from the bottle is pure heaven, and makes you feel like a kid again, and- guilty of something you just know your mother would smack you for doing! mmm mmm good
