Einstein Was Right. Knowledge Is Limited. Imagination Is Everything. Take Ceylon Cinnamon. First It Was

Einstein was right. Knowledge is limited. Imagination is everything. Take Ceylon Cinnamon. First it was used a preservative because in ancient times we didn’t have refrigerators. Adding Ceylon Cinnamon allowed people to keep food from spoiling for longer. Then people discovered mixing it with citrus like orange, lemon and lime added a wonderful taste combination. More imagination and experimentation led to the discovery it works very well with spices like ginger, cumin, coriander, anise #cloves #cardamom, turmeric and nutmeg. Creating recipes with deep multi layered flavors. In Mexico they started combining it with chocolate and started making Cinnamon stick tea. And more imagination lead to the discovery it has powerful health properties. People in cold climates discovered it keeps you warm in winter. Others discovered the scent of Ceylon cinnamon Bark Oil improves the mood and reduces irritability. More imagination led to the discovery that Ceylon Cinnamon is a wonderful sugar substitute, negating the need to use so much sugar. What can your imagination discover about Ceylon Cinnamon?

For Years I Used To Make Vegetables Wrong. Overboiling, Frying The Hell Out Of It And Even Steaming It

For years I used to make vegetables wrong. Overboiling, frying the hell out of it and even steaming it all wrong. But having lived in Hong Kong for a period of years I got an appreciation of the benefits of making vegetables perfectly so it tastes beautiful while losing very little of the nutrients. Take this Gai Lan also known as Chinese broccoli, which funnily enough originated in Europe. All you need is to immerse this in boiling hot water for three minutes are you are done. It comes out tasty, crunchy and with a bit Sesame oil it is fantastic. And it has plenty of fiber to feed your good gut bacteria. Did you know that good bacteria feeds on fiber while bad bacteria feeds on sugar?

I Used To Live In Hong Kong For Many Years And Left For America The Land Of Opportunity. But Not Good

I used to live in Hong Kong for many years and left for America the land of opportunity. But not good health. Hong Kong to my surprise has the best longevity in the World. This is despite heavy pollution, limited organic food, really cramped living conditions and low health care spending. Why do they live so long? Part of the answer may lie in the fact they eat a lot of fresh food. Unlike in the US where people shop once a week and either freeze or refrigerate their food, people in Hong Kong have really tiny kitchens. There is no space. So, they eat out. Virtually every day. There are plenty of inexpensive restaurants serving fresh food. Because of the massive scale, prices are cheap and food waste is  also reduced by cooking for many. And they eat plenty of fish. Glorious varieties of fish, often steamed. Vegetables too, made in the most amazing ways. For such a busy place there are plenty of outdoor spaces. You should see how many retired people get up early in the morning, gather in large groups and practice tai chi. It is truly a sight to behold. Afterwards they go to a restaurant with fellow retirees which may be building a sense of wellbeing. This is often done on a daily basis. The younger people are too busy to do this but they too meet in large groups at lunch time. Again, fresh food. In the evening they meet friends or work mates for dinner. It could be a simple place like a Dai Pa Dong (a no-frills restaurant) or a more expensive place for special occasions or somewhere in between. This social fabric and a huge variety of food may explain their longevity. I am so glad Hong Kong exposed me to the art of eating better and the social gathering. I have got to eat more fresh fish despite concerns about mercury. My fish skills are not great but I started with this expensive Halibut. It was out of this World. Next how to master Hong Kong style steamed fish. Got to live long and healthy.

Tea Is Much More Dangerous Than Beer. I Drank 14 Beers Until 2:00 A.m. At The Local Pub While My Wife

Tea is much more dangerous than beer. I drank 14 beers until 2:00 a.m. at the local pub while my wife stayed home drinking tea.

You should have seen how violent and angry she was when I got home.

I was peaceful, silent and headed to bed. She shouted at me all night and well into the morning.

Please ladies the choice of tea is very important. Try some Ceylon Cinnamon Ginger tea to get a good nights sleep and reduce

any irritation you might

feel towards me.

Or join me at the pub

for a beer. Ginger beer.
