The weather has been cloudy and the Oracle (weatherperson) says it is going to rain later, but that the temperature will continue to warm. This is good news as it means I can start taking up adventures outside of the Inn (apartment building). I wonder if there will be any sprites along the trail by the Jordan Creek that runs through the meadow (park). Adventures to be had.

Today I had an adventure with a slime that had wandered its way into the kitchen. Where do these things come from? Anyways, I dispatched it with my mace, then dispatched the mess in the kitchen. The Inn Keeper suggested, admittedly a bit cheekily, that while I had the broom and mop out I might as well do the floor in the latrine as well. I suppose tomorrow I will clean the latrine proper, even though it will have to be done again the next day all over as the General Inspector (Apartment Manager) will be coming by for an inspection of all the quarters that are due for such turmoil and stress. It did exercise the muscles in my back quite thoroughly. Later, carpets as the dust bunnies must be conquered!

Cooking for this way of eating has continued to prove itself enjoyable. It is reminding me of time spent with my grandmother has a wee one as she, as am I, is from the Southern lands and cooking with butter and the like is comforting. Of course, I have to cut out the flour part, but still nice. Needing to remember all of the old tricks to get things to come out just right. I did not find myself brave enough this morning to try the coconut oil in the coffee, I may try to wrestle with my courage tomorrow morning for that treat. The food is delicious and filling. I am enjoying this, which is different than where I have been the last 14 months of calorie counting. The beast of ghrelin is starting to be tamed.

Today I am finding more energy than usual. I am not certain if this is from the dietary changes or the electric-shock treatments, or perhaps both. It feels nice to have the darkness lift from my heart. If it is from the dietary changes as well as the treatments (as there had been some improvement) then I shall continue on with this adventure until something changes its course.

Greetings - the trick with the Bulletproof coffee is to put the coconut oil and grasssfed butter in the cup, then add the hot coffee to melt everything, then add your milk or whatever you might want AND then blend it in a blender or use a immersion blender or something - it is the blending that makes it frothy and like a shake.

Ah, okay. I don't have that option. I go to a friend's place for coffee, and while she is fairly understanding on most things I think she'd find it a bit weird if I was hauling up a blender with me to make coffee. Thank you though!

Yes - I have one of those cool little handheld blenders. You might be able to just melt some coconut oil in hot coffee without too much trouble. Adds healthy fats and is supposed to help with the fat burning! Have a pleasant evening.
