Juan Day at a Time: RAHHHHHHHRRRRR!
http://juandayatatime.blogspot.com/2015/02/rahhhhhhhrrrrr.html
Tuesday, February 17, 2015. G'Day, Readers,. BEST BIG DOG NAME EVER. :). Here, for those not familiar with the breed, is a pretty good pic of how I remember Rahhhrrr:. His impressive nose was as big as a golf ball and he had such a darling spirit that just beamed out of every tuft of fur on his massive body. I realize now, I never even petted the Raaahhhrrr-issimo. It's so great how some dogs, like people, can make SUCH deep and lasting first impressions. Now that ole Tony is officially starting to show ...

I started the experiment this morning in my mueslix which, for the first time in months, had fruit other than frozen squishy cherries in it, (apple 'n cinnamon). The study below, ( taken from here. Used 90mL/day doses of concentrate, but according to the last sentence, that might be a bit of a waste. The first dose was 30ml of c...

http://juandayatatime.blogspot.com/2015/04/teriyaki-bulgar-tofu.html
Monday, April 20, 2015. Teriyaki Tofu and Bulgur. G'Day, Readers,. Sharing today, a nice and easy lunch/supper idea, good for both vegans and non. I know that most people do not get excited about tofu, but its lean protein power cannot be ignored, nor it's practicality and as with so many things, "it's all about the sauce". Here's a sunny shot of it before it went down well with a tiiiiiny glass of Belgian beer blanche for moi:. Teriyaki Tofu and Bulgur. 200 grams of soft organic tofu, cubed. MPA, CKD an...

http://juandayatatime.blogspot.com/2015/04/multiple-woots.html
Friday, April 3, 2015. Hello again, :). I'm glad I always carry tissues. I couldn't help but get to leaking upon reading this last batch of regularly scheduled blood test results this morning, just outside the lab, avec-Lab. These ones were for the usual kidney, CBC, 'lytes, etc. and all ( except for the beans) , are NORMAL. Some barely so, but still, normal . WOOOT! I do believe that is the highest it has ever been. BEAN! And here's what poked me in the tear-ducts:. Nuff medi-jargon, already. I am most ...

Here's a pic of the cholesterol goodness:. Even though it's in French, the gist for fellow blood test readers is pretty darned swell. Inf a", = French for "less than".).

Juan Day at a Time: A Timely Medi-Intervention
http://juandayatatime.blogspot.com/2015/08/a-timely-medi-intervention.html
Thursday, August 6, 2015. Hi, Readers,. This blog post goes out to the animal-friends out there after an emergency vet-visit the day after the previous post was made. It was due mostly to that too-dark urine of Tony's lately that just wasn't getting any better. Our dear beasty has been on canine-thyroxine now for a week and already I'm seeing more of a spring in his step. In a month we'll do another dip stick to see if the dosage is optimal. Ironic high-fives to my own medical conditions as if it weren't...

Juan Day at a Time: Cherry-Acid Developments
http://juandayatatime.blogspot.com/2015/05/cherry-acid-developments.html
Wednesday, May 20, 2015. Bonjour, Readers,. For those keeping tabs on this, the latest blood tests show a decrease in serum uric acid by a 5mg/L. While I'll take any reduction, this still means the my levels are a good 15% higher than the max of the norms. So as I typed I would, I have already increased my daily cherry intake (now to 30/day), and hopefully the next blood test in early June will show even lower levels. I'll still be digging any decrease. That's it for today,. What the hell happened:.

Wednesday, March 18, 2015. J's Blueberry Almond Oat Squares/Cookies. Hello Readers and Bakers,. Soooo, after a few damned hard days of multiple, monstrous migraines that lead up to a 10 hour stint in the ER this week, I was in dire need of some comfort food.

Juan Day at a Time: The Electric Cherry Acid Test
http://juandayatatime.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-electric-cherry-acid-test.html
Thursday, May 7, 2015. The Electric Cherry Acid Test. Well, today is the day. The day I had my (amongst many other things), serum uric acid levels checked, which I'm hoping hard will reveal lower than before levels- which have been too high for too long, IMNSHO. I thankfully do not have any gout symptoms but am more than keen to lower the uric acid due to its connection to future adverse cardiac events. All the more reason to do all I can to stay the hell out of that demographic. I will have my results i...
