    So did Donald Trump, I believe.

    Missus makes a fruit/vegetable "soup" for breakfast - Kale, Spinach, fresh fruit, Yogurt, etc. I throw some chopped strawberries, nuts, muesli, ginger in as well.
    Lately she has been putting some Turmeric in as well. I can't say it improves the flavor.

    Putting lipstick on a pig is usually a thankless task, but well done for trying.

    I did when I got married and had kids. I wasn't interested anymore and I couldn't afford it anyhow.
    It's still good for amusement even if you don't participate.
    Couldn't agree more. I was being facetious.

    Didn't you hear, Leroy?

    It's achingly fashionable these days to be seen sitting at some next-big-thing hybrid cafe/O.C.D. health food joint with a Hitler Youth haircut, tattooed-covered arms, a handlebar moustache, and hip crossbar sunglasses (more "things that don't really go together"), while sipping the big Turmeric Daddy!

    Which is precisely why I refuse to be fashionable.

    Or just eat a curry or some food with turmeric in it. I'm all for experimenting and trying new stuff, but the constant crossing over of things that don't really go together just gets tiresome.

    Chuffed to hear it!

    It's a pleasure being amongst folk possessing such a staggering fount of knowledge. I know a lot more than I did about a month ago, however I've barely scratched the surface.

    Believe it or not, I sometimes keep extracts of frankincense and myrrh at home. I find them comforting (although not quite as comforting as the sexy aroma of freshly roasted espresso).

    What on earth is a 'balanced' diet? To me that's an incredibly subjective term
    I'll make it as objective for you as I can:

    *A balanced diet is one that doesn't make you blow out (http://static.boredpanda.com/blog/wp...op-32__700.jpg), or develop disgusting anti-beach love handles.*

    Simple, really...
