"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked. "Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice. "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

Ummm....yum?

One of the suggestions that my doctor gave me when we discovered I have osteoporosis is to eat sardines. Apparently, they are the single most calcium-laden food out there. So I decided last time that I was at the store that I would pick up a can. Now, when I was a little girl, my dad regularly snacked on sardines and saltines and I developed a bit of a taste for them. So, I figured, "Why not?"

Sadly, my house is currently saltine-free. Still, I opened the can and grabbed a fork. After I finished the first little fishy, I added some salt to the sardines and they weren't terrible. Still, I doubt they will be a regular solution to the calcium thing. Especially since I am completely positive I will be unable to get my husband to kiss me for several hours, if not days.

I like sardines with mustard. Maybe that would be a pleasant taste for you too!

Jim also likes the mackeroo fillets in tomato soo, and mackeroo fillets in curry soo. Though we don't know if mackeroo has as much calcioom as sardoo.

I did not know that about sardines. That said, I don't know if I could stomach that solution. There's got to be a great natural alternative calcium source out there. You know... something a bit less stinky.

I like sardines on rye crisps smashed out and sprinkled with some sea salt. Or, on a salad in a pinch. Maybe I'll go have some now! (Try the Bela olhao brand if you can get them in Canadia, they are meatier.)
