Even if I think really hard and try to remember, I still can’t recall exactly when Clark first made these cookies. I’m pretty sure it was our senior year at Purdue, but I can’t remember which apartment we were living in at the time. If memory serves me, he actually made them while I was away one weekend and then baked them again when I came back.
I do remember him telling me that he “made – literally – the best chocolate chip cookies ever.” And I definitely remember agreeing 100%, nodding my head and muttering “mmmmmmmmmm omg” with a mouthful of cookie. Hot, chewy, wholesome, and loaded with melty chips.
It’s safe to say it was love at first bite with these chocolate chip cookies. I have no idea how many times we’ve made them since then. Now, when Clark makes them, he has them mixed up and going into the oven in less than 10 minutes.
Like any good recipe, it is simple enough to memorize and make it into a ritual after you’ve made it a few times. You know how your mom eventually stopped following her lasagna recipe because she knew it by heart? This is one of those recipes.
These are the cookies to have in your recipe arsenal. Whip them out for a party, take them to a sick friend, bake them just because it’s midnight and you have the munchies.
I know there are a million kinds of chocolate chip cookies out there, and everyone has their favorite. Some people like them crispy, some people like them chewy, some people only like their grandma’s recipe.
There’s just something special about an oaty chocolate chip cookie – they satisfy the craving and they manage to fill you up at the same time, without a bunch of unnecessary sugar. You’ll love these no matter what because they’re so simple and straightforward.
This post is brought to you in part by Colter Bay Village in Grand Teton National Park. This world-class campground is kind enough to provide 24-hour wifi access in their laundromat. Currently, we’ve got three devices charging while a load is in the dryer. We’re on day 6 of our road trip, so a laundry session was in order. I’ll include a couple of pictures of our road trip but if you want to see more of how awesome the wild West is, follow along on Instagram – I’m updating as frequently as wifi allows!
You’ll have to excuse my brevity today; there are other folks waiting to use the charging station. Like, really. There is a line. And I bet they’re all as anxious to Instagram, email, and share stories as I am!
A classic chocolate chip cookie made with wholesome ingredients. Chewy, melty, and with just a hint of crunch.
Preheat over to 350º and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients except chocolate chips.
Use your hands to thoroughly mix everything – using your hands helps to melt the coconut oil.
Scoop cookies onto baking sheet. Our favorite method is to use a rounded 2 tablespoon measure spoon – that’s what helps to create their perfect shape!
It’s alright if the cookies are close together – they hold their shape during baking and don’t spread out much.
Bake for 14-16 minutes, remove from oven, and allow to cool.

The 6 quart capacit y GoWise USA GW22620 is an up an coming pressure/multi cooker on the market today. This is the 4th generation model of this pressure cooker. That means that the GoWise company upgraded this machine 4 times.
There are other pressure cookers out there with more history and a proven track record. This machine has that 4th generation technology, it has improved functionality compared to prior generations. I researched this budget machine thoroughly. Below, read my findings on the Gowise USA GW22620, and how it stacks up to the competition.
The new GoWise pressure cooker is small weighing just 16 pounds. It is silver and black. The design won’t blow you away. It isn’t a particularly pretty appliance like this Breville juicer. It looks pretty basic. Looks and size aren’t everything though. This little baby packs a punch, it is rated at 1000-watts and a maximum pressure output of 13. That’s not bad, especially when considering that the maximum allowable psi for American pressure cookers is 15.
The GoWise USA GW22620 is a feature rich little thing. It is not just a pressure cooker. In fact, it would more accurately be described as a multi-cooker. It actually has 7 additional cooking functions, it is also a rice cooker, bean cooker, yogurt maker, food warmer, steamer, sauté, slow cooker, and egg maker. More and more it’s becoming more common place for small appliances to function as more than one type of machine.
This cooker is very easy to use. There are 16 pre-programmed “smart” programs. 12 of those programs have predefined cooking times which definitely adds to the ease of use. Some of those pre-programmed settings include; rice, porridge, and yogurt. You can see the full list here. This machine easily replaces a lot of single purpose machines. This can free up a lot of space for you.
There are many other pressure cookers on the market. Gowise is definitely a great option for those looking for a pressure cooker or multi-cooker. Below, we’ve taken a look at the competition and reported our findings below.
The two pressure cookers look identical at first glance. But the newer model has updated features. The older GoWise pressure cooker is a 6 in 1 multi-cooker where the new one is an 8 in 1 multi-cooker.
Of course, the predecessor is the more proven model, but you can’t overlook the updated features of the new GoWise pressure cooker.
The GoWise GW22620 8-in-1 pressure cooker is an amazing multi-cooker. You can make yogurt, rice, steam eggs, and do all kinds of other things in this machine. If it is anything like its predecessor, then it will prove to be a quality machine. If you are on the fence, or aren’t so sure you need the capacity, then you can check out the other model.

iJim: Alien Life On Earth. A Theory.
Alien Life On Earth. A Theory.
Not everything post apocalyptic has to be zombie orientated. What happens if we were to be invaded by aliens from another planet?
On that note, what would you think if I were to tell you that I believe that there is alien life on other planets?
Let me prefix this, not only do I believe that there is life on other planets but I also believe that there is a very big "possibility" that, that life could be on this planet and moving among us, freely on a daily basis.
Before you click away from my blog, I do have a theory about this.
See, things on this planet, my phone, my cup of coffee (the cup any way) are a solid. They are a solid because at a molecular level they vibrate at a very slow rate. As an example, lets take an ice-cube. An ice-cube is solid water, it is a solid because at a molecular level the water molecules are vibrating at a slow rate.
But, if we were to heat the ice-cube the molecules would start to vibrate at a faster and faster rate until they start to separate and become water again. Now, if we were to continue to heat the ice-cube the water would turn into steam as we all know, and then vapour at which point it becomes invisible to the human eye.
This is where my theory comes in.
What happens if there is an alien life form that at a molecular level, can vibrate at such a rate that it becomes invisible to the human eye?
Hows that for feeding Human Paranoia?

On our recent trip to the San Diego area, we stopped for lunch at Farmer and The Seahorse in Torrey Pines, a restaurant known very well to locals. Located in the heart of the Alexandria tech center which is a development of life sciences firms, it’s like being on the farm in a little nature oasis in the city. It is a hidden gem that is off the tourist attractions but a must visit for lunch.
As we arrived at the farm restaurant we noticed the number of cars parked on the expansive lot, we knew this was one popular restaurant. Walking towards the entrance are hints of what’s in store with a red tractor and farm silo. On this day at noon the outdoor patio was bustling and even indoors every table was full……a sure sign this place is very well known and popular.
This restaurant is off the beaten path, but don’t let that fool you. What drew us to Farmer and The Seahorse is the “farm to table“ menu which is what we always look for when selecting a restaurant. Being in California, farm fresh ingredients take on a whole new meaning and this lunch menu is no exception with Award-winning Celebrity Chef Brian Malarkey’s inventive dishes that are inspired by the bounty of the freshest local ingredients.
Appetizers here are an abundant selection of creatively prepared field greens with almost everything grown locally. Our salads were so fresh and lively the way they should be. The main entrees are offered in two categories: “Blue Plates” which are known as simple healthy options and “Breaded Wonders“ for those looking to treat themselves. We decided to choose from both and were pleasantly surprised with the gourmet presentations of each dish, not usual found for lunch plates. Preparing meals carefully like this when it’s so busy is quite an achievement but the chefs here pull it off with every plate tasting so good!
For dessert we tried both options and both were simple and sweet and with their premium coffee offerings it made for really nice way to enjoy the outdoor patio.
Farmer and The Seahorse is a very unique restaurant, it seems to be a place where friends can escape a busy workplace or a hectic day, relax and enjoy really good, healthy food all in the beautiful Torrey Pines surroundings. Everyone we seen here having lunch looked to be truly enjoying themselves ! Our experience here was very pleasant and relaxed and we loved every dish ….Too bad lunch couldn’t be like this every day.
This post is written in partnership with Farmer and The Seahorse, but as always, opinions are entirely my own. A huge thanks for a wonderful lunch.

Are you in search of trustable lending solutions?
Making a great deal of money is what most people want to do. The popularity of this truth is clearly proven by Property investment. Real estate investment is an excellent way to making profits. Not everybody has a great credit history. A majority of individuals with poor credit steer clear of property investment assuming that banks will not provide them due to their credit loans. Do not let this problem toward becoming rich, come. A fantastic solution for people searching for finance is personal lending. Private lending can be described as borrowing funds not financed by the government. These creditors can be individuals, businesses, and investors. Private lenders require a rate of interest due to the risks. They are not financed by the government. Individuals with a history that is poor can get loans through lending. The more the risk, the higher the rate of interest.
There are several lending companies that offer loans for the Purpose of property investment. Though these lending companies have their own policies, they will need to fulfil some criteria according to the law. Adhere to the instructions of the state they are registered and they need to register themselves. The process of lending is much more easily compared with conventional Lending, such as. In lending, the procedures are less formal. The lending criteria requirements are few. Through lending you will get customized solutions to satisfy your requirements. For those who would like to take loans for home lending is a fantastic alternative if your loan hasn’t been accepted by the Federal Housing Administration.
Lenders consider several parameters, such as duration of the loan, while assessing your application, credit history, and type of loan. They offer mortgage loans in addition to loans. You are free to select from fixed mortgage rates and adjustable mortgage rates. In conclusion, those who want to invest in property but are currently running short on money lending is a solution that is fantastic. Irrespective of your credit and lack of cash reserves, you get access to the funds that are necessary. Many businesses use lending to cultivate their business. A credit line, for example, can provide borrowers from its asset base with a whole lot of flexibility and borrowing capacity. Moreover, an asset-based lending solution can be made to grow with the business. As an example, a credit alternative could be designed as the company increases its borrowing base to offer a credit limit. So, as collateral and the provider’s needs grow, so does its capacity.

This is one of the most asked questions that I get!
When it comes to wedding planning there are so many things that you need to consider, it can easily become so overwhelming and costly. Lets face it most vendors that you speak to will always tell you that you need more than you think you do.
When it comes to advice when Im asked the above question I will always establish what is important to the couple, to make sure we are a good fit.
Do you want to see what your partner was doing on the day of your wedding, would you like to see what the prep looked like, how happy they looked and the funny things they did?
Whenever I deliver a gallery including prep photo’s (especially from the grooms prep) the couple will always say that it took them right back to that morning and that they had forgotten a lot of the little things about the preparation. Wedding days are so busy, they are emotional and there is so much happening that it’s nearly impossible to remember the little things.
My speciality is story telling, I start when you are getting ready and I stay with you until you start having drinks with all of your guests. The magic number for my clients is 8 hours and this results in around 800 final images. More if you have a lot going on!
The biggest mistake I could make is to try and please everyone, I’m happy to provide a beautiful timeline of your day and this takes 8 hours of coverage, if this is meaningful to you chances are we would be a fabulous fit for each other!

In Flagler Beach, proposals that make residents angry never die. They just fade away to return at a later date, again and again. And so for the third time in 19 months, a proposal to regulate roving food vendors re-emerging, this time with a distinct difference: the proposal is in the form of an ordinance that singles out mobile vendors—and bans them altogether from city limits except during special events.
It is the most far-reaching and strict proposal yet, exceeding what most Flagler Beach city commissioners had suggested to date, and likely to again stir up the sort of anger and opposition that previous but vaguer such proposals had drawn when discussed in April and February 2012. The city commission takes up the proposal at its Thursday meeting, which begins at 5:30 p.m. at Flagler Beach’s city hall. But the meeting agenda is stacked with more than two dozen items, with the mobile vendor item scheduled toward the end–when audience members have usually tired of the slog.
Flagler Beach doesn’t have a serious food vending “problem,” nor is it prone to much roving food-vending traffic. The proposals have been largely seen as targeting one vendor in particular: Sandy Kinney, a Bunnell resident who sells ice cream out of her truck, and has been doing so for several years in Bunnell, Palm Coast, unincorporated parts of Flagler County, and of course Flagler Beach.
But Kinney’s selling in Flagler Beach also angers existing ice cream businesses that have invested time and money on their brick-and-mortar locations, where they must abide by city regulations. To some of them, Kinney is afforded an unfair competitive advantage by being allowed to sell from her truck.
But by no means to all. Karen Barchowski, one of the three co-owners of Sally’s Ice Cream on North A1A, has championed Kinney’s operation all along. “I have supported her from day one,” Barchowski said, as have her two partners in the business.
City Commissioner Jane Mealy, who has led the charge against mobile vendors, has insisted that she’s never sought to ban ice cream trucks in particular, only to regulate mobile vending in general, which city ordinances leave entirely silent. The proposed ordinance ends that silence.
“This was what I was looking for to begin with,” Mealy said Wednesday. “I don’t see Flagler Beach as a town that has ice cream trucks or whatever kind of mobile vending just riding around, ringing bells, making all kinds of noise, and I think they’re very unsafe. Kids run out in the street without looking. I just don’t think they’re necessary.” Her strongest reason against mobile vending, Mealy added, is their unfairness to brick-and-mortar businesses, which pay rent, pay taxes and abide by regulations. “I think it’s more friendly to the brick and mortar businesses than to have those trucks around,” Mealy said.
When the issue was previously discussed, Commissioner Steve Settle echoed Mealy’s concerns about safety, and favored limiting the range of vendors within the city to specific areas. But Commissioners Marshall Shupe and Joy McGrew were more supportive of mobile vendors—at least they were so last year. “I’m in favor of vendors,” McGrew said categorically, though she was willing to hear about some form of compromise that would regulate them—not ban them. Shupe had no opposition to ice cream trucks, but he was opposed to what he considered to be shadier vendors who may be hawking watches or meats out of their trunks. Legally, however, allowing one type of vendor but nto another could raise issues for the city.
Before writing the proposed ordinance, Drew Smith, the city attorney, had conversations with commissioners individually to get a sense of what they’d be comfortable for, Mealy said. “This seemed to be what people were saying,” Mealy said.
The proposed ordinance leaves no room for doubt: “Mobile sales operations and mobile food service operations, collectively described as mobile operations under this chapter, shall be prohibited unless such mobile operations are conducted at a special event for which a special event permit has been issued by the city.” And mobile food vending at special events will itself be limited geographically to the area where the event is taking place. In other words an ice cream truck may not travel up and down State Road A1A on July 4.
Both times the issue was raised previously, Kinney, who is a single mother and works several jobs, mobilized public opposition to turn back the city’s regulatory push. Because of her single-mother status and the fact that the vending in question focuses on an ice cream truck, the issue has had some emotional appeal as much as it’s raised questions about how Flagler Beach wants to define its support for business.
Not much Good Humor at City Hall.
So sad….local businesses are in sad shape if they can’t compete with a moving vending vehicle which has limited supplies, choices etc. If someone is willing to work at making a business a go, and is succeeding, let them do it….the people obviously like it. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t buy from the vendor and it would put them out of business. The moving ice cream truck brings back so many childhood memories….what a bunch of lemon heads.
What a crying shame! The city commission has nothing better to do then target mobile vendor these days? Mobile food vendors thrive in cities all over the world. People are losing their jobs and taking what $ they have left and trying to create their own employment…stop taking that from them! Let these people have their businesses!
Without controversy in Flagler Beach, they would not be operating status quo. Is there a single month of a single year that they just can keep quiet out there? Does every single thing have to be a catastrophe for this city? Com’on really?
If the other ice cream shops want to keep with the times, lower their overhead, then purchase an ice cream truck. Why force this other lady to comply the otherway? Is it not a two way street?
Really, nothing better to do ?
Here we go again. Flagler Beach commissioners making ordinances without letting the residents of Flagler Beach V-O-T-E . Communism at its finest! Telling us WHAT THEY can do, WHEN THEY can do it and WHERE THEY can do it(THEY being the FB commissioners) and NO I didn’t vote for Settle or Mealy. Guess they never had “sweet sound” of the Ice Cream Truck in their neighborhood. As a child growing up in the big city of Jacksonville, we couldn’t wait for the musical sound of the Ice Cream Truck. It has truly been a blessing to see my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter’s face light up when she hears the “Sandalina Ice Cream Truck” coming down our street in Flagler Beach. Way to go Commissioners CRUSH another childs dream.
Yeah I am livid and pray this “better idea” goes AWAY permanently!
Typical Flagler Beach bulls–t. Next topic.
Between Palm Coast’s anti-business attitude,red light cameras and Flagler Beach’s unfriendly (pay to go on the pier) attitude toward visitors and residents alike I hope both dry up and blow away.
Is it fair to brick and mortar that people buy things off of them there computers? What will Mrs. Mealy do to save them? Glad her focus is on a ice cream truck that runs through the city a couple of days a week. Tue leadership is hard to find. A safety hazard? Driving up and stopping and some children a $2 ice cream, that’s a safety hazard? I bet in Mrs Mealy’s campaign she talked about a good city for the children. I’ve seen the children’s eyes light up when they see the ice cream truck but now Mrs Mealy must put a stop to this unbelievable act that is happening in our community. We must stop electing officials who are on the take or can’t use common sense. Mrs Mealy a difference maker and leader you are not.
One of my greatest joys as a child was hearing the ice cream truck off in a distance and waiting for it to come down my street. Riding around, ringing bells, making all kinds of noise, unsafe… Really? When is the last time that you had an ice cream truck’s bell/chime wake you up? Is there really that much speeding traffic in town to endanger children wanting an ice cream? ? Competition to existing businesses?… I don’t think so. Certainly not an ice cream truck. If you believe that vendors are really a problem, ban vendors from the business district but not miles away on the residential streets of the city. Whatever happened to free enterprise anyway? Mobile vendors have expenses too. Maybe not the same expenses as a stationary business, but vehicles, gasoline and vehicle maintenance are not cheap.
I truly don’t believe that mobile vendors are a nuisance in Flagler Beach but if you really think they need to be regulated, make them get a license to sell their wares within the city and ban them from the business district.
How can any parent with a conscience ban ice cream trucks from their neighborhood?
Ice Cream Trucks have been around for-ever, competing with storefronts. This is just simpletons who have been given phantom power to attempt to control people. Obviously, a bunch of dems trying to supress capitalism.
Cities around the country are supporting food trucks and an ice cream truck revival, but not Flagler Beach…oh no. What a trite and petty vendetta. Businesses shouldn’t run and cry to government if they’re getting their butts handed to them. It’s called the free market. Open your own trucks if you think it’s an unfair advantage.
If you start with one, you’re getting more. Specially with kids unsupervised on streets this is wrong business.
I think is a very bad idea to ban the ice cream truck vendor!. That is as American as apple pie!! My kids (now 42 and 48 years old) running to us on weekends and holidays with a loud request ” Ice Cream Maaaan (now Lady)” as soon as the sweet musical bells eco in our block! Such a sweet memories still bring to my senses when I hear our current frozen treats calling nowadays! For those that do not have the time or are near to Sally’s (I think is the name) ice cream store in A1A, is very convenient to buy the treats from the mobile vendors. Banning it is not a way to promote economic recovery by restricting sales over protectionism! We the store front businesses owners of any type have to deal with competition as well all around us with no one to protect us….why the bias here? Does the Flagler Commission believe that is the best for visitors on a crowded beach front holiday, to grab their kids, get of the beach, jump on their cars, loosing their parking spot, making life threatening U Turns against forever fast passing traffic, on narrow A1A and drive several miles to go buy ice cream from Sally’s store on A1A, other than from the conveniently traveling Ice Cream Lady by them? Would be same as restricting our local Boiled Peanuts peddlers up the road, were I buy mine often….in favor of the gas station convenience store that sale those few miles inside town. C’mon live and let live. Do not destroy one more vestige of Americana in Good Old Flagler Beach!
It’s kind of interesting that they claim they are concerned with the kids’s safety while buying ice cream off the truck. And there’s no safety issue trying to cross A1A on a Saturday to get from the pier/beach to the ice cream store? I think we know what the real issue is here.
I guess we are doing the Flagler Beach 3 step again 1 step forward and 2 steps back.How many times do we have to revisit “non-issues???
This is what small minded people do, they never see the big picture.
to stop me, and if I wanted to charge less than the others, still nothing to stop me, what would the criers do? go to the Commissioners and say I was taking business from them??? The “brick and Mortar”get all the tourists, the ice cream truck takes nothing fro them, they are catering to the locals. This is FREE Enterprise,We do not ask how much is your overhead, not our business.We do not live in a Socialist society,where we tell people that what they make will be regulated.
Please, look to bigger problems than an ICE CREAM TRUCK!!!
If someone wants to pay over $100,00 for an ice cream shop, that’s their business, but it doesn’t mean someone in a truck is less entitled to do it a different way.
We have beaten the dead horses waay too many times.END IT !
In spite that I am not a mobile vendor, I ask all here to gather support for our Mobile Vendors aka Americana at its best as much as our Route 66 is and go to this meeting at 5.30 today and vote down Jane Mealy’s proposal! I yet do not understand why Flagler Beach residents keep re-electing this woman. She only protects big business associated with FCCOC and the elite interest.
I wanted to provide some perspective on your comment above…. While a few of our members are large organizations like Flagler County Schools or Florida Hospital Flagler, 85 percent are small businesses with less than 10 employees.
Typical. I bet the stick and brick store owners are “small Government” folks that don’t want Government involved in the operation of their business, until they can use Government so they don’t have to compete. There is plenty of market share available for both mobile vendors and store fronts, the last thing the City of Flagler Beach needs to do is get involved in determining who get’s to be successful and who doesn’t.
But then again when you apply for a Business tax receipt (aka Occupational License) it says “application for the privilege of engaging in business”. The privilege? Did you know that it’s now a privilege to engage in feeding your family?
Part of our wonderful American culture is the street vendor. Our town relies heavily on the tourist industry. Tourists are attracted not only for the beach but to enjoy our “village” culture. In my mind, more legitimate street vendors (who are licensed and meet health and safety regulations) should actually be encouraged. For example, New York is made even more charming by their hot dog, pizza and chestnut vendors, and yes. . . even their surburban icecream trucks. The kids just love them!
We simply should NOT be favoring one style of product/service delivery system or vendor over another in our community. . . especially when there have NOT been a long list of safety or health violations. This smacks of local government over-reach to protect a particular business. . . who could have their own ice cream truck. Yes, if there are “real” health and safety issues in the future, then we can “regulate” these kinds of businesses, but putting a complete STOP to them for no apparent reason is not what our citizens want and not what the focus of our city commission should be.
If traffic is slowed down, then so be it. Do we want to continue to develop Flagler Beach as an attractive place to stop and enjoy our delightful coastal town, or should we keep everyone off the streets so tourists can speed on through surburbia?
By the way, can we please stop politizing every issue. . . I am a Democrat who patronizes and is in favor of small businesses. LET’S SUPPORT THE ICECREAM TRUCK!
The flaw in the “progressive” mindset that has besieged Flagler County and the rest of America is the continued removal of more and more of our freedoms.
It requires the liberties of others be removed in favor of the benefit of a few who pretend government needs to exercise more control for their good. It is the exact same corrupt politics that destroyed communist Russia that my senior friends who grew up their talk about.
So, in addition to losing ice cream trucks, everyone who is paying for insurance is now going to pay for 3 million people who don’t pay for insurance. (Agreed, no one should be turned down or away for medical care! Absolutely! But there is a much better way to do it.) Rather than the few in DC reducing health care costs, they increased the costs and spread the increase out to the currently insured, you. A family who is now going to receive full coverage for $250.00 when it costs $1,000.00 = $800.00 spread out to the rest who pay insurance. And the Progressives stuck it to seniors again by redusing Medicare benefits and with an additional 3.8% Medicare Surtax to buy even more votes. Seniors paid their entire working life for it and now they will have to pay an additional 3.8% to keep it. It’s a decision a few in DC made to buy millions of votes that cost the other millions of Americans dearly – rather than reduce medical expenses. And now the American work week is about to be reduced to 29 hours and Obama has sworn he is willing to shut the government down to defend the lunacy! Millions of Americans are about to lose either health insurance coverage and/or 28% of their income and the Progressive Democrats are willing to shut the government down to do so. Who is watching your back? Do we have any love for each other left in this country? It’s crazy making!
Of course Clinton and Obama can stand on the public stage and claim they don’t mind the tax increase to themeselves from what they are doing. Let’s not be blind. The more votes they buy offsets their tax increase by $millions upon $millions more in book endorsements and speaking engagements. They profit from it in a huge way at the expense of most hard working Americans!
There is a reason we have multiple parties and multiple views in society – it’s to prevent stupid things like ice cream trucks from being banned for the benefit of a few who don;t want it to interfere with their profits.
And when the 99% movement catches on to the con-job the progressive movement is up to and realize their vacation home, their annual vacations, their children’s college is no longer affordable when they grow up, maybe then, people will storm the gates of WA DC and demand the government be put on a leash and not be allowed to spend any more than 10% of what any citizen earns. We can no longer trust local councils or 435 people in DC with our freedoms.
Has the time come for a tax payer’s revolt?
The $800 instead of $750 is due to the redundant govt. costs. Govt. math is not real math.
I bet commissioners get free ice cream.
I guess that once again the powers at the helm have let go of the wheel to focus on the smallest of issues that they could concern themselves with. I guess in their quest for fairness, they have forgotten they themselves are already restricting “brick and mortar” businesses in their fair town by exclusion. They have this thing they call First Friday every month that only caters to the businesses that surround Veterans Park and not inviting the guests that attend to venture out to those businesses that are not within a block of the event. Have you ever heard a speaker or anyone else in charge of the microphone suggest to visit the businesses north of Moody or south of the pier? Yeah, I know that they are invited at no charge to come and set up a table at the park so that every un-supervised child running wild while the “parents” sit back in their lounge chairs and enjoy the free concerts. But, that strikes me as not being the same as having the bricks and mortar, does it you? Also, think about the “safety” issue that has been mentioned about the kids running in the street to catch the ice cream truck. Have you ever seen the kids in the park being escorted by the police or their “parents” to cross Moody to get to either the dollar store or the c-store behind Finn’s? Yeah, me neither. I guess their safety concern is only during the day when the ice cream truck is making the rounds, not at night when every driver coming that way is straining their necks to see who is on stage and not watching the kids in the street. The town council of Flagler Beach is too self important, too inwardly focused, and too damn full of their positions to know which way is up when looking though their own legs cause they like the view a little too much!
” Kids running around the street” ?
How about parking on A1A and trying to keep the kids off a highway!
It appears to me that to some degree, the Flagler Beach City Commission has an ***intolerance to some forms of competition***.
I can see how naturally the city’s sentiment would lean toward it’s ‘brick and mortar’ retailers. The brick and mortars fill otherwise empty storefronts and help pay taxes.
Myself, I have a “let the chips fall as they may” attitude in regard to retailers. I don’t know how much these trucks (or this truck) takes a bite out of the other fellow’s lunch, so to speak. Unless there is some health hazard issues, then just license the trucks. If they block streets and alleyways, then the cops can just issue a vehicular citation. As for kids running across A1A;. they’re running in front of traffic from the beach to get to the brick and mortars anyhow. Not something we like to see, but it’s there, every hour of every day.
Hmm… Maybe it was the Flagler Beach Farmer’s Market that caused the Food Lion to pack up and leave since they couldn’t make a profit selling vegetables and fruits? Get the drift?
What has happened to our country!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ban police chiefs, fire chiefs, ice cream vendors…. I hear the mailman is next…..
There are many other ways to make this safe. Also, how many children have been hit by a vehicle enroute to or standing at, the Ice Cream truck in Flagler Beach. I do know that incidents have happened in other areas of the country and this is a legitimate concern, but what this commission is trying to do is coming from one business on Flagler Beach.
I think the best thing this commission can do from now on is this: Put your idea down on a piece of paper. Write down your idea/plan. Then write the exact opposite of this idea down. Use the exact opposite to propose to the public!!! You all lack the reasoning and accountability of any reasonable human.
If we all want to make this sting, stop patronizing the “brick and mortar” business all together and then the business owner will see what they had was better than what they have now.
Let’s see….which “problem” should I ponder…..healthcare, government shutdown or ice cream vendors in Flagler Beach.
Obviously….we are the idiots for having voted these commissioners into office! They make me crazy!!!!!!!

Worcester MP Robin Walker has encouraged local small business owners to enter this year’s Celebrating Success Awards, run by the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB).
There are now just six weeks remaining for businesses in the West Midlands to enter the SME Awards, with the deadline of 12 January 2018 fast approaching. The Awards are free to enter and local small businesses can take part in any or all of the 12 categories as they see fit.
Last weekend Robin showed his support for local businesses as part of the 5th annual Small Business Saturday event. Robin visited a number of small stores around the city alongside representatives from Worcester’s Business Improvement District (BID). The event encourages people to shop in small stores in the city and show support for local entrepreneurs. Last year more than £717million was spent on the day of the event in small businesses across the UK.
Alongside Worcester BID Manager Phoebe Dawson, Robin visited small business award-winner Anja Potze Fine Jewellery in Friar Street, newly-opened coffee shop Black & Whit3, and Stars Best Shop Awards nominee Embrace Lingerie, as well as a number of other businesses in the Hopmarket.
This year’s Small Business Saturday came just a week after the FSB hailed Chancellor Philip Hammond’s “business-friendly Budget” in which a further £2.3billion support package was approved for businesses affected by rate revaluations, heralding the transition to a fairer system of business rates for which Robin has campaigned for many years.
The event also coincided with the 25th annual Worcester Victorian Christmas Fayre, which is thought to have drawn up to 150,000 visitors into the city centre over the course of four days.

As I sit here, typing up this blog post – I have a ginormous mug of coffee beside me, a massive headache, and circles under my eyes like you don’t even know – homeschooling with anxiety can definitely be ANYTHING but pretty! I had a really difficult night last night, and I thought – if I’m struggling, someone else out there is also.
So here I sit, groggily writing this to you (and wondering if there’s a way I can mainline my coffee to get it in my system a little faster).
I have had anxiety disorder since I was a young child. It can be one of the most isolating, terrifying, and overwhelming things to go through. To live every day like you’re constantly on the brink of suffocating, hardly able to enjoy the simplest things.
As I went through childhood, teenagehood, and into young adulthood – I didn’t know it was a “thing”, I just thought these were some weird quirks of mine.
Later on, in college, a doctor finally suggested that what I had thought all this time were just “uniqueness”, was in fact anxiety disorder. I thought I had a pretty good handle on it most of my life, knew my triggers and knew how to handle it.
Then I added homeschooling into the mix, and I have been forced to look my disorder squarely in the eyes and see it for what it is. And to see the effects it was having on my life. I thought I was tough, I thought I could handle it on my own. Until I couldn’t, and when I finally ‘gave in’ and decided to be more proactive about my mental and emotional wellness, it became a much easier burden to bear.
So, for both of us, the journey has not always been easy, the way hasn’t always seemed clear. We have had very dark, stormy days when one or both of us have been struggling with our anxiety.
I am not a medical doctor, nor am I a psychologist. I am not a social worker or any other certified mental health worker.
I am a Mom, homeschooling my two crazy kiddos – and coping with anxiety disorder. What this can mean for me, how it manifests in my life – can be very very different for the next person. Triggers, coping mechanisms, helps – are all unique to each person.
I’m not going to give a long description here of what precisely constitutes ‘anxiety disorder’, but to sum it up in MY own words (remember, I’m not a doctor – if you are concerned that you may be suffering with anxiety, please check in with your medical professional): anxiety disorder is when your mind and body are constantly on “HIGH ALERT”. Essentially, your brain goes into “fight or flight” on a more frequent basis than someone who doesn’t have anxiety disorder.
It isn’t “feeling a bit nervous” or having a sleepless night because you’re worried about which math curriculum you should choose – those happen to ALL of us homeschooling mamas. Where anxiety becomes a disorder is when it interferes with your life, and your ability to homeschool to your best ability. It’s in the intensity, and the frequency.
So what can we do to make homeschooling with anxiety a little less overwhelming?
Get Some Medical Advice. Don’t just read through google and think you’ve got yourself diagnosed. Anxiety symptoms can be hard to spot, they can be very unlike what you would expect them to be. So make sure you find a medical professional you can connect with, and be honest. If things are going on that you can’t otherwise explain – tell them. Get a solid health checkup, because there are often some symptoms of Anxiety Disorder that cross over and can be symptoms of many things (I have a B12 deficiency that also shares some of the symptoms of a anxiety attack being triggered, for instance).
Understand Your Anxiety. I journal, I talk to a counsellor at my MD’s office, I have spent a lot of time recently just trying to get a handle on what MY triggers are, and what my responses are. I have dealt with this anxiety since I was a young child, maybe 5 years old? But homeschooling with anxiety has been an entirely new ballgame. I think many home educating moms feel pretty anxious from time to time, but when your body REACTS to stress and anxiety in more intense ways than most people – it can feel suffocating. SO understanding WHAT anxiety means, what it does, why your body goes through the physical reactions it does – those are what will help YOU find your coping strategies.
Know You’re Not Alone! So many people deal with this disorder, sadly most deal with it quietly and never reach out to others. One of the best things (and most terrifying)I did for my own anxiety, was to join a 6 week workshop for managing stress and anxiety. The things I learned in that class were game-changers for me. But what was most important for me to learn: I am not the only one struggling with this. These other funny, intelligent, successful people in the room with me are all people who feel the way I do, react similarly to things, and feel anxiety in the same ways. Knowing I wasn’t alone in this was a very powerful moment.
Ask For Help (And if someone offers – TAKE the help!) This is a different one than my tip to see your doctor. I don’t mean ask for medical help. I mean – open up to the people who you trust the most. Tell them what it is you’re going through, what is scary, and what you need! Anxiety is one of those “invisible illnesses” – it is easy to just put on some make up, touch up your hair, put on a happy smile and no one would ever know. But one of the most important things we can do as moms who are homeschooling with anxiety – ask for help. Reach out. Let people in and let them know. Often for me, if I’m feeling the anxiety bubbling to the surface, all I have to do is let my partner know “Hey I’m feeling kind of ramped up, I’m not sure what it’s about” and he says “I got you” and sometimes just knowing that the craziness in my head has been told to someone else, is enough to reduce the anxiety a little.
Set Boundaries. This has been a particularly hard one for me. It’s taken me a couple of years to understand that I can’t do All The Things, go to All The Places, and even teach on All The Days. Some days I wake up and feel great, we are productive, and the day goes awesome. Other days, I know by the time I’m sipping on my first coffee that I’m feeling a bit twitchy that day, and short-tempered and so we say “hey let’s go for a hike today, kids” or “wanna just have a documentary and popcorn day?”. Know your limits, set boundaries that are healthy for you, and don’t feel like you have to do all the things all the time. You can’t. And that’s okay.
Find Your Joy! Find the things that bring you peace and happiness and a sense of safety. DO those things. Every day. Make time and space in your life for the things that make your heart sing. Feel a panic attack coming on? Drop your lesson plans, and go for a nature walk or paint or go to the local market. Whatever brings you that simple sense of peace and quiet in your heart – go do that. Homeschooling SHOULD be full of joyful moments, and homeschooling with anxiety shouldn’t take those moments away.
Don’t let your anxiety steal the joy from your life.
Don’t let it make you feel alone or powerless or weak.
You are amazing, you are giving your children the blessing and gift of being educated at home. But it is NOT easy, for any of us. But if you’re finding it hard to travel this road, reach out. Ask for support, get a solid diagnosis, and honour your limits.
It might feel impossible right now, or when you’re having a bad day, but it isn’t. You can do this!
Comment below, or reach out to me privately if you’d like, and let me know how YOU find ways to cope while homeschooling with anxiety.
Mainlining coffee– yeah yeah. I developed anxiety disorder after my thyroid died, but so far it only affects me in crowds. These are great tips, and I really admire the strength you’ve shown in sharing.
For a LONG time, I refused to tell anyone about what this was really like. But there’s definitely power in speking your heart, because once I stopped treating my anxiety like it was something to be ashamed of, I felt less controlled by it. It’s a simple matter of how my body physically responds to stimulus. Nothing wrong with ME, I’m not “CRAZY”, it’s just part of how my body operates. Learning to understand what it really is, and how I can manage it, has really helped me.
Thank you so much for this I needed it.
Great post Nadine! You are amazing and doing a great job with the kids! I’m sure it can be hard at times!
I really admire you my beautiful daughter for all you have accomplished. Both your kids are very well educated and exceptionally wise. Just know I will always be there for you and I am so very proud to be your mom. Awesome post!
Thanks Mom! Having a supportive family has made all the difference in my ability to deal and cope. Thank you for everything you do to help 🙂 love you!
Oh mama, don’t let this stop you! It’s hard some days, and I have a lot of days where I think the same as you. But most days are good, and I know I’m doing the right thing by homeschooling. Hang in there, Megan! We can do this!
Thanks for sharing. While I don’t struggle with anxiety….my hubby and one daughter do. I appreciate these thoughts as I can apply them to some of their situations. Thanks for bravely sharing.
I found you through the giveaway and this post is exactly what I needed to read today!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for writing this. I too have had anxiety since I was very small, didn’t know what it was tho till just in the past few years. My oldest son also has it, and I try to help him with ways to deal with it since I have been (an am going) through it. I didn’t know if any other moms who homeschooled actually struggled with anxiety or it it were just me. So thank you. I appreciate your openness!
Girl, if anyone understands homeschooling with anxiety, its me! Thanks for sharing this post. I can easily say I second all of these suggestions! Anxiety is hard. Homeschooling is hard. Throw them all together – and it can be a hot mess that’s NOT fun sometimes!
I have recently found myself dealing with anxiety. This is our 7th year homeschooling and we were chugging along at a good pace and then bam…… I had a lot of vitamin deficiencies D, B12, iron that I am working on correcting, as well as life changing events. I stopped sleeping . I tried the holistic route for about 3 months and I am currently taking medication for my anxiety, which I am not convinced it is working. Since I am still not sleeping well. Although I just started them a little over a month ago. It is so hard not to feel guilty at all the things you aren’t getting done everyday. People used to think I was super mom and now I struggle to get through the day without feeling anxious.I have a hard time staying focused and getting housework done, let alone homeschooling. I am at the point where if I don’t start to feel better soon then my kids are all going to be shipped to public school next year. I am seeing a therapist that has been helpful as well as talking to others about what is going on with me. Thanks for your blog post it is helpful to know that others struggle and can overcome.
Thank you Nadine for reminding me to journal and investigate my triggers. Also, thank you for reminding me to make rooom/time for things that make me peaceful and happy. Good word!
I want to add one tip for some moms out there. I happen to attend alanon (www.alanon.org) for my anxiouty since the age of 17. I’m 41 now and have found the slogans and steps based on the Bible, super helpful in coping and overcoming. Ok blessings my sweet friend.
I have dealt with anxiety for a long time. It used to be anxiety and depression. Over the years I have learned to deal with different triggers and with time came wisdom. Unfortunately, even though I have come along way from where I was, I still deal with anxiety attacks. Sometimes I can recognize the triggers and other times I can’t. This morning I had an anxiety attack. I did not expect it. My body locked up. My mind raced to find the trigger.
I have made the decision to homeschool our 1st grader this year. I wasn’t able to do lessons today. I have worried about having an anxiety attack during our school year. I wanted to be more prepared. Sadly, the day has turned into what I call a “distraction” day. The kids stay mostly in their room and watch tv, while I try to distract and relax my own self. The more relaxed i can become, the better I cope with today.
I automatically want to feel guilty. In writing this comment, I hope to strengthen my own confidence and maybe someone else’s. I have to be able to give myself a break; to say “It’s OK!”.
I enjoyed and found your article as a moment of relief and encouragement. Thank you.
Oh, friend… I have been there. I have had more days like that than I care to count (or admit). As homeschool parents, we already have so much on our minds and hearts – when you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, chronic physical pain, or anything like that then we add a whole new layer of “stuff to worry about”.
Homeschooling is a long game. It’s okay, it’s really really okay, to have days where you need to do nothing. And you need to take those days, guilt free, as you need them. Sometimes it’s me and my anxiety – sometimes it’s my oldest feeling overwhelmed – sometimes it’s my youngest feeling tired from a bad sleep. Whatever it is, it’s okay to take care of you. Someone once told me, “there are no educational emergencies” and that is SO true. What can’t get done today – can get done another day.
What your kids will learn from this in addition to their ‘actual school lessons’, is compassion – for someone in your family who’s struggling, for oneself. Self care and self love are one of the most important things we can model for our children.
I hope your day clears, I hope your heart settles. Keep in touch!
I have always been an anxious person and as an only child, I have learned ways to cope with it, until now that I have my own kids (one with anxiety issues as well). Its been hard because I too decided to homeschool, while at the same time employed . I just felt that homeschool would ease the anxiety in my boy, but sometimes I’m not really sure anymore because I might be passing on to him my anxiety. And its hard to get support groups in my area that would really understand because mental issues here still carry a big stigma in the community…tiring, yes, but for the love of my kids, With your inspiration, I will carry on.
I completely can empathize with everything you wrote here. I was not always sure that homeschooling my anxious kiddo was the best path. But now, being able to look back on the past 5 or so years, it’s been the BEST decision we could have made for him. He’s really blossoming (on his own time, in his own way) into a funny, bright, confident young man. I don’t know what would have happened if we’d stayed in the ps system, honestly. It’s taken so much one on one time, and patience, to really nurture him out of his shell that I can’t imagine the result had he not been homeschooled.
Carry on, mama, you’re doing an amazing thing.

Founded in 1998, Avalon Medical is focused on bringing the research, development, and sales of innovative surgical products to the veterinary market. We understand how much of yourself you put into your practice; we want to help you achieve your mission by bringing you access to some of the most advanced veterinary medical solutions available.
"RediHeal Ointment saved my horse...don't be without it in your tack box."
"I discovered the extraordinary product, RediHeal, in March 2016. My 10.5 year old Greyhound, Cruiser, was attacked by my Aries. The wounds were massive, and I thought reconstructive surgery and skin grafts were my only alternatives until I discovered RediHeal. After using RediHeal for 2 months, the most concerning wound in the axilla region that extended to the withers and that I could insert both hands into simultaneously, was reduced to a small, manageable wound. I know that this wound would not have healed without RediHeal. I cannot thank Avalon Medical enough for all the support I was given as Cruiser healed. I continue to use RediHeal in my practice as it expedites healing time which is beneficial for pets and their owners."
"Your products are just awesome. Thank you for all you do and for your personal interest!"

IT MAY seem a bit on the early side to be thinking about winter sun as we bask in the last of the summer weather but I have already had several enquiries in the last week and I understand why.
It seems the number of options people are willing to consider has never been smaller with the various troubles that have occurred this year.
This means the acceptable destinations are in high demand and this leads to higher prices and lack of availability for the late booker.
One other issue which people have difficulty with is the ‘last minute bargain’ has disappeared as the airlines are all following a similar pricing policy of making seats more expensive the closer you get to departure.
Combined with the shortage of destinations, the airlines are going to make the most of the demand for those destinations and I have seen some really shocking prices for flights around Christmas and February half term.
I haven’t really got a solution to this problem except to say things are not going to get any cheaper and if you want some sun you must get your booking started now.
One other option is to be braver with destination choices and go for places like Gambia, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt and the Gulf all of which are available yet I am never asked for them.
We used to book these places every year and there is no logical reason for people to shy away from considering them.
Finally there is the option of leaving ‘sun’ out of the requirement list and go for a more interesting holiday like a city break without hordes of other tourists and red hot pavements or a Northern Lights cruise or visit to Iceland?

Lake Grace is a small town in Western Australia's southern wheatbelt. While it doesn't boast major tourist attractions (or many tourists), it does have a unique and very well presented hospital museum which provides a glimpse of how the Australian Inland Mission brought medical care to the outback nearly a century ago.
The Australian Inland Mission was founded by the Rev John Flynn in 1912 to provide nursing posts and hospitals to country towns. The Royal Flying Doctor Service, still saving lives today, grew out of this work. Lake Grace benefitted when the Mission set up a hospital there in 1926, and today it is the only surviving example of such a hospital in Western Australia. Now a museum listed with the National Trust, it has been restored to how it was when functioning as a lifeline for the isolated new community.
I turned up one winter morning during a random drive around the wheatbelt, and was let into the hospital by a gentleman named Bill. He proceeded to give me a guided tour of the building, which from the outside looks much like any old two-story wooden house.
The interior was fully furnished with original items, and as I wandered through the small wards it was easy to imagine the sick and injured being treated here. I enjoyed lively descriptions from Bill, but for those without a human guide there are plenty of signs and printed notes to bring life to what each room was used for.
Many old pieces of medical equipment are on display, as well as more everyday household items. I've worked in a modern city hospital, and the contrast with this Australian Inland Mission hospital was stark. It gave me an appreciation for what we have now, and the challenges faced by the pioneers of small inland settlements like Lake Grace.
Even if, like me, you're not much of a history buff, there is much to be gained from scratching a bit beneath the surface and getting a sense of the history of a place. Even places whose history may seem young. Some museums do a better job than others of bringing the past to life, and the hospital museum at Lake Grace is one of the better ones.

When the realization that she’s lived over half a century lights a fire under Lydia Birnbaum’s rapidly aging but still shapely tush, she decides it’s time to take a new approach to dating –one drawn from her training as a psychotherapist. Determined to avoid the romantic mistakes she’s made in the past, she launches an intriguing research project on Facebook. When “Project Ex” (as in “ex-boyfriends”) unexpectedly turns Lydia into Philadelphia’s radio relationship-guru sensation, she attracts the attention of Jared Abrams, a jaded food-critic-turned-investigative reporter who assumes a fake identity as a new therapy client in an effort to unmask her as a fraud.
Overwhelmed by the pressures of her new career and alternately engaged and enraged by her enigmatic new client, Lydia embarks on an impromptu Caribbean cruise. Though she’s quickly swept into a sizzling shipboard romance with a new love interest, Lydia soon discovers it’s going to take more than a cruise to get her away from Jared and the specter of her past relationship fiascos. Her real journey is about to begin – a journey that will take her far beyond the empirical findings of Project Ex, far beyond her past and into her own heart, where she’ll find what she’s been looking for all along….

This page is about find out how to simply make your personal delicious, home made lemonade. Gamp in all probability simply made these items as a result of it gave her the prospect to drink while placing on a present of doing something healthy and comforting. I could drink loads, and simply get a bit of a tired feeling the following day… lol. Some recipes advocate including the whiskey after simmering the rest of the components, then letting the whole batch quiet down earlier than bottling. Drinking water in the midst of a meal, 5-6 sips causes the meal to be digested sooner.
On the regular worth, not being the form of one who simply has to have beer and sizzling dogs at a ball recreation, I probably would have most well-liked to spend the $80 to get subject level seat, nonetheless in case you plan to eat and drink, notably if you plan to drink several beers, I think the BOA membership tickets are a pretty good value whenever you consider all the other perks.
All rooms at Drink especially the outside garden and patio can be found for personal parties making it the right place to host your subsequent event from birthday and bachelorette parties, graduations… even mitzvahs and corporate occasions of any measurement.
These days although, ‘mild’ usually means a low alcohol beer that’s typically dark and very a lot on the malty facet, though pale versions do exist within the UK. Many animals will drink from the water fountain right away, all of my animals did, however ones which can be scared easily may have a special strategy. JR’z Pub in Austintown (Previous Sammy’s) has $2 Beers, $three Nicely Drinks & $four photographs every single day. Drink Completely different this Summer season, at the most revolutionary nightclub within the Northwest Suburbs. Additionally, drinking this mixture usually doesn’t enable the fat to build up within the body even though the individual may eat a high calorie weight-reduction plan. Sticking small hazardous materials stickers or different caution signs onto the cups is an effective way to make the Jell- look extra like something radioactive. Simply be aware that that is for soju only, beer is just opened the regular (boring) manner.
Mixing up the mum drink and flipping on the black gentle just might lure in some historical Egyptian symbols of fine luck—the scarab. Simply to be safe you might want to simply save this phrase for when the group is actually drunk and has shrunken in measurement or when you are out drinking with pals / other youthful co-staff.

Items that are metaphors tonight: snack cakes, coffee, milkshakes, snakes. Items that are not metaphors: Sam’s ponytail. That thing’s really real.
We open in a sock hop/bebop-looking town, with a $2 Scooby Doo matinee and a quaint soda shop. Clean-cut Conrad begs milkshake waitress Sunny to run away with him, but she refuses. So he bolts, and finds himself in…a modern convenience store.
The startled clerk hands over his cell phone, only to watch the poor Conrad’s head explode. I mean, we all get frustrated when we don’t have any cell service, but that’s just extreme, sir.

At the bunker, nobody’s okay after Michael’s slaughtered, and Cas moves from man to man, worrying about all of them. Jack’s powers are back, but he feels different and isn’t sure how much of his soul is left after vanquishing Michael. He’s also brooding over the gorgon’s snake from last week, concerned it isn’t feeling well.
Meanwhile, Dean’s eating his feelings with Dagwood sandwiches, and Sam’s chasing every case he can so he doesn’t have to picture the bodies of his friends sprawled all over the bunker.
Sam’s itch to be on the move has him heading to Arkansas to explore the head explosion, so Cas offers to accompany him. That leaves Dean to try to reach Jack; after all, he got plenty of practice when Sam was walking around without his sans back in the day.
When they arrive, they find fresh-scrubbed people strolling the streets, heading to bake sales, and generally being gee-willikers wholesome. Cas declares that it’s like The Saturday Evening Post, which he likes to look at after everyone else falls asleep at night because he finds them soothing.
Under the guise of FBI agents, they question a couple on the street, who recommend the milkshakes at Harrington’s and claim not to know what a cell phone is. “Maybe they’re Mormon?” Cas suggests.
That’s apparently bad for business, so Harrington sends them to Conrad’s boarding house. Cas is disturbed by the Pleasantville of it all, but Sam kind of likes it.
The boarding house matron explains that she only rents to young men—bless their hearts, but the morals of young women living alone, don’t you know! Cas tosses Conrad’s room and finds empty closets, a Bible in the nightstand, and extremely explicit love letters from Sunny under the mattress.
Then Sam surprises him by suggested they kick back for the night, enjoy the boarding house’s pot roast dinner, and get a fresh start in the morning. He has been fighting monsters non-stop and is pretty worn out, after all.
Meanwhile, trouble’s brewing in the immaculate house of the couple they bumped into on the street. Justin Smith’s starting to remember things, like the existence of cell phones and the fact that he has a daughter living in Texas. Suddenly he doesn’t recognize his wife or his whereabouts, and as he runs screaming into the night, his head contorts just like Conrad’s, and then…pop.
The next morning, Cas finds the matron grooving to Dodie Stevens through her earbuds, and when he sets out to find Sam, the same song’s playing at Harrington’s. Is it weird that this might be the creepiest part of the town for me? When Cas asks Sunny for the whereabouts of the “very tall man,” she directs him to the house of the late Justin Smith.
Then he goes to sit in a chair and she SCREAMS that it belongs to her husband. When Cas tries to deliver the bad news about his death, she just laughs at his confusion and calls her husband into the room.
And there’s Sam, in horn-rim glasses and a cardigan, that beautiful hair in a cute little ponytail. Even when Cas gets him alone, Sam stays in character, claiming his name is Justin Smith, which prompts Cas to utter a cartoonish, “Oh no,” before asking what the hell is up.
Justin-Sam has had just about enough of that, thank you, and chides Cas for dropping the H-E-double-hockey-sticks. “If you cannot remain civil, you can skedaddle,” he says before tossing Cas out.
Daddy Dean decides that it’s time for a road trip, so he, Jack, and the snake pile into Baby and set out. Dean’s still trying to get the snake to eat and offers Jack two plastic-wrapped snack cakes to feed it, one angel food and one devil’s food. “I don’t think you have a firm grasp on what snakes eat,” Jack says.
Although Jack assumes most people are scared of snakes, Dean assures him that snakes are cool; it’s just their bite that’s dangerous. Then Jack shuffles the snack cakes around in his hands for an eternity before finally settling on angel food, which visibly relieves Dean.
Inside, Donatello recalls how Amara ripped his soul right out of him, then pours cream in his coffee and compares himself to a galaxy: bright and shiny, with an empty black hole in the center. “So you feel bad,” Jack says.
Jack ponders for a bit and says he doesn’t feel nothing, but it’s not the same. Mostly, he doesn’t want his family to worry about him. Seems to me that’s feeling something, right?
After their session, Donatello tells Dean that if Jack seems okay, he probably is. Oh, but also, don’t forget he’s the most powerful being in the universe, so who knows what’s going on in his head?
All righty, back to Charming Acres. Cas accuses Sunny of being a brainwashing witch and threatens to rip the truth from her mind with his powers, until Harrington rolls up with a posse of menfolk, including Justin-Sam, to claim responsibility.
He explains that the town started to wither when the mill shut down and people moved away or turned to drugs and alcohol. Then his wife died and the modern world kept getting worse and, well, one day he wished that more people would come to the soda shop, and when he stopped by, it was packed.
That’s when he realized he could make people do whatever he wants, and he set out to make everything perfect. He remade the town and gave everyone new names and new lives. The ones who fought it had to be eliminated to protect their home.
This is when we learn that Sunny is his daughter, as she denies sharing any powers with her father. Harrington chases her outside while Cas grapples with the mayoral posse. He knocks out the first two quickly enough, but Justin-Sam pins him down and threatens him with an angel blade.
Cas tells Sam that he knows what it’s like to lose your army and fail as a leader, but emphasizes that the thing to do is keep fighting. If not, you fail those who are gone as well as those who remain.
This argument works, and Sam dramatically rips off the horn rims. They run outside in time to hear Harrington tell his daughter that in this town, he’s God. Cas, who’s met God, hotly corrects him: “God has a beard.” Cas is a quip machine tonight!
Harrington starts to make Sam’s head explode, and Sunny finally unfurls her own power to tell her father to be happy. It leaves him trapped inside his own mind, content in a beautiful world where he can’t hurt anyone.
And that’s the end of the Charming Acres case, but boy, do I have questions about how Sunny lives her life from here on out, what with her having those powers at her fingertips.
Sam needs time, and Dean’s willing to give it to him.
Alone in his room, Jack holds the snake and calls upon his new WWWD motto to figure out how to help the sad animal. Reasoning that the snake misses its friend, Jack offers to help them be reunited…in heaven. The snake turns to ash in his hands as Cas watches from the doorway.
It’s not the snake you have to fear, it’s the bite. And it’s not Jack you have to fear, it’s all of that power in the body of one gentle being who may not have the best grasp on just what, exactly, the Winchesters would actually do in certain scenarios. May they find a way to fill any black holes in Jack’s center before anything else gets ashed to Heaven.
Gotta love the new Justin-Sam and Cindy Smith being positively scandalized that Castiel came to call and he wasn’t even wearing a hat. Although can we all agree that the town’s brainwashing would never have let Sam keep his little ponytail? Haircut, stat!
Mr. Rogers is the best man any of us have ever known. Accept no substitutes.

When someone performs a juice fast they consume nothing but juice. This can be used to aid in weight loss and many overweight people doing a juice fast report significant weight loss. The purpose of juice fasting may not be weight loss however. Many people juice fast to detoxify and rid their body of toxins.
It should be said that anyone thinking of doing a juice fast should consult with their doctor and make sure they are getting all the vitamins and nutrients they need from the juice they will be consuming.
It’s also important to carefully plan out your fast and establish how long you aim to fast for, what types of juice you will consume and recognize any warning signs that mean you should stop. Many people report getting symptoms such as headaches, rashes and nausea when starting a juice fast. These can be effects of withdrawal from caffeine and sugar and should be carefully monitored.
Many doctors see juice fasting as extreme and question its benefits. This is often because people seek to abandon their unhealthy diet to go on a juice fast but then rebound and end up back on their unhealthy diet.
It’s important to realize that juice fasting is not a miracle cure for diseases. But it can be used to shed a few pounds and kick start a change in lifestyle. The long term benefits of juicing far outweigh the benefits of a short juice fast, so consider carefully what it is you want to achieve by fasting.
A juice fast will allow you body to rid itself of toxins and may help you lose some weight. But the question to ask yourself is why do you need to rid your body of toxins? What put those toxins there in the first place?
If the answer is an unhealthy lifestyle then why not consider changing that lifestyle. Juicing can be a part of a healthy lifestyle and help you reach optimal nutrition without poisoning your body with foods that taste good but contain many substances harmful and toxic to your body.
The hard part is realigning yourself to a healthy diet. Because so much of what we eat today is an addictive cocktail of sugar, fat and salt which programs our brains to want and consume more of the same. The key is to break this cycle of consumption and retrain ourselves to enjoy and consume natural foods that aid our bodies instead of hampering them.
Hey great article. I just finished a 3 day juice cleanse and can honestly say I feel much better. I feel lighter, my thinking is clearer and my digestive system is cleaned out. Just from 3 days! Thanks again.
Denise. Juicing has been great for me. After searching for so long I finally found something that works for me. I feel I have been cured of my long time sugar addiction because I have a better understanding of how my body works. After juicing and having a cheat day with a piece of cake, my body felt like I had been druged. Then the cravings came I leared ur body craves what u give it. No sugar no cravings. And the health benefits like clear skin, more energy, less aches and pains can’t be beat. Weight loss is a byproduct not a goal. Health is a goal. I love it.

My Deep Waters Ministry (DWM) is a biblical counseling ministry that has 3 branches: Biblical Counseling, Christian Education & Discipleship Resources, and Missional work to the Homeless. If my personal ministry or a partner’s ministry falls in to these 3 categories, it is a DWM funded project, frequently with my oversight and involvement.
I counsel (one-on-one) in my home office or at various churches under the Pastor’s or Chaplain’s care, knowledge and follow up. I provide christian education and resources and sometimes funding for facilitation of small groups, and missional homeless advisement (an example is getting welfare secular youth into a Christian retreat along with a “faith essay” contest each year for the past 4 years). I work on a secular board of governance in the 5 county region welfare environment for homelessness of youth, representing myself as a biblical counselor, mentor and Christian voice in a sea of chaos.
I have partnered with Logan Hope school for a new small group after-school program for 8th graders for strengthening and encouragement and preparation for high school.
I counsel (generally) 7-8th graders at Logan Hope school, high school seniors in my immediate community (Conestoga HS, Berwyn and Great Valley SD, Malvern PA), college students and others who mainly suffer with anxiety. Ministry fruit has appeared in heart-change, growth and transformation out of the painful depths of suicide, sexual harm and loneliness and depression struggles. I am a Senior High youth teacher at my weekly church youth group for high school girls, teach adult Sunday School on occasion and am a member of our church’s Missions Committee (Great Valley Presbyterian, EPC).
Let me know how I can extend the love of Christ to you this day.
