OK...Let's Do It! Potato Diet 2015

I see a couple of folks clicked the "Potato Diet" tab up top and started playing around with it. I've been putting this post off for a while, wanting to get some gut testing info back from AmGut first, but what the heck?  Let's just do it!  Who needs to lose a couple pounds?  I put on 5 pounds this Winter and want it GONE!  So, next week, Monday through Friday, I'll be eating nothing but potatoes.  Anyone want to join in?

Let's Talk about Kefir!

Hey, everybody - Giselle from Your Kefir Source wanted to drop by and talk about kefir. She has a great website with everything you could ever want to know about kefir.

After reading Giselle's website today, it made me want to try again.
