A Dog Awaits Her (or His) Entree

A Dog Awaits Her (or His) Entree

I’ve recently continued filtering through 20 years’ worth of digital photographs, searching for more gems to process and place into my public portfolio.

“A Dog Awaits Her (or His) Entree” was taken several years ago at a roadside cafe near Torrey Pines State Beach in Southern California. I saw this excellent dog, sunglasses strapped around his or her neck, sitting at a table with a cup of coffee. I couldn’t help but notice the unmistakable look of anticipation one gets while waiting for the main course to arrive, so I snapped a quick shot.

I never saw the dog’s parent(s). And I don’t know how big a tip this pooch left, but I betcha it was more generous than most humans!

If you ever get the chance, visit Torrey Pines, it’s gorgeous!

Tripping over sand and sea is a not-so-guilty pleasure that I’d love to do more often…I’m thinking every single morning!

Enjoy,

Travel-Friendly Ginger-Stevia Tea

Travel-Friendly Ginger-Stevia Tea

This ginger tea recipe is as simple as a crystal-clear blue sky…just two ingredients. As always, organic is preferable.

You’ll need these two items: 

  • 1 – 2 Dashes Ginger Powder
  • 1 Small Spoon Stevia Powder

…and you’ll also want to have on hand some hot water and a tea mug 🙂

Stevia-Ginger Tea Ingredients

Add 1 – 2 dashes ginger powder to your tea mug:

Add Ginger

Next, add in the stevia…

Add Stevia

…and note how I’m using the little white spoon that usually comes with a container of stevia. Also note that I let the stevia heap and crawl up the handle, because my sweet tooth will have me asking for sweet things long after I’ve left this mortal coil.

Lastly, pour in some hot water, stir and you’re good to go! Very helpful to sip this with a meal…ginger is a well-known digestive, and is among my favorites aside from chewing fennel seeds or having a glass of red wine.

Drink up and enjoy!

Yours in Great Health,
