coconut oil, reverse osmosis and other things
we’re been MIA for a little while. a short trip up north to visit my little nieces and nephew turned into a 10 day adventure. my grandfather hitched a ride back down to toronto with us for a series of back treatments. picture this, 88 year old croatian man moves in with musician couple for a week in small downtown toronto apartment. yes, hilarity ensued. i wish we did indeed start a twitter account called “thingsmygirlfriendscroatiangrandfathersays” as per richard’s suggestion. he is hilarious! we drank a lot of starbucks, hung out at chapters reading books about croatia and learned to make several kinds of soup. my grandfather also really like da ali g show. borat in particular. i feel really fortunate to have had the opportunity to hang out with dida in MY environment. sure, we visit him when we go up north on holidays and such, but to have him here in our little urban zen den was really cool!!! at times, trying, but cool nonetheless. he was also fascinated by the photobooth feature on our laptops and he recorded himself telling many jokes. translated from croatian, i’m never sure when to laugh…was THAT the punchline?
other things that are on my mind lately are chemicals. nasty horrible chemicals. and additives. blech. so as the cold weather kicks again and skin starts to get dry i am going to stick with using COCONUT OIL as my main moisturizer. the key is to slather it on, but then wipe it off so you don’t stain your clothes or end up looking like a little grease monkey. this stuff smells SO GOOD! and we cook with it too.
next up on the “things i want” list is a reverse osmosis water filter. fluoride is just plain scary and clogs up your pineal gland.

it’s ADDED to our water and we just accept this. no, you do not need it for your teeth. in fact, we are now using natural fluoride free toothpaste exclusively. and when you can’t find any of that, just mix some COCONUT OIL with a little baking soda and you’re good to go w/ a homemade paste that won’t cloud your brain like fluoride. aren’t you glad you read our blog!?
