    Hi everyone,

    I see things are broken here...I will fix them. I'm not sure why things are duplicating.

    Yesterday morning, I was taken by ambulance to the ER with a BP reading of 200/110. I'm okay and back home now.

    Anyhow, I'll fix all of those issues with my BBS tonight (it's 2:40 AM and I need to be at the VA by noon for an audiology appointment).

    Yikes!!! Have they been feeding you prednisone? Whenever they slip that
    to me the BP and blood sugar reading head for realms that Buck Rogers
    was trying to reach. Thae care, dude. We don't want a blow oout.

    Title: Blowout Rib-Eye
    Categories: Five, Beef
    Yield: 4 servings

    2 1/2 lb Bone-in rib-eye; 2" to 3"
    - thick
    Salt & black pepper

    Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for indirect cooking so
    that one section of the grate is quite hot and there is
    no heat under the other part. (Or put a dry cast-iron
    skillet in the oven and turn the heat to 325ºF/165ºC) If
    the steak is floppy (and the butcher hasn’t done it
    already), tie a string horizontally around it to help it
    cook evenly. Rub the meat and bone on all sides with
    salt and pepper, and let it come to room temperature.

    Put the steak on the cool side of the grill (or in the
    hot pan) so that the bone is toward the hot side. Cover,
    and cook until it releases evenly from the grates or pan
    and has an internal temperature of about 100ºF/38ºC, 5
    to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the cut and
    the heat of the grill.

    Move the steak to the hot part of the grill, and cook,
    undisturbed, until it sears and releases easily, 2 to 5
    minutes. (If indoors, transfer the skillet to the stove
    over medium-high heat.) Repeat with the other side,
    cooking it to one stage before your desired doneness. If
    you want truly rare, remove the steak when its interior
    measures 125ºF/52ºC, or even a little bit less; for
    medium-rare, 135ºF/57ºC is about right. Let the rib-eye
    rest on a surface that will capture any juices for at
    least 5 and up to 15 minutes.

    Remove the string if you used one, and cut away the
    bone. Slice as thickly or thinly as you like, and serve
    with the meat juices and any of the sauces.

    No, it just happens from time to time plus I was not taking a daytime BP med (I am now). I had a phone appointment with my doc yesterday,

    Tomorrowe, I have to be at a local hospital for my gastric emptying test and that looks like it's going to be a very boring four hours.

    Didn't have any "Riders of the Purple Sage" recipes in stock. So
    I'm doing my "Burton" with a Purple Carrot (a meal delivery service)

    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Riders of The Purple Carrot Buddha Bowl
    Categories: Vegan, Grains, Greens, Herbs, Sauces
    Yield: 2 servings

    1 1/2 c quinoa
    3 c + 6 tb water; divided use
    2 c Shredded red cabbage
    3 c Curly kale
    15 oz Can black beans
    4 tb Sauerkraut
    3 tb Tahini
    1 tb Ginger; minced
    1 ts rice wine vinegar
    2 tb Sesame seeds

    Rinse and dry the produce. Remove stems from the kale
    and slice into ½ inch ribbons. Peel and mince the
    ginger. Rinse and drain the black beans and set aside.

    Pour quinoa and 3 cups water into a small pot. Bring to
    a boil, then reduce heat. Cover and simmer until quinoa
    grains are tender, about 10-15 minutes.

    Meanwhile, saute the cabbage with 2 tablespoons water in
    a large saute pan over medium heat. Stir occasionally
    and cook until cabbage is softened and bright purple,
    about 5 minutes.

    Add the chopped kale to the pan, cover and reduce heat
    to low. Allow kale to cook until slightly wilted and
    bright green, about 5 minutes.

    While vegetables are steaming and quinoa is cooking,
    make the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the
    tahini, minced ginger, rice wine vinegar and remaining 4
    tablespoons of water until you have a smooth and creamy
    consistency.

    To serve, assemble each bowl with quinoa, cabbage, kale,
    black beans and sauerkraut. Top with ginger-tahini
    dressing and sesame seeds. Enjoy!

    Dunno why but this did not show up at Reality Check or I'd have answered
    with this morning's packet. So, here I am getting tomorrow's packet ready
    to finish and cast into the bit stream answereing today's mail ....

    I used to ignore my high blood pressure ... to the point that my
    kidneys shut down and were permanently damaged. So, besides my daily BP med I'm taking a pee pill.

    I discovered that I missed a dose of Coreg (carvedilol), a beta blocker tht really slows down my heart and helps keep things under control.

    I invested in a set of dispenser racks. They're plastic and have AM and P< compartments. When it's dope time I flip up the cover of the appropriate
    bin and tip the contents into a plastic "souffle' cup" (restaurant lingo
    for a shot glass sized little cup than some restaurants use to hold single servings of grated cheese, herbs, etc. There is also a dispenser rack with comaprtments for noot-time dope runs. But, since I'm on (finally) just AM
    and PM scheduling ....
