Granny's gone and done it again

how many have hatched?

20+ expecting about 25 to hatch. I'm afraid that using pullet eggs some had 2 yolks and they will not hatch. It's hard for me to tell when they are. Need more practice with the candling light.

This time next week the same process going on again. Same mix of eggs.

I had eggs for 4 hatches but didn't set 3&4 after breaking ribs. Maybe I can do 4 batches in December.

Ive heard a couple peeps hatched twins but very hard to do.
I miss hatching badly.

I need to go to my roost once again and sleep off the coffee I tortured my body with today.
Goodnight and sweet dreams.

What is the Mediterranean diet?​

The Mediterranean diet is a way of eating based on the traditional cuisine of countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea. There's no single definition for the diet. But most often, it's high in:

• Vegetables.
• Fruits.
• Whole grains.
• Beans.
• Nuts and seeds.
• Olive oil.
• Seasoning with herbs and spices.

The main steps to follow the diet include:

• Each day, eat vegetables, fruits, whole grains and plant-based fats.
• Each week, have fish, poultry, beans, legumes and eggs.
• Enjoy moderate portions of dairy products.
• Limit how much red meat you eat.
• Limit how many foods with added sugar you eat.

Plant based, not meat based​

The foundation of the Mediterranean diet is plant foods. That means meals are built around vegetables, fruits, herbs, nuts, beans and whole grains.

Moderate amounts of dairy, poultry and eggs are part of the Mediterranean diet, as is seafood. In contrast, red meat is eaten only once in a while.

This info is from the Mayo Clinic website.

If that works for you do it. It would not work for me. I wish my BS was that low. Mine is around 110.

My BS hangs down around 100. I'm sure I spike it from time to time and my A1C has been creeping up because of I cannot use it up with working exercises like I used to could. I should start monitoring it with those finger sticks again. When I pickup scripts today a package of strips and a new reader will come home with me. The days of walking 10-12 miles a day after an 8-5 office type job are over with. These old bodies just don't last forever no matter what we do. I can't eat like my mother did and my brother couldn't eat like could. I am concerned about not becoming diabetic. I've been close before and reversed my A1C and am working on it now.

Good morning granny land. It's almost time to press that button on the coffee pot.
