Fish oil update

Alright, it’s been about a week and a half since I started the fish oil experiment.  I upped my daily intake to 2000 milligrams a day about 4 days ago.  Seriously, my elbow feels a lot better, and I am able to run without pain in my ankle.  I am not saying I am cured […]

Eggplant Parmesan Dinner Recipe

Let me just start off by saying, I love to cook.  I wish I cooked more often but sometimes I just find myself in a time crunch.  I know it’s a sorry excuse but it happens.
I decided that I wanted to try something new.  My husband is trying to eat less red meat so I really […]

Wine auction featuring red and white table wines from Greece

Today, Stephi and I went to a couple of mini-storage auctions.  The main one was located in downtown Wilmington.  The neat thing about this one was that the first part was the selling off of 500 cases of wine.  A company called Aegean Imports was storing the wine in  climate controlled units, but apparently did […]

Visit to Cameron Art Museum in Wilmington, North Carolina

I visited the Cameron Art Museum, located in Wilmington, North Carolina.  I grew up frequenting the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C.  Though Cameron Art Museum is not near the size of the National Gallery, I was surprised at some of the maritime paintings dating from the early 19th century.  The museum also housed rooms of […]

Fish oil, the savior of humans

University of North Carolina Wilmington opens Library for public use
