Sitting at my kitchen table Sylvester stared at the container of powder supplement before him.
“It says here, it’s ‘Protein Supplement For Men’.”
“Well, keep it away from me,” I replied. “There’s so much estrogen coursing through my body at this point I don’t think it’s going to do me much good.”
“I’m supposed to mix it with milk and add a banana for a nourishing drink. That’s what the packaging says,” continued Sylvester.
It’s so refreshing to see him taking his health seriously. I sincerely believe we should invest in ourselves with a healthy diet, as you likely know.
“Just put it in the blender with some milk, then,” I said handing him a banana from the fruit bowl.
I got up and left the kitchen to slip into my yoga clothes as I knew Sebastian would be arriving shortly to help me with my yoga practice. I do so like to start the day with a stretch. I laid a mat down in the living room and put on a little calming music, lit a couple of candles and some incense before going up to change.
When I returned to the kitchen there was Sylvester drinking a large glass of his fresh smoothy. I glanced at the table, and noticed he had used 10% creamer milk, rather than the 2% milk I generally drink.
“How’s that taste, Sylvester,” I asked.
“Oh, it’s good,” he replied.
“You might want to use the 2% milk next time,” I suggested. “That’s practically straight cholesterol you’re drinking.”
Sylvester looked at the milk carton and frowned.
“Tastes good, though,” he said.
At that point the doorbell rang, and Sebastian arrived.
“Is Sylvester joining us for yoga this morning,” asked Sebastian as he put his gym bag down.
“Oh, I don’t think so. He’s too busy drinking his creamy man protein,” I said.
Sebastian glanced dubiously at Sylvester.
“Really,” he said. “I didn’t know he was into that sort of thing.”
However, that’s not the main reason I’m writing to you today. Jules has just put out a very good piece on Youtube which you might enjoy. There’s some excellent Youtubers on the slate this week. I’d like to draw attention to pieces by Andy in Warsaw, Leah Passaniti and Lily Alexandre. Use these hotlinks to listen to some great content.
These can keep you informed and supported. There’s some really great stuff there. I enjoy listening to these pieces and find I can stay reasonably well informed if I do. Have a listen and see what you think. In these times of such upheaval it’s quite important to stay informed and connected to sources of good information. Just in case you’re not aware of it, the hotlinks in my posts usually take you somewhere pretty interesting. 🙂
Have a lovely week.

She barrelled in, coughing and spluttering like a diesel engine that hadn’t been run in a while. Amanda then went on to tell us of the latest disaster to befall her. Amanda was coming by, fresh from her gynecologist. Now, if there was ever a job that requires a strong stomach, being Amanda’s gyny would be the top of that list. Apparently Amanda was in the midst of an exam, had a coughing fit and one way or another the poor man was taken off to hospital with a broken wrist!
