The Joy Of Growing - SweetSue Goes Perpetual

I can tell just by looking that those brownies are moist and delicious! So good Sue!

Thank you ShiggityFlip. It's a modified box mix and so easy to make. Everything fits into the saucepan you melt the butter in. The pot is all you have to wash up. The caramel took the brownies to a whole different level, and it's my insistence on using butter instead of all oil that gives it the flavor bump to cover the cannabis taste, which I'm fond of anyway.

It's important to me to ingest the plant material and not just the THC. I honestly believe it's been behind my appetite suppression. I have no other explaination, since that started when I began eating brownies instead of smoking.

If we lived in a progressive country, we'd have researched these things already. What I'm suggesting is that a plant most people view as an appetite stimulant can be used for the opposite effect as the cannabis and your own body systems join forces to create homeostasis, including the resetting of the appetite control switch in the brain.
 
That's very interesting Sue, I hadn't thought about that. I wondered why you ingested the plant material. If that's as effective as you say then you may have found the perfect diet. Eat brownies, get happy, lose weight. Now that's a diet!

My point exactly. I probably eat less than half what I ate before I started eating cannabis plant material. Some of that can certainly be chalked up to the changes brought on by his death, but I enjoyed food. Now food is fuel. Tasty and nutritious, but lacking the draw it used to have on me. Now I shoot for what I was trained by my mother to call " Bull's Eye foods" - those super foods high in nutritional value, like yams, bell peppers, wild rice, root vegetables. I find the diet simplifying as I go on. I'm intrigued, watching it happen.

I remember something about the oil having this effect, which makes sense, given the levels of concentration. I'll have to ask around now, to satisfy my curiosity about that.
 
Daily Update: Perpetual Tent - Week 18, Day 5

image3199.jpeg


Maintenance notes:
- DeLahaze got a TransWater drench.
- Original Bubblegum got a Trans/Tea drench.
- Everyone who needed it got a 1/4 turn. The Afghani, The Dark Devil Auto behind it and Carnival get that turn every day. The rest get it when I determine a need.

Just a few closing shots to share.

What tempting little morsels on the Unknown Seed. I want so badly to snip one off and let it dry, but I know the longer I put that off the bigger they'll be.

It's been a fun day in SweetSue's world. I haven't laughed this hard in quite a while, but you guys are always good for that. You ramped up the levels and I like it. Laughter is the best medicine. :battingeyelashes:

I'm done for the day guys. My body just reminded me that I didn't get any sleep last night. I forgot all about that. :laughtwo: Whew! It HAS been a good day. LOL!

I'll you tomorrow. :Love:
 
Wow, your Carnival is a real beauty - love the structure, the perfect shape and canopy - very nice! :bravo: +reps!

And you're going to have plenty of time for it to finish, too. :slide:

Being able to let her finish out pleases me to no end. Thank you Graytail. I'm grinning like a butcher's dog here and I need to get to bed! :laughtwo: You set an excellent example, well documented and easily deciphered by anyone serious about the craft to let the eye see it. You made it easy for me, and I appreciate your dedication to the community that compelled you to care enough to leave that trail.

I had do it competently. You mentored me. How could I let you down in front of all these people? :laughtwo: Hasn't it been fun? I can tell you honestly, I've had a blast. :kisstwo:

I use a tincture every day. In the last 2 years I have lost about 50 lbs. I have plateaued and it is staying there. Everyone says "You Look Great!! What is your secret?" I tell them the medication I am taking helps keep the weight off. :) :peace:
 
Morning Love!

Look at this! I found something growing in one of my pots! It took me by a bit of shock actually. I wish you could have heard me.

I found this little green thing (Left side of the photo (it's small)) and immediately I screamed in my head "Susan!!!! there's something in my pot!!!!

Sounded like a young boy yelling from his room for his mother because he couldn't find the matching pair of socks or something.

Anyways, can someone explain this? :rofl:

:Love:

That looks like a little tomato

There we go. I'm not imagining it. So, I'm getting the same benefit from eating all that plant material in my brownies. Hahaha! What a way to lose weight, eh? I need someone else to test it out over the course of months. Even an unscientific test would be interesting at this time. Has anyone else in the room noticed this correlation in your own life?

I'm fairly certain that the results may be tied to the way I've been dosing with regularity.

Exactly Sue! What a lot of us don't realize is that eating healthier doesn't mean eating bland.
It's weird when we have guest that sit at our table and really enjoy meals never noticing that we eat somewhat healthy and stay away from those negatively charged foods. I've been called everything from a Chef to a Kitchenoligist only because of awakening taste buds in dinner guest they never knew they had (sugar & salt are so mundane and I use them in super moderation).

You should try some sauteed Lambs Quarters over baked fish; Last night's dinner.

I put quite a bit of stuff in mine but only in terms of nutrients. (8 jugs worth) :geek::bitingnails:

It's gotta be a good thing to have a little one growing in there isn't it?
 
Good Morning everyone. :Love:

Greetings from SweetSue's happy tent.

I have three weeks left. She'll get her CAT drenches in and I should be able to fit another couple Energy drenches in before harvest. There's my hope, and she seems a willing participant.

I have no idea yet what needs done in there. More than likely nothing other than turn and photograph. :battingeyelashes:

Before I get lost in the day I want to wish you a day filled with the magic loving generates in your soul. Dare to take that risk you've been mulling over. I've had long and frequent talks with myself lately about living a "guided life". If you believe that your life is guided by the loving force that created and moves the Universe then every once in a while you're going to get an inspiration that feels necessary but flies in the face of reason. In my own life I've experienced this numerous times, most notably when I conceived my son - an event that broke every social rule my upbringing had taught me and eventually landed me in the arms of the man who shared my life with love and passion for 35 years. I met Dale when my son was two weeks old. The rest is history, as they say. :battingeyelashes:

When those moments happen you would be well advised to roll with it. The driving force of the universe might know a thing or two that you don't and you're either guided or your not. You can't have that one both ways. You accept it or you don't. If you accept it then do it with every fiber of your being and watch your life transform with that leap of Faith. John's recent experience in watching his cancer cells shrink to nothing while using the oil is a prime example of this concept in practice. He didn't allow himself to question. He believed with every fiber of his being that it would work. Today, if he dies, it won't be cancer that did it. John honey, stay alive. :circle-of-love:

If we could prove it you wouldn't need Faith, would you?

Get out there and spread that joy with abandon people. Let's change the world. :battingeyelashes: :green_heart:
