I like to sometimes sleep mummy-style. Tucked in, straight on my back hands crossed on my chest. Falling into a deep sleep like that is coooozy.
Otherwise, I sleep just like you, 5 pillows like a nest.
I think we need this:

sleepie I am going to look up turmeric. If I block out stomach-turning in my mind it actually sounds appealing to me lol

I love meat. Protein. steak. cheese. bolognese sauce. chicken boobs. meeeeeeeeeeat. And veggies!

trachemys

Turmeric is part of my morning anti-inflammatory cocktail.

Dee74

doesn't it taste like dirt?

D

trachemys

No, it tastes like turmeric.

I really don't notice the taste in my cocktail. It is a bit gritty. The results are worth it.

Delizadee

No, that would be my ex-monster-in-law's cooking. muahaha

Interesting stuff.

Turmeric is a spice that comes from the turmeric plant. It is commonly used in Asian food. You probably know turmeric as the main spice in curry. It has a warm, bitter taste and is frequently used to flavor or color curry powders, mustards, butters, and cheeses. But the root of turmeric is also used widely to make medicine. It contains a yellow-colored chemical called curcumin, which is often used to color foods and cosmetics.
as per Webmd

it sounds like a super spice.

Makes me think of, Spice Girls.

It's a very strong anti-inflammatory. The curcumin is the key. Same plant family as ginger.

Been readin' IWNDUT's. Practical advice is good. So long as everything has meat and garlic in it. Jokes aside the whole not drinking bit takes on a more holistic perspective because it does encompass healthy eating, sleep, exercise- perhaps wearing a colander on my head wrapped in tin foil in public.

Dee74

yeah I've had it before - not a fan of the taste outside cooking in certain dishes.

Don't you have to ingest giant quantities of turmeric to get the anti-inflammatory action?

I'm just going to keep listening to music. It's anti-inflaming me.

trachemys

wait, chicken boobs? I hate chicken breasts. tasteless. Thighs are where it's at.

trachemys

I find a quarter teaspoon a day does me good with my other stuff.

courage2

Objectifying hens in terms of breasts & thighs is racist.

trachemys

So, I'm fowl?

Delizadee

I like boobs and thighs. I'm not racist towards hens at all.
Roosters on the other hand? They wake me up too early in the morning.

Delizadee

Dee74

steady folks...I'm not really in a mood today.

sleepie

Well guys I now eat my words from earlier... And this hot dog... This city has history in encased meats and I honor that tonight.

This brownie, not so historical but who's counting?

Yolo and all. Back to the turmeric dirt soup tomorrow.

Delizadee

Sorry Dee I will behave.

Well sleepie, we're all allowed to treat ourselves from time to time! Do you have a recipe for the turmeric soup? I'm curious now, or do you buy it premade?
