ONE OF THE BEST THINGS DR. CASSAR HAS SAID TO HELP ME: YOU’RE NOT HUNGRY, YOU’RE THIRSTY.

ALOHA! OK. Yesterday was unusual. FASTED in the morning (2 crackers, water, black coffee, medications) and then went to a FUNERAL. In case ya’ll didn’t know, in the American Southeast , YOU’RE NOT ALLOWED TO DIE unless there is a Church Lady cooked, huge buffet of filling comfort foods!
