Day Off

Today I had the day off, so I was able to get around to some things I'd been putting off as well as do a little carving. The spoon is coming along nicely. I've nearly finished shaping it. Now I just need to trim it down some more to make it a manageable size.

While I carved, I ate some leftover chicken legs from the other nights dinner. Not too shabby a lunch if I do say so.



Then I did some gear repairs. Anyone who knows me knows that I almost exclusively wear wool socks during the colder months. So after almost a season of wear I had a cheap pair blow out on me. No worries. Just a chance to practice my sewing skills. So today I did some repair work on the socks as well as a wool sweater I had torn out at the arm pit. For sewing and other repairs, I use bankline. It's waterproof and will hold up to almost anything. I've had a bankline bracelet on for over a year, and it is showing no signs of wear. Any man worth his salt should be able to sew and do it well. I've got a sewing kit in my office and my kit stocked with bankline. If you don't have any, I recommend you pick some up today. It's as versatile as it is tough. 


What is Paleo?

The general idea of Paleo nutrition is that we remove all those foods which weren't eaten by our hunter/gatherer ancestors. This is done to achieve optimal health according to our evolutionary biology. This infographic should provide some specifics. The benefit is that eating this ways eliminates all processed and refined foods which have no place in our bodies. In essence, if you can't hunt it or gather it - don't eat it.
