Now you're talking.

It may not have been one of those fugitive flashes ---but it was solid.

In other news, according to this; http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/iron-deficiency-anemia/manage/ptc-20266647

I didn't know that either.

Now you can have watermelon with your spinach.

Sounds strange, but after a spinach salad (with hard boiled egg?) a nice fat slice of watermelon could be nice...

If you like fish, and whitefish would do, Arctic and Icelandic cod is waay better than cheaper tilapia (which is fresh water, farm raised, often imported from China)

Whether the cod would those have more iron - I don't know, but would guess it's likely they would. The point of this jabbering is grilled fish crumbled up in a nice salad can be good. Everyone has heard about Crab Louis (salad). Substitute whitefish, and there ya' go.

One recipe --- in normal iron skillet --- hot oil (not too hot) add one teaspoon of soy, and one tablespoon of vinegar. Quickly ---add fish fillets. I say quickly because when the oil is hot, it will begin bubbling and steaming the vinegar and soy. Heat for 3 minutes on one side (for a one inch thick fillet, possible less for thinner pieces), turn the fillet over in the pan and heat for 2 minutes more. Remove and drain on paper, and paper towels -- whatever. The fish should easily break apart, allowing one to crumble it into salad (spinach, maybe some red lettuce). I would go ahead and put the fish right into the salad and use a fork to gently break it up, instead of dirtying up yet another bowl, or plate.

Before you know it, you'll be good as new. And just think of all the fun you could have -- if you use enough hard boiled eggs, a while later you could hold your hand out to Mr. Don-o, and say "pull my finger". Take care with that last, however. Ask oneself -- "dry trumpet?" -- or if not, well, then don't try it.

Need your expert advice on the fish: can you put the fillets in the pan frozen, and just cook them, say, a minute more? Or should you thaw them first, and if so, how to best do that quickly without turning everything into mush.

After the fugitive ferritin.

Thankew.

Not iron-y challenged, but (Tagline)
