Works for me.
(Salty stuff is especially good, once one has had a drink or two.)
I hope that you and yours enjoy a very happy Thanksgiving, and many blessings for which to be grateful.
Thanks! Same to you and yours!
I’ll be seeing the family tomorrow and will see what they think of the Seven Fishes idea.
Maybe I can pawn some of the cooking off on others? ;)
Drinking hot cocoa could make you smarter — especially if it’s enriched with this

BIRMINGHAM, United Kingdom — As winter arrives, hot tea and cocoa naturally become popular drink choices with a lot of people. A new study finds drinking cocoa is not just the popular choice, it may also be the “smart” choice as well.
Researchers at the University of Birmingham say consuming flavanol-rich products, such as cocoa, increases one’s mental performance.
Flavanols are a group of molecules which occur naturally in fruits and vegetables. They’re a member of the plant flavonoid family and are common in cocoa, grapes, apples, tea, berries, and even wine. While previous studies reveal these molecules can improve brain health, the new report finds they also stimulate brain-blood oxygenation levels. The results show this actually helps people to think faster and perform cognitive challenges more efficiently.
“We used cocoa in our experiment, but flavanols are extremely common in a wide range of fruit and vegetables. By better understanding the cognitive benefits of eating these food groups, as well as the wider cardiovascular benefits, we can offer improved guidance to people about how to make the most of their dietary choices,” lead author Dr. Catarina Rendeiro says in a university release.
