Took a day trip to Penzey’s Spices in Evanston IL this week to pick up my order of Penzey’s spices: Justice, Pasta Sprinkle, and Mural of Flavor. (They emailed me a sale offer that included a box of the three spices). All are salt free. I also bought Berebere seasoning and Vanilla Sugar. They also included bumper stickers to give away encouraging people to vote.

Today I made spaghetti using Justice, Pasta Sprinkle, and Mural of Flavor. I put a little Berebere in too. Yum 😋!

The spaghetti was also nutritious because I used lots veggies (mushrooms, spinach and carrots) that were in danger of going bad. Of course I included the regulars: ground beef, onions, fresh garlic, and bell pepper.

The spices really amped up the dish. I’ll be going back to Penzeys.

He’s a VERY lucky man.

Kudos for displaying support Mayor Lightfoot.

Published in JAMA Internal Medicine, the research questions the efficacy of statins when prescribed with the aim of lowering LDL-C and therefore reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Previous research has suggested that using statins to lower LDL-C positively affects health outcomes, and this is reflected in the various iterations of expert guidelines for the prevention of CVD. Statins are now commonly prescribed by doctors, with one third of Irish adults over the age of 50 taking statins, according to previous research.

The new findings contradict this theory, finding that this relationship was not as strong as previously thought.Instead, the research demonstrates that lowering LDL-C using statins had an inconsistent and inconclusive impact on CVD outcomes such as myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and all-cause mortality. In addition, it indicates that the overall benefit of taking statins may be small and will vary depending on an individual’s personal risk factors.

The researchers go on to suggest that this updated information should be communicated to patients through informed clinical decision-making and updated clinical guidelines and policy.

CNN) Bobbie and Bill Kilberg were expecting a few dozen people for their fundraiser Monday for GOP Rep. Liz Cheney, an intimate cocktail party they were planning at their home in McLean, Virginia.

But in the weeks since the Republican National Committee voted to censure Cheney for her involvement in the ongoing House select committee investigation of the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol, the couple was flooded with requests to come and meet the congresswoman and the event's special guest, Utah GOP Sen. Mitt Romney.

So many people RSVP'd yes that Monday's event was moved to another, larger venue. The Kilbergs finally had to cap the list of co-hosts when it hit 75.

But she sat with him 4 years while he tore the country apart.

Mixed feelings because it’s also a TFG-connected issue and the pressure to prosecute him came because he insulted right wingers.
