This is probably a silly question, but what is the best way to wash herbs and leafy greens?

The only instructions I see online is to rinse in water several times and soak in a tub of water until the dirt sinks.

Is that the best way? I’m just thinking of all the crawling bugs and poo and any bacteria that’s grown on it and didn’t know if just water was efficient to make it safe to eat. Or am I just being overly germaphobic?

(The only things I’ve got for sprays is Garden Safe fungicide and insecticidal soap spray)

My Shinji enjoying a strawberry. Most of the other boys are far more picky than him. Anyone else have really picky rats when it comes to stuff like that?

Contrary to popular belief, you need more than calcium to have stronk bones. Eating leafy greens for instance can increase your body's collagen production and result in stronger, more resilient bones. This is why Popeye is the stronkest boned among us.

I like to snack on leafy greens. The overall texture and taste is fine, but the iron-like aftertaste makes me gag. How can I reduce this, while still being able to eat it with bare hands?

Cruotons help, but they can be a bit noisy.

Thanks for any suggestions!

I don't understand how Christine and Robyn could buy homes in Flagstaff when their Vegas homes hadn't sold yet. Where does all this money come from? Is my timeline way off or am I misunderstanding something?

My understanding was that the money from the sale of their Vegas homes was to go into building the new homes on Coyote Creek, so why did Robyn and Christine both buy homes in Flagstaff? Christine was complaining about a double mortgage, so why do it?

A study of 13,388 women showed fruit is NOT associated with cognitive benefits. However total vegetable intake was significantly associated with brain benefits. Cruciferous vegetables and leafy greens were the most important.

Ann Neurol. 2005 May;57(5):713-20.

Fruit and vegetable consumption and cognitive decline in aging women.

Kang JH1, Ascherio A, Grodstein F.

Abstract

We prospectively examined fruit and vegetable intake in relation to cognitive function and decline among aging women. Participants were followed from in 1976 with biennial questionnaires, and food frequency questionnaires were administered in 1984, 1986, and every 4 years thereafter. From 1995 to 2001, we administered, by telephone, six cognitive tests measuring general cognition, verbal memory, category fluency, and working memory. We repeated assessments two years later for 13,388 women (>90% follow-up). We averaged dietary intakes from 1984 through the first cognitive assessment, and used linear regression to obtain multivariable-adjusted mean differences in performance and decline in performance across intake levels. Fruits were not associated with cognition or cognitive decline. However, total vegetable intake was significantly associated with less decline. Specifically, on a global score combining all tests, women in the highest quintile of cruciferous vegetables declined slower (by 0.04 unit; 95% confidence interval, 0.003, 0.07; p trend = 0.1) compared with the lowest quintile. Women consuming the most green leafy vegetables also experienced slower decline than women consuming the least amount (by 0.05 unit; 95% confidence interval, 0.02, 0.09; p trend < 0.001). These mean differences were equivalent to those observed for women about 1 to 2 years apart in age.

LPT: If someone reminds you of something but you already remembered, pretend you had forgot. Instead of saying "Yeah, I know", thank them for reminding you. This way they'll remind you of stuff more often and it may come in useful, even if you're not that forgetful.

I do this myself a lot and it often comes in useful. Telling them that you already knew will just discourage them from ever reminding you again, and then the times you actually forget, they might have remembered but not told you because they assumed you already knew. You can obviously do it in different ways, and even say you remembered, but thanks anyway.
