August
29 - Lynn brought back some mangosteen fruit from Davao. For
those of you not familiar, mangosteen is heralded as one of the
super
anti-oxidants/anti-Inflammatory natural food products in the World.
In fact numerous companies in America have sprouted up to specifically
market Mangosteen by way of a juice that has a combination of other
juice and the fruit of the Mangosteen. Generally the concentration
of magosteen in these bottles of juice are very little amounting
to perhaps as little as 1.5 grams per serving and sell for as much
as $51.00 per bottle. Frankly, this is nuts when you consider how
much the stuff costs. In fact it would be cheaper for someone to
come over here and blend it into paste and then bring the highly
concentrated mixture back home.

September
1 - Today is Lynn's 37th birthday and she is blissfully
mid-way through her 4th month. We decided to have a simple lunch
with a few of her closer friends. I feel so stupid that I didn't
get a picture of all the food before it was eaten. I do however,
have a shot of the pig before and after.
