Thoka and I weeded the comfrey bed, of the comfrey, today. He helped by terrifying me with his digging skills. I think I am going to be using the NO word loudly and frequently when I'm trying to plant in the spring.
Blogger has made changes to the editor, and (also in the range of terrifying) --- I like it!
Also in the way of news - I've been worried about my health for a few years now. Long and short of it is that the Doc says I need to lose weight. More specifically, I need to exercise. I'm not good with that.
I mean, I'm not good at it. I make a lot of excuses. Anyhoo..... new puppy. New leaf to turn over?
Thoka is definitely a purebred mutt, but there's a lot of Australian Cattle Dog in him. This breed needs a lot of exercise.
I need to keep a fitness and nutrition journal. And frankly, the easiest way for me to do that is to blog about it. So.... dear readers, I'll be posting more often, but you may find the content more boring.
Today I walked approximately 3.8 km. And well.... ate 96% percent of my daily recommended intake of sodium at lunch alone. I looked up the nutritional info after I ate the sandwich.
I'll try to do a picture a week, just to keep it entertaining.
Oh, and by the by, I went to the Kitchener Knitters' Fair on saturday and tried out a few spinning wheels. I'm circling around to making a decision. Soon.

and what *IS* a daily recommended intake of sodium? I have absolutely no idea.
v
Google it. :)
•1,500 mg for people aged 9 to 50
•1,300 mg for adults aged 51 to 70
from the Government of Canada website

Most foodstuffs sold in Canada has % values (probably based on the 9 - 50 years) on every package.
Tim Hortons and MacDonalds both have online nutritional charts.
Probably most others do as well. I've looked at those two in the past.
