I love roasted sweet potato. Cold sweet potato? I thought that is why they invented microwave ovens....other than popcorn! Microwave only to reheat after roasting. Don't sacrifice a virgin yam to this death machine. Camping is just an excuse to have an open fire with potatoes and sweet  potatoes in the ashes and coals. Serve with honey butter and spoon. The higher temps of the fire is hot enough to caramelize the sugars. Now for the good news/ bad news. Sweet Potatoes are high in Iron and put it on my restricted list diet. Iron encourages gout flares. 'Nuff said. Coming up next: Sweet Potato Pie.

Health is Wasted on the Young with some exceptions

I'm at a point where I can't determine if I'm living or dying. They say we start dying at birth and I is true but I seem to judge aging by events and sometimes years. I never really decided what I wanted to be when I grew-up and that has brought me to this state of affairs. The government will still be doing the best to commit chaos to any status quo that I now cling to and my health is ever changing. I gotten my stress levels mostly under control but I still can't sleep without medication.
I need to renew my faith in something that will give my mind some kind of haven. I guess I need to have faith in myself the most. Time will tell.
