Its Beethoven's birthday. The Moonlight sonata just played on the radio. I've kept indoors, nattering away at concocting a lentil based soup. And then I realized we were low on bread. A sheet of bread rolls bake now. Our resident mini bobcat Saia friendled up enough to snatch a piece of turkey from me. I chopped some into the lentil soup then tossed a piece to her. Maybe this time next year she will let me pick her up? Mr. B came onto the scene about the time the piano came into the world. Music and melody even as his hearing slid South. Poor Mr. B.

@bellestarr Hubby went to a naturopath this afternoon. He needs to increase his iron intake a lot and she says that iron tabs are not good enough. So eat liver twice a week. Then I looked up lentils and found they have quite a nice amount of iron in them, too.

@sallypup I guess you can find a way to combine them and spinach is also good I think.

@BelleStarr A vegetarian friend said that the iron would be absorbed better if it was paired with vinegar. Hubby likes vinegar so that's a win. Maybe apple cider vinegar?
