Wade German and I were talking about not being cold, and he found me a couple of links about herbal remedies for FMAO, which afflicts me every winter. These are the links he sent me.

I started thinking about how I could apply this advice. I wonder if adding a little cinnamon to my coffee would help. It might not change the flavor very much, which I am sure would be a good thing. I've had ginger tea and I don't like it. I seriously tried to get to like it, because some Korean girls gave us a whole bunch of it (a nice looking gift variety pack) as a host and hostess gift. My wife didn't like it at all, so I drank virtually all of it. I was disappointed that I couldn't enjoy it even after really giving it a fair chance to win me over. On the other hand, we love Asian food made with ginger. I've tried crystallized ginger and ginger beer and it don't care for them. My wife likes ginger every way except in tea. I used to make at least one stirfry a week. Now that I can't do the cooking we use a lot less ginger. I wonder how ginger would be in marinara sauce. On pizza. We could have ginger three or four times a week if that worked out. And I wonder what would happen if I just tried it without telling her! Now ginger candy is a possibility, and I love real gingersnaps that have real ginger in them. She used to make those. I could definitely put cayenne in marinara sauce and in pizza sauce, but it seems a shame to waste the hot peppers we grew in our garden. Would they be just as good?
No answers here. Only questions and speculation. If I try any of this stuff and seem to perceive a result I will definitely let you know.
