Wacky Wednesday 7-17

Post by Flasher »

Hello, Cherries!

Did you know that Nutmeg is a hallucinogen?  The spice contains myristicin , a natural compound that has mind-altering effects if ingested in large doses. 

So, make sure you follow next Thanksgiving's pumpkin pie recipe exactly.  😂

 
OCD is not an adjective.  It is not a personality quirk. It is not synonymous with being organized.  It is a complex and debilitating mental health illness that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and is defined by the presence of unwanted, intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions. 💙 I am an OCD warrior and I fight for my son. 💙

Between the tryptophan from the turkey and the nutmeg from pumpkin pie, you could have crazy hallucinogenic dreams while you sleep off your thanksgiving meal.   😂

Who knew?  I sure didn't.  Apparently this is a very common "first step" for teenagers in their search to get a high.

I love fresh nutmeg you buy in sticks and then grate onto the dish you are making. I haven't used any in years since I no longer make a big Thanksgiving meal.
