I’m now devoting a large chunk of my brain to exactly how one would create a deep-fried daiquiri ice curry ball that tasted good. I think I’m about ninety percent there; it involves Baskin Robin’s daiquiri ice ice cream, red bean paste, Penzey’s sweet curry spice mix, and the Tex-Mex techniques for fried ice cream. I think the red bean paste would actually make the consistency come out better, but I’m not sure.
Dimly, I am aware this is not what I should have taken away from the article. (Which was, in all seriousness, great- I would vastly rather have one well-prepared vegetable dish with a little olive oil and a few seasonings than any of the “fusion” gunk that throws flavors together as though blasted from a shotgun.)
great food for thought.. thanx

I love the Brain Boosting, Mood Lifting Foods article. It is such a good read with information that I would like to know. Very excited to know what is good for your brain.
I’m enjoying this web site more and more each day, I just found it about three weeks ago and it was no accident that I did find it. Great articles and a ton of trustworthy information that we all can use.
