Mom Says No Veggies ….No Pie
The fall market season is here. Many of the local growers have had a bumper year with super weather conditions. There is no excuse for not having a healthy supply of greens and fresh organic vegetables on hand. Even the big grocery stores are well stalked with local produce…local being at least Canadian , if not Maritime grown. If you haven’t become a real fan of fresh grown produce yet, this is definitely the time to give it a try and maybe start building a habit around live local food as opposed to canned or frozen. It’s a great health habit to develop. The few minutes it takes to clean up and prepare some greens, beans, corn or even something as exotic as leeks can give you a ton of immune system building antioxidants. Doing it with your own two hands builds confidence to make other healthy decisions that may be long overdue. It’s not New Years resolution time but it can be the time of year to follow the flow of dramatic changes in the season with some life enhancing health goals of your own. The satisfaction of a meal built from scratch will go a long way to get you started. Digby Cafe dot CA, the flyer, is always open to your two cents worth on any subject send to digbycafe@gmail.com

Digby Entrepreneur
When it comes to natural, alternate health issues in Digby, there is one person that got the ball rolling many years ago. Long before it was popular or trendy to take Echinacea and garlic supplements for your cold there was a Nella Pidutti. From her healthfood store, diagnostic clinc, massage service and office on Water street, downtown Digby, Nella began building her entrepreneurial empire. Behind the belief in alternate health remedies there was a strong business mind that could see a blossoming future in the growing self-care industry. It was a business model, built around and stoked by the Baby Boomers, who were darned if they were going to feel old, look old or even grow old like their parents did. Fast Forward…Today. From her office complex, Solas Integrated Health Centre at Unit 2 21 Warwick St. Digby, she provides professional care in more than 10 fields, including massage, reiki, nutritional supplements, bio energetic testing, immune therapy and skin care. If there’s an ache, pain or wrinkle, Solas Health has a solution. (gramma) Nell has published a book, distributes a newsletter and recorded a CD of her own music; always a few large steps ahead of things, and like a root growing underground, you never know where or when she will spring up. Running for Premier or Prime Minister???? We’ll see. But more than likely, you will wake up some day and she’ll already be there.

“Lemons” The Bright Side!
Lemon juice has long been on the list of people looking for a better bang for their antioxidant buck. But how can you really get your moneys worth? How can you use the whole lemon without waste? Simple.. place the washed lemon in the freezer. Once the lemon is frozen, get your grater, and shred the whole lemon . Good on everything. Lemon peels contain as much as 5 to 10 times more vitamins than juice, very helpful in removing harmful toxins from the body. Lemon (Citrus), as an extract is a miraculous product that has been shown in clinical trials to kill cancer cells. The compounds in lemons slows the growth of tumours similar to Chemo drugs. It’s also known as an anti microbial that fights bacteria infections and fungi, effective against internal parasites and worms. It regulates blood pressure and is an antidepressant, combating stress and nervous disorders. Who wouldn’t want to use such a handy, tasty, power-house of a cure-all? Just grate it on food every day and enjoy the natural, live food way, to added health. Start now, just in time for winter immune system building.
P.S. Lemons are food and not recommended for self treatment of cancer. What is recommended is any study on the healing power of a conscientious
life-style and the curative power of common sense.

With his combination of green houses and raised beds he keeps a jump on the weather and the seasons. More and more people are appreciating and starting to understand the health benefits of local fresh grown produce. It tastes good too. You can get his assortment of vegetables and sprouts at Grandma’s Place in Bear River and The Annapolis Farmers Market, in season. From what I understand, he will be gearing up to grow all year round, so don’t worry about a winter supply. In this survival mode atmosphere that continues to build around the world, you can be sure that Neil and his Sissiboo Organics will be well ahead of the “grow yer own” curve.

Betty Blue Refit
40 Years ago I bought a powder-blue Raleigh “Record” Bicycle. She has been a dependable travel mate over the years, through the streets of Halifax, Toronto, Sydney and New Orleans. Now, as I enjoy coasting along tree lined roads and getting some heart pumping cardio up Bear River hills I can only be thankful for this simple, inexpensive mode of transportation. The long story of how she was stolen twice and found again is too big for this little flyer. However, I must say, regarding my bike, I’m happy to have met the folks at Tide Cycles, the bicycle refurbishing shop in Bear River. They may not appreciate me calling them “salt of the earth” type people, but to me, they really are. Besides doing an awesome job getting my wobbly old bike running smooth and true again, their shop and the two of them, Dylan and Danielle, just give you a sense that everything is going to be OK. I’m glad they’re here and know that I speak for many others in thanking them for picking our town to settle in. Their shop is at the Oakdene Centre, not hard to find.

Travels With Charley
Dog’s Remember
This month under Dog Story we combine dogs and books. What better place to start than John Steinbeck’s classic “Travels with Charley”.
Charley is Steinbeck’s full size poodle that accompanied him around the US in a camper truck. The journey became a book and the book
became a classic. This trusty companion eased Mr Steinbeck’s passage down the highways and back roads of America in the early sixties. They both experienced the people, countryside and events of three months together. Charley, being a dog, did his duty as guardian and friend to the writer in search of “America”. Needless to say, and thankfully so, there was no final conclusion to the tale. But, in the telling, a wonderful description of a Dog and his Human, roaming and sniffing things out together, drawing their own conclusions. Charleys’ stowed away in a dog’s memory and John’s, scribbled down for all to enjoy. In my case, recently, for the second time in 45 years. It brings a tear to my eye sometimes, when a book gives an uplifting or revelatory flash in just a few sentences or short passage. How amazing is this? No 10 million dollar blockbuster movie, No 10 part TV series. It’s a few words on a page, delivered through my own eyes at the kitchen table while enjoying a Sissiboo coffee. I don’t remember if I shed a tear the first time around or not..but for sure, Charley would.
