Update

As I Crawled The Virtual Dumpster I Call The Internet....

I should of comeback sooner. Been a while...since I posted regularly.

It's Memorial Day Weekend.

Why the Poppy symbolizes Lost Soldiers...


And another reason The Poppy is deadly in a less romantic manner...

Opium.

A tidbit I found in the Virtual Dumpster that I missed if it was in the news back in 2000...
The Taliban banned opium in 2000, leaving many farmers destitute but causing drug production to hit a historic low in 2001, when the US invaded.

As I binged NetFlix's, OZARK I did not know if it were FACT OR FICTION that heroin from poppy can be from domestically grown poppies...so had to research.


[CLICK HERE] to an article on opium growth in the USA...

[CLICK HERE]  for a recipe for pain, insomnia, and anxiety called TINCTURE OF POPPY.

The tincture uses California poppies.

One more thing I found...

COVID-19 did not STOP WAR. Libyan fighters in April 2020

Thank you Mimi! Much love your way! I am counting the days until Nov. 4th. Imagining it will be an epic change to the better. We all should be at our best during times we believe are the worst...
