Whether you drink 4, 6, 8 or 12 glasses of water a day- we all know it’s critical to stay hydrated. And, despite the fact that i used to drink 20, 30, or 40 cups of coffee a day- that was not the way to hydrate one’s body. (I don’t drink that much coffee anymore- nor do I drink any pop.)

(Fracking comes to mind, of course.)

This blog has been gestating for a long time. Mostly because it will end up being a series of blogs- but the connection between them took a bit of doing. So, I’ve been massaging them to make the connection clearer.

When I used to travel three, four, five days a week, I always wanted to eat meat when I was home. Because I felt deprived of it when I wasn’t home. (Except in New York City- and less than ten locations in the rest of the US, it was hard to find kosher meals.)

Years ago, we were approached by one of the Port-O-Let dealers in Michigan. He had this idea he wanted us to help him develop.
