I raised the question about the Mongolian diet. In my last blog I asked
what exactly is the carbohydrate? I would seem that rice is not it after all. My source
tells me that there are no carbohydrates. Maybe it is like an Inuit thing with
seals. Yak meat has the fat the body needs. I am told the diet appears to
be based around the Yak and cheese. Hmm. So there you have it. Grateful I do not
have milk yaks or eat them, I have been busy sourcing what is locally grown and
fortunately for me there are strawberries, radishes, wonderful beets, and all kinds of
greens, to bring home. I am probably happy about not having to live on the
steppes of Mongolia.
Here on the island where I live the wild roses are blooming, I am making jelly, the frogs are singing, the weeds are proliferating in the garden, and the skies are clear. The blues skies and seeing stars is always encouraging.

“We are the stars which sing,
We sing with our light;
We are the birds of fire,
We fly over the sky.
Our light is a voice:
We make a road
For the spirit to pass over."
