A similar childhood for me. I lived in an unincorporated small town just northeast of Denver. Dirt road out front and a big piece of entertainment was the once a month drive by of the road grader. He would go up one side of the road, then about an hour later he'd come back down the other side. We walked to school, of course, which was about a mile away. We went barefoot in the fall (spent the summer always barefoot) and many of the other kids did as well. Money had nothing to do with it, it was just what all of us did. It sounds very Tom Sawyer today.

I don't think cholesterol had been invented back then. LOL

I still cook with lard. I think cholesterol problems are a result of genetics or being a sedentary lard ass. If you are going to sit in a chair all day your going to likely be overweight and have blood problems even if you eat nothing but granola. Also I think your body can break down natural products versus man made. This is the reason I never switched from butter which I now understand is healthier for you then margarine.

Work out and eat what you want within caloric limits and usually there won't be any blood problems.

This is the Jeff theory by the way but it's the way I'm going about it:)

Suma, did you get that soft boiled egg on whole wheat toast yesterday? I did and it was just as great as I expected. I reminded myself of a little gadget I have that will let me soft poach an egg in the microwave. Takes only 18 seconds on high and it comes out just right. I do that sometimes instead of soft boiling. It goes on the toast the same way.
