A Prize and A Trip

I am so happy to write that I won Patti Bourne's giveaway on her redesigned blog bliss fruit! Patti's blog used to be called "Welcome to My Universe", and she has given it a fresh new look. The prize was a beautiful painting she did that she sent to me here in Washington state, all the way from Australia.

Here is a video showing it off (1:34 minutes):




Thank you so much, Patti!


I am going on vacation tomorrow to Maui, again. I just decided at the last minute not to take my computer after all. So I will be out of touch for a while. I will miss all of you....

I may show up on Twitter and Facebook, so those of you who know me there, I'll see you soon.

Much love to all,

Quick Health Note: Take Probiotics With Antibiotics

Now there are good reasons to take probiotics with antibiotics, discussed in this article in The Health Insider. I take probiotics every day, but never with antibiotics, thinking that the antibiotics would kill off all the probiotics. No, they still help, apparently.

Just thought I'd share this little tidbit with you. It's a bit off the beaten path for happyluau, but not for me personally. I have a huge interest in alternative health, am a foodie, have been a raw foodist, and do my best now to follow clean and healthy and enjoyable eating!

Facebook Privacy

Here is a very useful article for those of you who are on Facebook, but who know little about Facebook privacy. If you aren't on Facebook yet, but are considering being there, check it out as well. I love Facebook---a lot! but it is important to be aware of the risks and precautions to take. If you don't have time to read a whole book or even a book chapter, spend a few minutes reading this.
