Wally, put some Kefir in it. Improves flavour, better health. By the way, how are you coping with the shingles.

Actually, acyclovir is for a whole lot of herpes viruses, and chicken pox/shingles is one of them.

Acyclovir is used for STD viruses. Once I went to see my GP, but he was away and I got a locum. Without any examination he prescribed Acyclovir. I will not go into detail here about the problem, but like a fool I took the medication. Of course after 2 weeks there was no change, so I went back to my regular GP. After a quick examination, he was astounded at what the locum had done. With some pathology and an ultra sound, problem was solved ,all good. Sorry, nothing to do with macaroni salad.

Acyclovir is used for STD viruses. Lest anyone take this statement for straight up fact, I have to correct it. Acyclovir is not used for all STD's, only herpes related. And it is indeed used for oral herpes viruses as well.

Lucky you Snow. It is Soups and Stews down here at the moment. Salads not as enjoyable when it is 0 degrees outside. I know 0 is warm for your part of the World, you go down into the minuses.
We should be having white frosts, but it is not happening, because they say we are in the worst drought for 120 years. Just so dry, no moisture. Lawns have gone, just dust. Have not used the mower for 6 months. Really bad for the Farmers, you feel so sorry for them.

It's starting out pretty dry here this year too. It seems all around us has had some rain, but it just seems to miss us lately. We sure need some moisture!

If you have a careful look at cows and hippopotamus's and elephants you will see that they are usually pretty darn fat. The lesson is you will not lose weight if you eat grass and other salad type dishes.
