Never heard of turkey rhubarb or cascara so no help there. But I do remember crawfish spinach bowls! Oh yum! I so miss crawfish. I don't buy the imported junk here but I made shrimp bowls with the same recipe. Used the frozen bread dough.
I agree about alcohol adding calories! Rats! The only person my BF still talks to down south is a crawfish-erman. That is hard work! You might be eating mudbugs he caught. We're in a position to tell him about the water levels he can expect because we're near the top of the Mississippi River. BTW - the river's rising! Here's a pic of me walking across the Mississippi River in Minnesota:

It is indeed the Mississippi! Below is a pic of Lake Itasca in MN, the lake from which the river forms. Where I walked across is just a few feet from the rock dam. The river gets even narrower but deeper just beyond this area. This is all a big state park.
So, I'm one of few people who can say they lived where the river was a mile wide, and also walked across the headlands!

After sleeping in until 10am I got up. Hubby left early this am to help out with a jazz competition. Having packed my gym bag last night I was already to go this morning. So went to the gym and only did 30 minutes total instead of 35. I had only eaten a yogurt and was feeling weak. I ate a good lunch of a hamburger pattie with cheese and tomatoes and a big bowl of broccoli and some ranch dressing. Home by 1 pm.
Hubby called he would not be home until 2 so I made several work phone calls until he came home. We then went to the festival. Listened to some great music. Ate the crawfish and spinach bread bowl, just did not eat the bread, they could not just let me have a bowl of the stuff. Anyway it was delicious! Later on I had another chicken on a stick kebob. That was good. The festival is always fun to people watch. It is supposed to rain tomorrow, don't know if we will go or not. I am tired, think we will watch an episode of downton abbey! Remained alcohol free but had some really strong urges today. bizi

I had the best dinner tonight.
WE ate at Jason's deli. They have a wonderful salad bar. I had: spinach, sweet red peppers, artichoke hearts, tomatoes, broccoli, sesame seeds, Balsamic vinegar and olive oil, and a couple of tablespoons of humus along with 2 hard boiled eggs on the side. I also had a cup of chicken chili which was very good. Great dinner and so healthy! bizi

up t0 150 this am.
I am very discouraged this morning. The scale was up to where I was two weeks ago. every day it seemed this week to go up a pound. I know that I over indulged at the festival but not that much. I wonder if something else is going on. I have been trying to eat healthy, and not obsess over calorie counting. But maybe I am eating more than I thought. Need to really pay attention to what I am eating and snacking on. I was only snacking on almonds and pecans, I know they are high calorie dense so maybe that is the reason. I have remained alcohol free this month for the weight loss promises that I made myself. But that has not happened like I like.any way I guess 6 pounds loss since march 19th is better than a gain. I looked back at my records, cards that I have recorded my weights and measurements from years ago over time. My measurements are all up alot and I am up 25 pounds since 12-10. very depressing. I am discouraged today. bizi

Happy cinco de mayo!
Jeff and I just got back from celebrating, drinks and dinner out. I had bad drinks and food from one restaurant and good drinks and I ate a desert, too many chips and salsa at the other place. After 3 days of drinking I am ready to stop drinking again. I feel like it is all or nothing, and when I drink my diet goes out the window. So it's time to get on that horse again. WE are getting ready to watch the movie Argo. Have you seen it? We had a great day today. Ate a good breakfast at the waffle house, fiesta omelet with ham and cheese and jalapenos. Then we went to the zoo where it was absolutely crazy long lines to just get into the zoo to park. When we finally got in we asked if there was something special going on and there was. They have a new female giraffe in and today they were getting married! There was a brass quintet playing and then kareoke....Silly! It was insanely busy! WE learned later that there was a gift registry!!!!! It was beautiful today just cool enough to wear a jacket due to the wind. All of the animals were active, it was fun. Looking forward to the movie, Argo. Have a great week. bizi

Did you enjoy Argo? My BF and I saw it and I liked it. Wish my Father had lived to see it. He was in Iran from '75 to '79; got out just before the hostage crisis.
Glad you enjoyed the zoo! I love a good zoo day!

Yes I loved the movie and was very suspenseful, I did not know the ending ahead of time nor the history.
Probably the best movie I have ever seen. What a wonderful true story! bizi
