2. Water, but I can't have any after midnight.

Am getting an endoscopy tomorrow, to see if they can figure out what's causing my anemia.

4. Doesn't sound like fun. Good luck. Hope it is something

a change in diet can fix.

[Wicked Blue]

5. Thank you

The last bout of anemia, six years ago, was caused by an esophageal ulcer.

6. Darn. Best wishes.

17. Blessings your way , Wicked Blue.

18. Thanks, deb! It went very well.

No ulcer, fortunately! But no sign of what's causing the anemia.
The doctor wants to do a test that involves swallowing a pill to check the small intestine. The pill contains a camera and a light. It sounds really interesting.

A rum and diet while I watch world reactions to Davos.

7. I Love Tomato, V-8, Spicy Anything Tomato (All Preferably w Hot Peppers and Gin!), But

Despite my love of clams, the clamato is not it.

8. I had a virgin Caesar or two when i was out to dinner.

I don't drink alcohol. I enjoyed it very much. I remembered I had bought some Clamato ages ago. It had been sitting there for months unopened. I looked at the best before date and it was Feb. 2026. So imbibing it I have been.

9. Same As You!

I go through a couple 48 ounce bottles each week.
I have some over ice every night.
I like putting a little SeasonAll in it, too. And, if I have an extra half lime, I'll squeeze it into the bottle.

10. My usual. Pinot Grigio, a half glass with my dinner tonight at Ashlar Village, our retirement community.

I like it a lot. The servers here know me now and often remember my order!

11. You guys!!! - it has high fructose corn syrup, red food dye, msg and a gazillion Gm's of salt

(Low sodium V8 a healthier choice)

What is Clamato juice actually made of?

“The label on a bottle of Clamato Original typically lists the following ingredients, in order of quantity:

Water
Tomato Concentrate
High Fructose Corn Syrup
Monosodium Glutamate (MSG)
Salt
Citric Acid
Spices
Onion and Garlic Powder
Ascorbic Acid (to maintain color)
Dried Clam Broth
Vinegar
Natural Flavors
Red 40 (artificial color)
The presence of High Fructose Corn Syrup, MSG, and artificial coloring (Red 40) confirms its status as a highly processed beverage. MSG is a flavor enhancer that gives Clamato its savory, umami kick but can be a concern for individuals sensitive to it”

12. I'll go easy on the Clamato then. Darn!!!

[dlbell]

20. I will check out those ingredients

Don’t have a Mott’s bottle here but I’ll check to see if the Canadian version has the same ingredients.

13. Chamomile tea - for now.

Later on when I'm reading before bed-time, it'll be my customary (habitual, lol) glass of Sauvginon Blanc.

19. Clamato juice is awesome

Regular tomato juice is so bland compared to Clamato.

You can buy it in almost every grocery store in Canada and it’s always I puzzled me why more American don’t ask for a Bloody Caesar instead of a Bloody Mary. A well made Caesar is heavenly to drink.

Recipe: Clamato juice, vodka, dash of Worchestershire, dash of hot sauce and a garnishment such as olives, an asparagus spear, celery or, as I once had, a couple of miniature egg&biscuit sandwiches. (It was a special brunch that day. )
Optional - rim of the glass is dipped in celery salt.

21. I can't drink alcohol but I'm with you on a caesar.

Love my clamato juice. Wish it was healthier.
