Schoolly D eats better than you

What he says about the turmeric and lemon is no joke.


I try to have turmeric a few times a week, but it's a strong flavour, so meal-wise, it can be come too much of the same thing.





Hmmm, I might have to try to have turmeric and lemon water daily myself. As far as the other ingredients go, I don't need it sweetened or the kick-start.





Thank You Schoolly D!!
 
man, smoke some kill was some ill shit man...at least once i week i rock that album...





schoolly aint no joke! lol
 
i heard the other night the public enemy tour bus tried to turn into schooly's treacherous driveway and had to be helped out by local police. thats kind of amazing
 
That turmeric tea totally grabbed my attention too.





Anyway, question, I just have the old turmeric bottle in the spice rack. But I see the fresh roots in the store.





I always cook with fresh ginger. I wonder, is using the fresh turmeric similarly superior? Or does it not matter?





Anyone here use fresh turmeric?
 
I rarely see turmeric root, but would definitely use it over the powder - fresh is always best!


I grew up with the powder, not the root.





I think ginger powder is kinda gross - never use it. Same thing with garlic powder.





I used to cook ginger root but found the flavour never came through properly, so now I grate it 'raw' into/on top of the dish once it's done.
 
If you wouldve told me 25 years ago that Schooly D would be doing Yoga and drinking Tumeric tea. I wouldve smacked you in your mouf. Oh well. Good for him.
 
tumeric in rice,noodles or couscous is a way to use a lot without tasting it a lot
 
Soup as well.


If I'm using berbere mixture, which nothing can overpower lol, I go heavy on turmeric.
 
I was negotiating some contracts, it wasn???t going quickly enough and it got me feeling kind of down. I wanted some good comfort food. So for dinner I cooked herb-roasted chicken with cornbread stuffing. It???s an ongoing family favorite. Everybody in my family makes, but we all make it differently. To go with it, I made broccoli, sweet potatoes with marshmallows, arugula, beet and French bean salad with Gorgonzola. I drank two glasses Chardonnay.




Now this - this is called aging with grace.

THE END OF THE HIP-HOP LIFESTYLE: I haven???t lived the hip-hop lifestyle since Jennifer kicked the 2 Live Crew out. That was a classic moment: The 2 Live Crew was in town and they were going to come over after the concert. And they showed up in this tour bus full of chicks and hookers and they kicked the door in. These chicks were everywhere like monkeys swinging off the rafters. This was when Jordan was one-and-a-half years old, and all of a sudden there was a slam and Jennifer comes out steaming and she???s just yelling, ???Out! Out! Out!??? I was like, ???You can???t kick out the 2 Live Crew.??? She said, ???Oh yes I can.??? And I think that was it. The hip-hop lifestyle???they packed it up and said, ???We???re going to take this. You???re hip-hop card???s revoked.??? I think people still laugh about that.




:LE FACEMELT:
 
This dude lives how I aspire to live. Don't know if I have the willpower to eat that well, but that house, that furniture, that look....So goddamn fresh.





Plus his wife looks fly!
 
Reading that and looking those pics put a grin on my face like you wouldn't believe. Major props to Schooly for winning so big in life. He is still the man.
 
I eat to live, and don't live to eat so I can't included the vanity reason. But I do enjoy cooking with my friends, who I worry sometimes dont eat enough.





This afternoon I will add some tumeric to my rice and veggies. And now that I'm thinking about it, I should pick up a small piece or ginger and plant it. See if I can grow some right here, real quick, yeah.





Ps, Organic oats were on sale at the store in the bulk section. With a little soy milk and umm, ah, that some good stuff right there. :)





Harley, Pizza, and I are about to have breakfast.
