To Karen: Why did the Kelp Make me Feel Like I wanted to Throw Up?

Hi Jade...Thanks for the nice compliments on the site. I appreciate kind words. :-)As far as the kelp goes...I have two thoughts. You took them on an empty stomach...or you are allergic.I personally do best with Nori sheets. It looks like I am eating carbon paper...LOL...but since they use them to wrap sushi...they are actually pretty tasty.I munch on them in the morning. But never on an empty stomach. The same thing with vitamins. However, some people are allergic.As far as Conair...I like the ones without the knobs. The knobs will actually grab the hair..in some cases...and rip it out or tear it. So no knobs are best. I have one set of brushes I am trying to offer on Hair Boutique. Keep your fingers crossed.I have noticed your posts and always enjoy them. So keep them coming Jade.Have a great weekend.Karen> Hi, Karen!> I always wanted to tell you that I love this> site. You and Jeff have made a nice place on the> Net.

I have found the following to be a tastier way to "eat" Nori.Mix in the bottom of a bowl:1 clove garlic crushed3 tablespoons of olive oil (use less and increase the lemon)1-2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice1 teaspoon of dijon mustard1-2 sheets of Nori crumbled (I wave it over a burner until it turns bright green - it only takes seconds)1/4 teaspoon of saltChop up a head of romaine lettuce and add to the above.Serve with toast.> I personally do best with Nori sheets.
