Kind of a D'uh, but might work

A friend of mine, in case you don't read comments, responded to a post a few days ago with a link to a website that somebody put together with a diet, of sorts. It's called the No S Diet. If you are interested, check it out. The link is www.nosdiet.com
You will see, upon looking at it, that it is kind of the "Diet For Dummies"....very simple, straightforward....and possibly exactly what will get me where I want to go.
It is another warm, sunny day today. Re-injured my wrist on the lovely wet ice doing papers this morning, so back into the wrist brace we go, after nearly a year's reprieve. Oh well...it seems I'm still used to it, so it's not really all that aggravating to have the brace on. It's more the pain of he injury that bothers me, and as long as the brace is on correctly, that is minimized as well. One more day on those particular routes, then a day off....then hopefully a route or two where people salt their walk like crazy...or the weather jumps up to 30C and everything liquifies and runs down the drain before Monday. Hee hee. As if.
Getting freezer packs from the butcher today, so I can feed my poor, hungry freezer. For $120, we will get 9 lbs ground beef, 5 lbs blade steak, 10 lbs pork steak, 10 lbs pork and beef sausage, 11lbs chicken legs and thighs, 5lbs chuck steak, 5 lbs beef short ribs, and 5 lbs chuck roast. This should feed us for about 3 months.

What does salt do to snow/ice that helps?
Also, wouldn't the salt build up in lawns and gardens causing plants to struggle to frow?
Wondering.

The short answer to this is that salt melts ice and snow and provides traction....and the salt I refer to is sold in grocery stores here and is a special formula that will not harm your lawn/plants.
