snowy @snowy22315 (181203) • United States 9 Nov

It seems like they are the new it food. From microdosing to help with depression, to lower blood pressure and blood sugar..mushrooms are highly touted these days. I bought some kind of spice with mushroom powder in it at the craft...

Abhijit Bangal I've heard and read from doctors and vaidyas (ayurvedic doctors) that there are health benefits of everything that grows on earth. Be it to be consumed through mouth, or be it to be applied as cream, paste or gel. So mushrooms cannot be an exception. But yes,...

Beauty Regimen.

rakski @rakski (124459) • Philippines 8 Nov

I am a simple person. I grew up with two older sisters but we were not exposed to toner, moisturizer stuff, and even makeup. I do not have a lot of some of the women do. I hate putting lotion on my skin. I live...

Abhijit Bangal The way you described your weather conditions, it's pretty much like what we have in Mumbai here. Because Mumbai is a coastal city, that's why there is this kind of weather. When there's rain, it's too too much. It rains cats and dogs. The rainy season becomes...

Abhijit Bangal I don't understand what's wrong with having a lady president? Isn't she capable enough? Or has Mr. Donald Trump won just because they again wanted a male president? I can't believe a country like the US is thinking on these terms if...

How many hours do you sleep at night?

Manuela Lopes @nela13 (58677) • Portugal 8 Nov

Today I read some news that people who sleep 9 or more hours a night are more attractive. I sleep between 6 and 8 hours, but never 9, not even on vacation! I guess I need to change this...

Abhijit Bangal This is the discussion I was looking for. And that's quite helpful. You have mentioned a few things that really match what I've also heard about. The first thing is about the number of hours of sleep. I've heard one should get at least 6-8 hours of sleep....

LindaOH @LindaOHio (179787) • United States 8 Nov

Abhijit Bangal Our near and dear ones coming home and still going down thrice in a day is something to look into. I think he still needs to be a bit stronger than what he is at the moment. I'm praying! Don't worry about this!!

Abhijit Bangal Reading about anyone's divorce is never good. That spells a lot of negative things. Two people who have vowed to stay together and then separating doesn't give good vibes. But on the other hand, if it's going to give them mental peace, then there's no point in...

Dragging

popciclecold @popciclecold (39149) • United States 7 Nov

This has been one long day, and I felt as if I weighed 400 lbs. It was just hard to get around. It would take me a few minutes to get from one room to the other. I have days like that from time to time. Seems like after a day like...

Abhijit Bangal Yes. We can have our days on and off at times. I have also experienced a few such days when my spirits are down. And it seems like I'm drained out a lot. But actually those are the days when I've worked the least. Life can be funny at times.

Abhijit Bangal To be honest, I think this kind of distraction can happen especially on a stressful day and I am not a bit surprised about this - you forgetting to add the coffee. Because I have also gone through such time and I forgot to add sugar while preparing tea. It was...

Abhijit Bangal I definitely believe in prayers. There's no doubt I'll pray for him. But it sounds so strange and hard to believe that someone who's just drinking since five years should be so weak. Weak to point of... You know what I mean. I'm saying that because I have seen...

How do you handle election night?

Amber @AmbiePam (93298) • United States 5 Nov

Abhijit Bangal Yes. Like @marguicha, I am also following the elections. When I saw in the morning it was Trump with 198 and Ms. Harris on 112. But I just checked back a couple of minutes ago and Donald Trump had reached the figure of 230. But Kamala Harris had well caught up...

Abhijit Bangal I'm 43. And as for my personal opinion, 45 seconds seemed too less. Are you sure it's just 45 seconds? I mean not anything like 1 minute and 45 seconds, or 2 minutes and 45 seconds. Just asking. By the way, you didn't mention if we merely need to stand...

Pizza, Pizza

Abhijit Bangal Pizza making is also our "hobby". It's like the thing is made in our house regularly. It's fun to eat when you are early hungry or when you haven't made it for a long time. Mouth starts watering by the very thought of pizza

Do you edit typos in MyLot posts when you catch them?

The Horse @TheHorse (219316) • Walnut Creek, California 4 Nov

I am a decent speller. But not a good speller. I also have eyes that are failing in my dotage. To compound the issue, I have words that I simply cannot remember how to spell, like "restaurant" and "kumquat." Plus my keyboard is...

Abhijit Bangal Looks like you don't use any autocorrect feature. That's why you need to go and edit the words. For example, if I'm typing "teh" it'll correct to "the" automatically. It happens with the flow. It saves time. Also, you would hardly find any mistakes in my...
