Ok, delicious is what my wife said, but she tends to be subjective (sometimes…)

She also said that mussels are not that good for your cholesterol, nor is too much wine…

Well, seems it’s not easy to get yourself a balanced diet, but I am working on it Meanwhile I am not taking my stupid Celebrex painkiller. I mean: why subdue your entire body when the arthritis pain is only in your pinky?
