I have a mortar and pestle. I use flax in breads-loaf bread, muffins,
etc. In addition to adding those Omega fatty acids, I believe it helps
my concentration and focus. I have a mason jar full of them on the
kitchen counter. I will try grinding them. Eggs...they are good on
eggs? What veggies?

not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius
will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the
world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone
are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve
the problems of the human race"
