High Protein Granola Bars

These are like candy, but oh so good for you! I’ve been tweaking the recipes for a year, and this batch is by far the best! I’ll add more variations as I make them. First, about the ingredients. These are not cheap to make, but trust me, it’s worth the cost! Some of the ingredientsContinue reading “High Protein Granola Bars”

Are you throwing these away?

If you are buying organic Romaine lettuce, celery, or scallions, you have plants! I just put them in water on the counter until I’m ready to get them in the greenhouse. I read these will grow with just water, but I add half dirt, then fill with water. They will go to the garden atContinue reading “Are you throwing these away?”

Banana Oatmeal ‘Pancakes’

I’ve been talking about this with my massage clients, so I figured I’d post it. I originally made these at a camping event. We were in charge of breakfast for about 40, and had a huge pot of leftover oatmeal. I was skimming the crusty bits off the top, and my friend Nancy said, “WhyContinue reading “Banana Oatmeal ‘Pancakes’”

Recipe ~ Raspberry, Chocolate, Cheesecake Granola Bars

    I’ll make these again, and update with more pics, and measurements. For now, I can give you estimates.

What to with Kambucha that tastes like Vinegar.

Use it recipes in that call for vinegar. My Kambucha got away from me! Add Green tomatoes… I used this Green Tomato Pickle Recipe. And substituted Kambucha for Vinegar. I did not cook the tomatoes, I like them crunchy. Zesty Sprouts. And oven roasted red Cherry Tomatoes. Dressing: 1/2 Kambucha vinegar, 1/4 cup olive oil,Continue reading “What to with Kambucha that tastes like Vinegar.”

I Love Growing Sprouts!

I’m amazed at how easy it is to sprout, once you get over the initial,’ I don’t know anything about it’. I failed at my first 2 attempted, but a friend encouraged me to keep trying, and I’m so glad I did! Sprouts can contain up to 100 times more enzymes than raw fruits andContinue reading “I Love Growing Sprouts!”

Diabetes and Candida (yeast infections)

This is meant to be simple, from a diabetic, not a doctor. Diabetics do not make (type 1), or do make enough (type 2) insulin. Insulin is a hormone that takes the sugar, starches, and other food, and converts it to energy. Without insulin, a type one diabetic would starve, even if eating. The sugarContinue reading “Diabetes and Candida (yeast infections)”

Pondering Independence.

I woke up this morning pondering Independence Day, and what that means to me. Pondering what my life would feel like Independent. I’m remembering getting divorced, the second time, wondering what it would be like to be completely independent, and creating how I want to feel completely. Where do I see it most, today? 12Continue reading “Pondering Independence.”

Garden to table, just a few berries.

Can I excite you with just a few berries from the garden? First of the red, and black raspberries. The black berries will be another week or so. What do you do with just a few? I didn’t grow the Cantaloupe, or Mango. I bought them from the fruit guy at the Hadley Flea Market.Continue reading “Garden to table, just a few berries.”
