Three Giant Steps to Health

Thursday, November 29th, 2007

It’s 8:45 AM. Already today, I’ve spent time praying and meditating, doing chores, exercising in the beautiful Florida morning, tending the vegetable garden and now I’ve just sat down to enjoy some liquid sunshine (aka living OJ) I just squeezed for us. Life is grand!
It was not that long ago that I felt life was a […]

Natural Pest Control

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

It is a beautiful Florida morning and I have already been out tending my small garden. We were created to be gardeners and to take dominion over the earth and everything in it. I think that’s the reason most people derive great joy from seeing things grow. There is just something uniquely special about growing […]

Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice

Tuesday, November 27th, 2007

It’s orange season in Florida again and Alan bought our first bag of oranges at Harvey’s Groves last week. Fall is probably my favorite time of year in Florida because the weather is so beautiful, the tourists have not arrived yet and we have many varieties of citrus to delight our palate.

They say wisdom comes with […]

Milk And Crackers - Making the Most Of Almond Milk Pulp

Friday, November 23rd, 2007

I had a former father-in-law who loved milk and crackers. He would crush saltine crackers into a bowl and then pour milk over them. I can’t imagine a dish that is more void of nutrition or more lackluster in presentation…
Enough nostalgia, here’s a new twist on milk and crackers. Plan to make your almond milk […]

Healthy Thanksgiving Feast

Friday, November 23rd, 2007

What a great time Alan and I had yesterday, feasting on all the lucsious living and nutritonally dense food we had prepared for Thanksgiving. We were reveling in the fact that we could have such a rich Thanksgiving Feast and know that every spoonful we consumed was actually good for us. What a novel concept!
We remembered the […]
