Cacao recipes and article, Rainforest facts and plants


Hi.

I just made it! ..it’s 15 min until tomorrow. I’m kind of amazed that I have made it here every day for the last few months. I used to only check my e-mail every few days.. and I guess that still happens sometimes.. but I always manage to get here & write something.

& now that I am working more I just may not make it here every day.. so don’t get used to it or anything.. in fact, don’t get used to anything. ; ) everything changes.. that’s life.


"There is a Light that shines beyond all things on earth, beyond us all, beyond the heavens, beyond the highest, the very highest heavens, this is the Light that shines in our heart" - Chandoyga Upanishad

Almost everyday at work Marie makes smoothies with her own recipe, which includes banana, hemp protein, tocoripherols. goji berries, cacao & sunflower sprouts (of course!)
Between these & my almost daily evening ritual lately of making a cacao, honey, almond butter & coconut blend dessert.. cacao has been a major part of my day.

I am a member of the yahoo e-group raw_cacao which recently held a recipe contest. aromatic_wings submitted lots of great recipes which I am sharing for anyone interested here: Cacao Recipes.
I hope it’s ok to pass these on & Thank you for sharing them.

I just realized that it’s 3 months today since I started writing this. Time goes by fast.. my kids are all teenagers (there’s a bunch of them hanging out behind me). & it’s all good, but wow.
