I didn’t realize I omitted any sweetener in my chai until after I shot the video. Just cause I don’t use it, i didn’t add it for you. I think you’ll be glad I didn’t. These spices are so aromatic and sweet that they will satisfy your sweet tooth, if you let them. So let […]

Our overall health and best digestion rely on healthy bacteria, so let’s stay healthy all winter long with naturally fermented pickles. We are not going to ignore those giant heavy winter root vegetables especially after carrying home 22 lbs worth in my winter CSA farm share. On my bike. In the snow! Eating seasonally and […]

I don’t care how healthy you believe your smoothie is. How many expensive, organic super foods you’ve lovingly blended with nut milks, global dried berries, hand-foraged seeds, grass fed whey products, heirloom oils and green lake-sourced powders. If its cold, thick, damp and wet then when you drink it, it’s still cold, thick, damp and […]

Once I pick up my weekly CSA farm share, I like to cook up as much of it as I can in the first day or two, and then cook the rest a few days later. I store the cooked food in glass dishes in the fridge. Having yummy food ready to eat gives me […]

In 2005 my guy and I left hectic Los Angeles for a simpler life in a sweet house near Hilo, Hawaii. Our new life was a blessing and, I believe, the blessing of our yoga teacher Sri K. Pattabhi Jois who assured us, “Don’t worry soon you will have a house.” And through a sequence […]

Dear Friends Even Kiki gets the flu! I was resting and napping with homemade veggie soup all weekend. I regret I did not make a video for you. I just was achy and as lazy as a person could be! Now I am up and about and planning…. big hugs! Here’s the Soup.. Kiki’s Flu-Away […]
