Things were melting away yesterday again and then we had a snow storm AGAIN! How funny! I finally started using my regular boots and not my snow boots when the snow came back. (Never had I had such a need for so many utilitarian shoes before!) 
I hope you are all doing very well. Things are still as busy as ever here.

Here's the recap of things in the past week or two:• At our Raw Food Workshop in March, we had lots of fun making 3 kinds of breakfasts. It's always so much fun doing these workshops. We started talking about kim chi for some reason and one of the women there makes it! A couple of us said we'd love to get together to have a kim chi making party and well, WE DID this week! Oh how fun it was and so easy too! I'm so stoked to finally make this. Of course I have a book in my cupboard on the subject but I'm like everyone else in the world and I need to be shown how to make wild and crazy food. Once I see it, I can do it. What a hoot we had!

• I did a couple recipes with the K/1 class at my kids school this past week. That was also fun to see kids very unsure about trying SUNFLOWER MILK and watching some of the pickier ones try it and like it. Some didn't like it (until I turned it into chocolate milk) and that's totally ok. At least they tried it. The 1st grade teacher said sometimes you need to introduce a food 17 times before a child will feel comfortable enough to try it. I said the same could be said for some adults! ;-)

• I made deliveries this week to Sweet Clover Market, Hunger Mountain Coop, City Market and Healthy Living. All the stores are carrying the Not Tuna and the Chick-UN Salad (which is new) - Healthy Living is also carrying the Eggless Egg Salad as well. We'll do the chilli and the zucchini pasta again, I promise. I'll also be doing some dehydrated stuff I think. I'll let you know when I'll be sampling out the god and goddess butter. It's really dreamy.

Here's some more wonderful feedback on the goddess butter: "Your goddess butter is the only thing that's kept me out of the candy jar at work these past two weeks. For 2 years straight (since I started the job), I was unable to resist the pull of chocolate calling to me from the office candy bin. Every day I would indulge and every day I'd regret it. Now for the first time, I have a tasty substitute that doesn't make my heart beat fast or make me feel sick afterwards. Thank you for giving us good alternatives!"

Hey THANKS! and You're Welcome! :-D

"Add ground sesame seeds, water, sweetener, vanilla and cinnamon to blender and blend well. Pour contents of blender into strainer over bowl. Add 1/8 cup Chia Seeds and stir. Put in fridge and take it out to stir every 10 minutes or so until the Chia Seeds have finished releasing their yummy gooey goodness. It shouldn’t take longer than 1/2 an hour to be fully ready to eat.

"You could use any kind of nut milk really, I just really like sesame seed milk and so does my toddler – she gobbled it up and asked for more!"

Let me know if you try this recipe!
