I showed my littles how to sprout carrot tops...and now we have carrot top pesto! I'm out of Parmesan at the moment so I used some Nutritional yeast flakes (very different from baking yeast lol!), sesame seeds, garlic powder, walnuts, fresh lemon juice, dried basil and parsley, fresh spinach, olive and coconut oil, and Himalayan pink salt. I think it's delish over whole wheat noodles π

I was today years old when I discovered that calligraphy and handwriting cannot be done the same! π³π¬ I just assumed because I have nice handwriting that calligraphy was just a variation...nope, it has it's own set of strokes. So all these years I've been trying to write calligraphy the way I write handwritten cursive and wondering why it was such a struggle! It's not the tool ... it's the operat...

Morning workout... rebounding! Look at just some of the benefits!! 5 minutes 3 times a day... anyone can do that! Rebounding combines acceleration, deceleration and gravity, like a 3-horse team working together to exercise every cell in the body... triple the benefit and low impact.

Toured a commercial greenhouse business last week and an equipment auction this morning. This attachment caught my attention. It has cutting discs under the rubber flaps and rollers in the back. I assumed it was something used for grain harvesting...turns out I was right! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swather

All ready for work! I had the kitchen to myself tonight with some occasional help from the bartender serving pizza, 14 of them all in a two hour span...may not seem like a lot but we make them from scratch starting with the dough, so I mixed up 4 batches of dough during the course of the evening too. One order had 7...the oven can fit 6 if needed but the edges burn sometimes so I came up with a strategy: I prepped th...

To shower πΏ or not? Last little one finally asleep, workout program not completed and it's after 11pm...but even though I have the bed to myself like most nights, the thought of smooth legs vs prickly ones won out over exhaustion.... definitely worth it!

Orange cranberry breakfast cake using fresh ground wheat.... ππDoesn't get much better than that! Did you know that up to 90% of the nutrition in flour is lost in the first 3 days after grinding due to oxidation!? Not to mention all the nutrition and wonderful fiber removed from white flour and then the bleaching process! π¬

A flock of wild turkeys crossed the road on my way to work today. They disappeared so quick in the brush, I barely managed to capture a picture of these last three. Wondering what I do at work? Cooking and dishes π I work at a little brewery. Everything is made from scratch... Pizza dough for our flatbread pizzas: Margarita, Rueben, Bacon Cheeseburger, Cottage Bacon, Cajun are all pretty popular. Bacon mac n chee...

Got a massage tonight to work on my lower back, glad to know someone close by who's a licensed therapist! Don't put off taking care of yourself, preventing problems in the future, especially when small problems start. It takes way more time and expense, as I'm learning the hard way. A good Chiropractor, massage therapy, yoga and core exercises should get me back on track soon. π

Feeling so much better, I made it to work Saturday night and then outside Sunday to tour the farm and revel at the incredible spring migration of thousands of geese and waterfowl. Unfortunately, only a tiny fraction are visible in these clips from my phone camera. The sheep are looking good and I can't stop adoring these squishy cute puppies!!

Ginger Blueberry kombucha! So pretty π€© Can't wait to try it!!! π One bottle has whole berries and chunks of fresh ginger, the other we tossed the ginger and berries in the food processor before adding to the bottle...I'm thinking the flavor should be better.

While I was under the weather, things were still happening...I mean... brewing! Kombucha!! What shall we flavor it with? I've got blueberries and ginger for a tasty start! And aren't those bottles gorgeous!?!!! π
