Something Delicious

[cinnamongrrl]

My employer is vegan and had me whip up this nummy pudding for him:

1 can coconut milk (we used Trader Joe's)

1/3 c chia seeds

1/2 c carob chips (or chocolate)

Tbs honey

Tbs vanilla (or you can use a shot of brandy if you like, I used Kahula)

shredded coconut to taste

Heat coconut milk slowly stirring occasionally. Add chocolate or carob chips and stir till melted in. Add chia seeds, vanilla and honey. Stir until it thickens. Add in coconut flakes. Let cool...

The chia seeds are what thicken the pudding. You cant taste them but the texture of them is interesting. I put the mixture in a chocolate pie crust fro Thanksgiving dessert. Enjoy

Yay Welcome back! We missed you!

How was your holiday? Nice recipe, I can think of someone that is going to love that. Need to copy this one and add it to my files.

I had to turn the crockpot off. EVERY time I walked into or through the kitchen, I would be greeted with an intense fragrance and my stomach would clench in instant overwhelming hunger pangs--even when I walked in after a full meal to wash the dishes, instant overwhelming hunger pangs!

I drooled. It made me drool. I turned it off.

It cooled. I strained out all the chicken bones, fat, gristle, skin, meat, onions, etc. I put the strained broth on the stove with carrots, potatoes, onion, and chicken. Then I was faced with a bowl full of uncrumbly Chicken Etc.

So I put it back in the crockpot with new water and turned it back on.

What? It wasn't done yet.

OMG this made me laugh!

Cath I hope that you are writing a book because you have such a charming way with words. Perhaps you and Ursy can collaborate on something..a screenplay maybe?

The world needs more laughter, I truly believe that this is the answer to everything.

As someone who LOVES a good stock and has been known to consume a good chicken soup for a week straight, (it was that good) I can empathize!

Today I am working with a pastry chef that makes macarons that look like these. Wow. Amazing work.

I love the look of macarons! I wish I could try them, but I have developed an almond allergy. It's very sad

I have a picture of my own to share...
Tomatoes! They are growing so fast, they're bigger than m&ms now

I couldn't figure out how to upload a photo to the gallery, it's been so long. So I put it in my Evernote.

Ooooh - duh. I think I found my photo gallery. Oh well, never mind.

Wow your baby tomato's are so cute and so small : ) Awesome. They look as though they may be growing outward like the Brandywine but then again I have no idea. Just a guess. If you click on the little icon that is yellow at the top bar, you can insert a link to a photo that is hosted on another website.

You have an almond allergy? That is awful news. The macarons are so chewy and fun, maybe there is a way to make them minus the almond powder. Let me research this and get back to you.
