cooking the cold away (figuratively and literally)

I discovered a very delicious recipe for a RAW Japanese style soup. This was an awesome meal that gave me great benefits without all the carbs and depleted nutrients!



OK! so I might be a good girl when it comes to the actual meal (see above picture) but I cant help the fact that I just happen to have a really big sweet tooth (see picture below)... So I went all out and made my all famous chocolate chip cookies with my  new favorite cookie ingredient, DRIED LAVENDER BUDS!!!! I promise you, you try this once, and you will be hooked forever....I am fully aware now that when, G-d willing sooner then later, I actually have a  house to call my own, I will have to have a large lavender patch out front so that I can have a nice stock of dried buds to last me each year for my never ending batches of cookies....and maybe some fresh lavender tea....or you know, all the other various things one may want to do with lavender, like make soap...or essential oil.....or....well....you probably get the picture!


I did mention that I have a REALLY BIG sweet tooth right? Good. Lemon bars =YUM!! These were full of organic fresh squeezed lemon juice and the rinds of those very same lemons. They had such a fabulous sweet/tart quality going on that I cant even describe how good they were...lets just say that between me, my roomates and my friends, the pan was empty pretty fast ! (There are three new lemons sitting in my fruit basket waiting to be turned into this very same creation sometime soon....)
