Coconuts vary in how much 'meat' they have in them, but you'll probably need around 6 to get 2 cups of coconut meat. That's just a guess though. The topping is very dense because it is juiced mature coconut which has a completely different texture. Once the juice is chilled, it sort o...
These bottles are ca-yewwt! Love the way they look in the fridge. I’m ALL for using glass whenever possible! I love filling up my own spring water too, which i currently use 6 gallon hard plastic jugs to do. I wish glass was an option but i doubt i’d be able to lift it when full at 6 ...

This is not one of my typical nice and easy recipes, but it’s so delicious that I couldn’t help myself and spend half of my day in the kitchen trying to recreate something I ate a couple of days ago. To be more precise, these should be the infamous mini bites with cashew, vegetables a...

In the Central North Pacific, 90% of Laysan Albatross chick carcasses and regurgitated stomach contents contain these toxic plastics. I’m no scientist, but I know we’re not supposed to eat plastic. And I know for sure that we’re not supposed to feed it to the rest of the planet either...
There is something terribly wrong with Cameron Diaz. It’s as though she missed the memo about being a global star—the highest-earning actress in Hollywood, thanks largely to some nimble voice work as the ogress Fiona in the Shrek franchise. At her level of influence and wealth, Diaz, ...
Day 6: Fell asleep pretty well last night and woke up at noon. Felt a little anxiety, laying thereso much work to do on my books. Decided to get out of bed and start my day, instead of freaking myself out. Thought of an observation I had about myself and about other people throughout ...
Water. While over one billion people in the developing world don’t have access to the clean sort for drinking, here in the West, we take it for granted. We leave our sprinklers on timers and end up watering our lawns on drizzly mornings; we obsess about which bottled water is currentl...
Edun, the for profit / charity African Fashion house started by Bono and his wife Ali Hewson, has become Fashion Brand Africa. What do I mean by that. I have no idea. Maybe it just that the company not only manufactures the clothing line in Africa and gives money to African causes, it...
I am in the process of deciding on the look and feel of a documentary I am making. I have been spending countless hours researching and watching anything that might inspire me. Anything that might help me create a stunning dramatic film. Well to my surprise, I just stumbled upon somet...
Blueberries – nature’s candy and nature’s medicine, packed with antioxidants, fiber, and vitamin C. I just happen to live in blueberry country. It’s one of the few perks of living in the north. Every year I battle the bears out in the old logging roads to pick pails and pails of berri...

The green facade of the house is a ‘living facade’ , changing the image of the building over time and giving space to birds and insects, creating a new urban ecosystem.The house uses large windows to capture sunlight to heat up the collective spaces in winter, and uses the ‘natural cu...
Anyway, I managed to pull a couple of cracker variations (will share my most favorite one soon) and some desserts. I’m a true believer that you eat with your eyes wide open, so when I see something beautiful I got inspired. This time my inspiration were these cute little raw fruit pap...
In a high-speed blender, blend the water and cashews until completely smooth. As long as it’s blended completely smooth, you won’t need to strain it. However, if your blender is not all that powerful, strain the cashew milk so that you don’t have any gritty bits left in the ‘milk’. Ad...

“This was certainly a new concept for me. A sweet tropical kind of “sushi”. Rice made out of macadamia nuts, and topped with delicious fresh fruits and a fruit dipping sauce. No nori, no soy sauce, no real rice and certainly nothing fishy here. It was a refreshing twist on sushi thoug...

I’ve decided that it’s time for a few recipes. I’ve been sitting on these for a while now. In fact, I made the pudding in the summer, as you’ll see by the green plants in the background of the picture – the ground is now covered in snow. The second recipe is a wintery ice cream. It’s ...
i am so grateful that i learned how to make nut milks years ago! so easy. If you have a really good blender like vitamix or blendtec, a nylon mesh bag, and a mason jar with a lid you can whip up a nut milk in mere seconds and store it in the fridge for the week. I put a big pinch of h...
My Monkie loves his bananas. He practically eats one everyday. First thing in the morning, usually for his breakfast, along side his precious espresso. I know, not the best way to start the day. But, you see, Monkie immediately gets up and starts to work. Breakfast is not the first th...

The only thing that wasn’t creating any heat was a classic Leccese dish. It’s basically a bread salad with fresh vegetables. The difference is that they use a local dense hard bread to do it called, Frise Integrali. It’s cooked like a biscotti so it’s very hard and the only way they e...
