I spent the day with Mardi and Woman of Many Talents, listening to one of my favourite speakers, Jessie Reimers, telling us about essential oils and recipes for natural cleaning and personal products.
I could listen to her talk for hours, because her passion for health, nutrition and natural remedies matches mine, however, she is able to express herself more eloquently and her young mind stores her facts and figures in a much more organised and efficient manner, so that she can find and share more details than my poor old brain can muster at any given time.
The fact that she is high functioning Aspergers probably helps :)
I've ordered a kit of essential oils and can't wait to receive them in the mail and begin creating concoctions, bringing forth my 'inner witch'!! So much research to do and more books to find and recipes to discover! Yet another step towards our goal of overall positive health .. physical, mental and emotional.
I'm excited that Woman of Many Talents is now coming to the Paleo Way event in Bundaberg with us at the end of this month! We now have a full car with Ms Apple coming along too. Adoring Husband won't know what to do with himself being surrounded by so many smart, witty, beautiful women!!
Tonight, I made a turkey mince meatloaf coated with sriracha sauce and for the last 15 minutes in the oven I tossed pine nuts over the top to roast. I did some more chilli veggie cakes and served dinner with a salad of lettuce, baby spinach, cucumber, tomato, avocado and pear all drizzled with balsamic vinegar.
Incredibly delicious, especially with a nice addition of chilli powder in the meatloaf and veggie cakes.
We've watched a brilliant one day cricket match between Australia and Sri Lanka in the World Cup today, switching every so often between that and various NRL football matches. The cricket match isn't finished yet and it's going to be very close.
This month's flickr challenge is 'light'. The photo has to be taken 'in' or 'of' any light except sunlight. So that means no sunrises or sunsets. It can be moonlight (even though moonlight is actually the sunlight reflecting on the moon lol), artificial light, streetlights, candle light, starlight, flash light etc.
It will be interesting to see the different ideas that everybody comes up with.
Adoring Husband arrived home safe n sound from his SES training weekend, tired and satisfied.
All is right with our world and it's back to study tomorrow.
Nite all.
