My final comments on the Palm Leaf disposable/biodegradable dishes that were sent to me by MarxFoods.? Today I made a big pot of veggie/beef soup.? This was the ultimate test for the Palm Bowls and they passed with flying colors.? They held up to hot soup better than any disposable bowl I’ve ever used.? No leakage and the bottom of the bowl actually stayed cool but the soup stayed hot. So, after all of the tests I’ve put these dishes through, I give them a thumbs up.?

EATING FRUIT This is?informative! We all think eating fruit means just buying fruit, cutting it up?and?popping it into our mouths. It’s not that?easy. It’s important to know how and? when ?to eat fruit.? What’s the correct way to eat fruit?? IT MEANS NOT EATING FRUIT AFTER A?MEAL!? FRUIT SHOULD BE EATEN ON AN? EMPTY ?STOMACH. ? Eating fruit like that?plays a major role in detoxifying your system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life activities.? FRUIT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOOD. Let’s say you eat two slices of bread,?then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit is ready to go straight through the stomach into the intestines, but it’s prevented from doing so.? In the meantime, the whole meal rots and ferments, and turns to acid. The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach, and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil. ? Eat your fruit…

A friend sent this and I felt it was worth sharing. 5 Foods for Beautiful Skin By Brierley Wright, M.S., R.D., EatingWell.com My husband, Andy, lives in a perpetual summer, chasing warmer weather, making a living racing sailboats—so, understandably, he’s a sunscreen fanatic. And for good reason: more than a million Americans will be diagnosed with skin cancer this year, which by the way is the most common type of cancer . Andy’s sunscreen habits mean he’s protecting his skin from the sun’s damaging ultraviolet rays from the outside in. …

Herb History & Tips
Herbs have been used by man for thousands of years not only as a means of survival but also as flavor enhancements.? It was discovered early on that certain foods when combined with certain herbs, lead to a much more desirable taste.? For years many we grew their own herbs.? Unfortunately we became so busy with families and work, home gardening and cooking made way for TV dinners and take out food.? Now most of these wonderful flavors come from a bottle or can. Herbs are not used just for their flavors.? They also have various health and medicinal benefits too.? A lot of today’s prescription drugs and home remedies come directly from herbs.? Most herbs grow very easily in a garden, indoor planter or a simple patio garden using containers bunched together. Herbs need very little in regards to cultivation.? With occasional feeding and normal watering, you can have beautiful, aromatic and flavorful herbs to create exciting and imaginative dishes for yourself.? Use them as a garnish on a platter, float a spring in soups or as a lining in a bread basket.? If you have never used fresh herbs when grilling, it’s simple.? Pick you herbs, soak them in water for 10-15 minutes, lay the herbs directly on your coals just before placing your food on the grill.? You will create an aromatic, yet subtle smoking that will enhance your food.? If you don’t have an herb garden , start one by going to your garden nursery and buying a couple herbs for a window sill .? You’ll wonder why it took you so long to start your own little garden of taste.

I tried to take a nap and couldn’t get my mind shut down.? It was cooking and when it’s in that frame I usually come up with some pretty good recipes.? Today’s recipe is simple, with only 4 ingredients, but it needs a name.? Help me out by giving this a name so I can put it in my cookbook Think With Your Taste Buds – Desserts.? I’m running short on time, the manuscript goes to the publisher next week, so I need your name suggestions quickly.? OK, here is the recipe. Pretzels (thin stick or thin squares) Marshmallows White chocolate chips Coconut Preheat oven to 400 degrees.? Line your pan with non-stick foil or parchment paper or foil sprayed with non-stick spray.? Line your pretzels up to cover the bottom of your pan.? Cover the pretzels with marshmallows.? Bake until the marshmallows are puffed up and melted but not browned.? Take from the oven and sprinkle with white chocolate chips.? Sprinkle coconut over chips.? Turn the oven to broil.? Put pan back in the oven and let coconut slightly brown.? Cool completely.? Using a knife or pizza wheel, slice into squares.? I like using the large flake coconut which I buy at a health food store.? It’s unsweetened and so much better than shredded.? You can use milk chocolate but the salt from the pretzels and the sweetness of the white chocolate make them a perfect match.? I can’t give measurements because it all depends on the size of your pan.? I used a cookie sheet for making this and used about 4 large hands full of pretzel sticks, I used about 1 bag of large marshmallows, 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips and about 1/2 cup of coconut.? Now, name this and I’ll make sure your name will be included in the book for giving this a name.?
