it is autumn here in the states. made Will and myself some cashew yoghurt- which came out beautifully and which Will adores. hub and i have offered him bits of cooked occasionally but he tastes and turns his nose up- yay! we are currently sharing the kitchen with ants and the house altogether w/fleas. the ants make it slightly difficult to soak, sprout, etc. i have found a walnut tree down the street. walnuts all over the ground in their round green fortresses. i will look up how to handle them and conquer undoubtedly. the last of the figs have ripened on our neighbor's tree. i was given free reign on "our" side. there were mornings that i would go all morn'n doing chores, not eating, then wander out and delight in a handful or 2. he's offered to start a tree for me if i can find out how to start it from a cutting. i have saved the seeds from a few org galas that i hope to start on the sill by winter. starting in november i will be receiving shipments of florida citrus- not org. but fresh and less enviro-affecting transport-wise as the only decent citrus available lately has been s. african! sorry for the sudden wordage and sparse activity 'til now. the cost here is outrageous! peace

Hi Motherwytch,

Well, I've just decided to peek in and have a little read at your journal.  Well, lo and behold the first entry in this journal sounds like me RIGHT NOW.  But anyhoo, this is not about me.

Just a quick email to ask you how on earth you made the cashew yoghurt? And can you substitute the cashews with any other nuts?  Wow, the name itself sounds delightful.....CASHEW YOGHURT!!!!

Anyway nice to "meet" you and hopefully I'll be armed with your recipe soon.

Love BB

Oh Whytchie, I wish I could send you some fruit or something to make it all better. I hope that life improves for you dramatically and that you get to enjoy your son's 6th birthday. I hope he enjoys it as well! Much love.

Still using the mobile phone to do this, so pardon my lack of dependable frequency. Love

I'm dreaming of cherry tarts. Dan brought home a bag of cherries. So, the crust needs to be pine nuts and... apricots? Hmmm. Wound up making stuffed peppers for supper. Had green and orange- orange are my favorites! I am going to try to update my journal once a week, unless i hit on something special. Love

What a lot of cherries! Lucky ducks, you 2.        Husband in a charming mood today. This is making it a bit difficult to be positive and upbeat but ) have had some lemon water and a gs so far today. Last night i started a jar of yogurt- added a bit more of the cashews to make it thicker. This raw thing certainly helps me practice patience! Should have spinach today for stuffed shrooms. Day 4! Love
