  • MBO

    In the last couple posts I wrote about the amazing almond/coconut butter mix seasoned with curry powder. I wrote that it is as close as it gets to an FBO from food. But I was thinking about FBO’s, and I do think there’s an even higher form of O: an MBO. Multi-body O. An FBO…

  • OMG! The best food accident I ever had!

    I just wrote about the amazing combination of chunky roasted almond butter mixed with coconut butter and seasoned with nutmeg (and possibly orange blosson honey). Tonight I was kind of spaced out and as I was seasoning my almond/coconut butter I automatically grabbed my jar of curry powder by accident without thinking and put some…

  • Coconut + nutmeg + cardamon

    The other day I was eating some of these organic, raw, vegan cookies which are made with coconut and some other ingredients, sweetened with agave.

Dong quai is sometimes called “female ginseng” and my interest in…

  • Dried shitake snack

    I don’t know why this didn’t occur to me sooner. I often get shitake mushrooms. I keep them in the refrigerator inside brown paper bags so that they don’t get all yucky. They dry out in there. The longer they are left the drier they become. Sometimes a bag kind of ends up getting orphaned…

  • Thinking of signing up for Silk Road

    Thinking of signing up for Silk Road. I think its outrageous that the herb ephedra has been banned from sale in the USA. I know people can make speed from it, but so what? People can do all kinds of destructive shit anyhow. That doesn’t make it right to ban an herb which is highly…

  • History of haplotype U

    …indigenous hunter-gatherers in Central Europe were edged out by incomers from Anatolia (modern Turkey) some 7,500 years ago. A majority of the hunters belonged to the maternal clan known as haplogroup U, whilst the farmers carried a selection of genetic lineages characteristic of the Near East. The DNA evidence shows that about a millennium later,…
