Make Your Own Larabars
Of all the energy/nutrition bars that are made, only Larabar are vegan and have no added sugars. Some of them are really excellent – my favorites are Pecan Pie and Carrot Cake. You can also make your own Larabars – well not exactly but very close and just as healthy! I like to use a…

Mmmm! Heavy Coconut Cream!
This coconut cream is excellent! You can add it to rice along with turmeric, cumin, and maybe some mustard seed to create an instant, rich, vegan curry seasoning. According to the label it can be used in place of whipped cream. I’m sure there are a lot of uses for it.

Low income but high-quality entertainment
Can it be considered entertainment when you are the one creating the music? I think so. I think a player enjoys what they are playing as much as someone listening. When I think about all the “events” that occur all the time, much of it seems like junk food to me and doesn’t appeal to…
