Rapper. Singer. Flutist. Artist. Born in Detroit. Spent a good chunk of her youth in Houston. Currently out of Minneapolis. In 2013 she put out the album "Lizzobangers". In 2015 it was "Big Grrrl Small World". Her new EP is "Coconut Oil". I'm admittedly not a huge fan of contemporary hip hop, r&b, or pop music. But listening to Lizzo's music while getting ready for our interview I couldn't help but get caught up in the lyrics, the hooks, and the presence of the artist. A jaded 28-year radio veteran like me is pretty hard to impress. Lizzo blew me away. Whether singing or talking about herself or the outside world...hitting on issues from race to gender to body image to relationships to politics , I knew that I had to photograph her because she's on the verge of becoming a superstar.

Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil is the highest quality coconut oil available and is used in recipes that need a high quality Virgin Coconut Oil. A list of recipes can be found at the Free Coconut Recipes website. There is also a short video you can watch to see how this oil was discovered and how it is made.
Sweet Pea (and carrots?) handmade hot process soap. Beautiful and delightfully fragranced with sweet pea fragrance oil.
I use my soap as shampoo bars as well. It's a fun way to get clean from head to toe in one fell swoop ~ schwooosh! I then use a (very light) jojoba oil, shea butter and avocado butter mixture about every three days. I have very long, curly, unmanageable, frizzy, gnarly hair... and it actually pleases me. Not to mention no chemicals left to leech their way into my scalp!
My method: Lather up a wash cloth really REALLY good and squeeze it out onto your hair. This is easier then trying to lather your hands and then transfer. Scrub it up and use the remainder for your body. Close your eyes for the hair part though - or ouch! Then rinse and you are all done. You've saved water, time and smell great too. Ah…
*I only use my 'plain' soap bars for shampoo bars. I don't use any soaps that have clay, or oatmeal, coffee, poppy seeds, flowers, herbs… etc. You get the picture right? I don't want anything leftover hanging around making me look silly. I can do that by myself.
You will receive 1 bar approximately 5+ ounces. Some bars weigh more and these bars will go first. I am a terrible cutter, but I try...
It's good to let your soap air out between uses for a longer lasting bar. Store your handmade soaps in a cool dry place letting them breathe. I cut mine in quarters to make them last longer :-) and this way I can use a different soap everyday - yay me!
Hand crafted soaps are so good for your skin. No added chemicals and all the natural glycerin is retained. I'll never go back to buying store bought chemical laden soaps.

Considering it's the Festive Season, I thought I'd add some extra fruit and nuts into the apple crisp. I'm into experimenting with my food, so this was right up my alley. I can tell you the house smells so good right now, can't wait to try this, it's something new for me.
Cinnamon Sugar Cocoa Butter Handmade Natural Soap
This soap is made with cinnamon sugar fragrance oil. It smells just like cinnamon and sugar, but not too sweet. Too sweet = bad news in my aromaland. I've added tons and tons and tons of cocoa butter to the base of this bar. To top it off, I've enriched with shea butter, sweet almond oil and vegetable glycerin for more moisturizing goodness. It's a very rich bar of soap and will leave you feeling silky smooth.
This would definitely be a bar of soap that I'd wash my hair with too. I use almost all of my plain (meaning no added herbs and stuff) as shampoo bars. My method: Lather up a wash cloth really REALLY good and squeeze it out onto your hair. This is easier then trying to lather your hands and then transfer. Scrub it up and use the remainder for your body. Close your eyes for the hair part though - or ouch! Then rinse and you are all done. You've saved water, time and smell great too. Ah…

When you’re permanently dyeing your hair, it can sometimes bring a lot of damage to it. Ammonia is used to open the hair fiber so that dye can nestle in. It is also known to smell terribly and can irritate the delicate skin on scalp.

Apple, plum, and oatmeal with trail mix pie.
The experimental crust of this pie is made with coconut oil in place of butter, shortening, or lard. I do believe the experiment is successful. It results in a slightly crunchy crust, at least mine did. I like it.
This started out as an ordinary apple pie but then I decided to include plums. Then instead of using corn starch or flour to thicken, I chose my prepared oatmeal mixture which includes trail mix. I augmented with more dried fruit, raisins, cherries, cranberries, and pecans. I added a cup. Decided that wasn't enough so added another cup. I included coconut oil in place of butter in the filling. This made more filling than the pie could contain so I ate it apart from the pie. It was a little bit like the most amazing granola in the history of ever.
Pie crust
* 1 + 1/2 cup sifted flour (cold)
* 3 rounded tablespoons coconut oil (cold)
* 1/8 teaspoon salt
* 1 Tablespoon palm sugar, organic sugar, whatever
* 1/4 cup (cold) water
Rub the chilled coconut oil into the flour in the usual way to pea-sized flour-coated nodules. Add just enough water to bring the mixture together. This needn't be sweetened. It can be seasoned however the impulse strikes.
Pie filling
* 5 or 6 apples, depending on size
* 3 plums
* 1 + 1/2 cup to 2 cups oatmeal combined with trail mix
* extra dry fruit as desired
* 1 rounded tablespoon coconut oil
I used organic palm sugar because I had it on hand but it's not necessary. Any sugar will work, including brown sugar or honey, or none at all if you prefer to keep it to the natural sugar in the fruit. I added very little, just a tablespoon.
My prepared oatmeal mixture contains a load of cinnamon, various nuts and dried fruit, so I didn't add any more spices. If I didn't use the oatmeal, then I'd have added spices, namely, cinnamon, allspice, clove or possibly ginger. I have a tendency to overdo things.
Pre-bake pie crust for 12 minutes at 400℉. Heat the pie filling on stove top to cause apples to shrink and fruit to release liquid which is soaked up by oatmeal. Bake for 25 minutes at 400℉.

This yummy smelling bar is smells so good and has dragon's blood and jasmine polka dots throughout. It's main smell is patchouli with a sweet undertow of jasmine and dragons blood.
You will receive one bar of appoximately 4+ ounces.

Neroli Oatmeal Black and White Hybrid Handmade Soap
I'm calling these soaps my 'hybrid' soap because I've used a great glycerin base and added my own hot process touches to them as well! The best of both worlds!
This soap is made with an oatmeal glycerin base and I've added Hawiian Black Lava Salt with activated charcoal to the bottom. Then added a second layer filled with hot process soap (though you can't see it, it's in there) made with Australian Black Clay and the same oatmeal base. Then the top layer is back to white and more bigger chunks of black clay hot process soap. All these layers are generously scented with neroli fragrance oil, which has a touch of essential in it. A very, wonderful unisex scent. I've added a great balance of both soaps so you'll get all the benefit of a true handmade soap with the beauty of a melt and pour.
Very good for your skin and wonderful to look at too. Bars weigh approximately 4 ounces.
Please keep your soaps in a well draining soap dish and allow them to dry out between uses. Otherwise they will drink up all the water and turn into a bloated mushy mess.

Just having some fun trying my hand at liquid soap making. Started yesterday and finished it up today. Scented with tangerine essential oil, which also gives it that nice amber hue.
Finished soap in jars ready to be sequestered. It will be ready in about two weeks. The soap should become clearer and thicker as it cools and sits. I am loving the color and the tangerine scent!
Q. How long after I've discovered a new baking apparatus until I attempt to make a brownie in it?
A. Not very.
p.s. The more I look at this photo the more it reminds me of one of those very deep & luxurious leather couches..? The kind your legs stick to in the summertime. You know.

The Sacha Inchi (Plukenetia volubilis linneo) plant is indigenous to the Peruvian Amazon Forest, and produces small nuts that are extremely rich in high quality, nutritious vegetable oil.
Sacha Inchi oil was awarded the gold medal for excellent organoleptic qualities at the World Edible Oils competition in Paris, in 2004.
Sacha Inchi oil is valued as a nutritional supplement because it contains a high concentration of polyunsaturated fatty acids, making it an excellent source for Omega 3 (alpha linolenic acid) and Omega 6 (linoleic acid). It contains no cholesterol.
This oil is the perfect supplement for people that do not eat fish or enough Omega-rich vegetables. It contains antioxidants vitamin A and vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol). It is high in protein, and rich in essential and non-essential amino acids that are important for good health.
Sacha Inchi oil is highly digestible (96%), and does not cause gas or irritation, like some other oils. It contains no additives, or preservatives. Sacha Inchi has a distinctive, delicious flavor, and aroma. It is also an excellent dressing on salads and for homemade beauty treatments.
