Tea Tree French Green Clay Oatmeal Honey Natural Soap
All natural - no added fragrances or colorants - pure goodness, and enriched with shea butter for extra moisture!
Oatmeal: Natural oatmeal is also helpful for home solutions to treat acne. It is in fact wonderful for all skin irritations. Natural oatmeal is an acne solution and also an astringent because it removes oil and impurities off of the skin, keeping skin clean and acne-free.
French Green Clay: French Green Clay has enormous absorbent powers... It literally "drinks" oils, toxic substances, and impurities from your skin. Its toning action stimulates the skin by bringing fresh blood to damaged skin cells, revitalizing the complexion, and tightening pores. French Green Clay is marvelous for helping to clear problem skin.
Honey: Honey removes dirt, is antibacterial, soothing and smoothing, and regulates skin moisture. It is also protective and nutritive for all skin types, but especially for blemished, dry and sensitive skin.
Tea Tree Oil: Tea tree oil has been used effectively to treat acne, abscess, athlete's foot, blisters, burns, cold sores, insect bites, oily skin, rashes, spots, warts and wounds. You can use tea tree oil to cure sunburns, diaper rash, toenail infections and problems of smelly feet.
You will receive 1 bar approximately 4+ ounces.
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.

sort of an experiment. i cooked the peppers and an onion separately (with garlic, ginger, and little chicken stock and water) which i then liquified with a stick blender and added to to the sautéed meat and vegetables. i wasn't bad but the potato i added was a mistake. it was too starchy with the rice, but it could have been that i didn't cook the flour long enough when i made the roux. i ended up blitzing the leftovers- it turns out it makes a pretty good soup base.
I made a basic vanilla GF DF cupcake and I used date sugar for the first time. Then I made marzipan but used the same (very brown) date sugar (my first time making marzipan). I made a circle of marzipan then flattened it on the top of the cupcake then rolled it in coconut. I then laid a strip of marzipan on top and put walnuts. I then made a sugar syrup (DF margarine and agave syrup) and heated it until it began to harden. I poured the syrup over the cupcake and added pomegranate seeds. OMG YUM!

Flowers/buds of a coconut palm (chotta). The coconut tree was cut down for some reason, and I could take this shot easily.
The coconut tree is called thengu തെങ്ങ്, or Kera Vriksham കേരവൃക്ഷം (vriksham = tree) in malayalam and the state of Kerala in India is named after this to mean the land of coconut trees. Almost every part of the coconut tree is used in Kerala, one way or the other. Tender coconut is an interesting, healthy, nutritious drink. The coconut kernel is used in cooking and dried to extract coconut oil. The oil is used for cooking, and by the soap and cosmetics industry. The coconut tree trunk, the shell , and the husk are all used in numerous ways to makelike house hold items, coir, and as a building material. And then, of course you have Kallu കള്ള്

The Times of India writes in an editorial article:
God’s Own Fruit
[ FRIDAY, AUGUST 23, 2002 12:07:04 AM ]
This year “God’s own country” has additional reason to celebrate Onam, thanks to timely western reports that scientists have shed their prejudices about coconut oil. They now proclaim it is “the world’s healthiest edible oil”.
As the couplet goes, “What is the use of being high and mighty, if you don’t help the needy? Then, like the tall palm, you are unable to provide shade and your fruits lie beyond the tired traveller’s reach”.
Not the coconut palm which offers food, beverage, cooking oil, timber, thatching, coir-fibre, utensil containers, medicine, cosmetics and even liquor. But the West rejected the coconut, whose milk, oil, shredded white kernel and dried copra were considered rich in calories and cholesterol, causing weight and heart problems.

Patti Flynn soap. (if that link doesn't work, try this: www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5251488 )
I met Patty Flynn here on flickr and finally had a chance to meet her in person yesterday. A beautiful lady with a heart of gold and a contagious happy personality.
Anyway, she is an accredited carbon-neutral soap maker (www.climatefriendly.com) and is on the preferred products list with www.choosecruelty.free.org.au.
Her soap is the gourmet soap of the earth!
We had Homemade Yukon Gold Potato Salad and Red Snapper for supper. I brushed the fish with a little coconut oil. Then added some Tarragon from the garden, some Porcini Mushrooms, some fresh squeezed lemon juice and slices and some Vadalia onion on top. I sprinkled a little salt and pepper and dill over the whole thing and baked it in tin foil on the barbecue. It was good!
One of the fatter turkey breasts i got at the co-op i sliced on the bias thinking they would pretty much act like pork cutlets. i let them hang out in buttermilk all night, coated them in flour, dipped them in (seasoned) egg, and coated that in panko bread crumbs. they fried up nicely, and they really do seem equivalent to pork cutlets, though adding a dab of coconut oil and lard to the fry oil really helped. served here with basmati rice, kewpie mayo, and some daikon salad.

We use coconut oil as one of our main cooking fats, along with local pastured butter and organic olive oil. Coconut oil has a higher smoking point than olive oil and butter, so it's very useful in high heat cooking. It makes the best popcorn when mixed with ghee and you can't beat potatoes fried in coconut oil. I've tried many different brands of coconut oil, and a few different varieties before finding Tropical Traditions and falling in love with their products. I have many of their products in my pantry: Gold Label Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, Expeller Pressed Coconut Oil, Coconut Cream, Shredded Coconut and I also get my tuna from them and I love them all - if you're looking for great quality coconut products look no further.
I use the various Tropical Traditions products for different things. The Gold Label Extra Virgin is a fragrant coconut oil, meaning that is smells of coconut and infuses food with a slight coconut flavor. If you've ever tried using it for cooking mushrooms or something you quickly realize that it works in some applications and not others. I do not like the virgin oil when it comes to frying potatoes, mushrooms, onions or other savory type applications. It does however work beautifully in baked goods where a hint of coconut enhances the flavor. I use the Virgin Coconut oil in my healthy carrot oatmeal bites. It also makes basmati rice taste exotic and tropical. Simple add one Tablespoon for each cup of rice and you'll be pleasantly surprised at how delicious the rice is. I also use it for hand & body lotion, hair conditioner and I use it to season all of my wooden cooking utensils. I love having one product I can use for so many things.
