Golden flax crackers

I just bought some Nushie's flax crackers from Fruit Pedallers. They are really good, and made in Melbourne. Bit expensive for me to to eat regulary, maybe I should get a dehydrator.

Nushie’s Natural pays high attention to life force as an ingredient. Our ingredients are all enziomatic active so that it costs the body nothing to fully digest. Unless otherwise stated all our products are made from 100% organic ingredients. We do not cook our foods thereby retaining all the natural nutrients of our ingredients. Our principles stem from Life Food Nutrition. And because our products are all plant based they contain no cholesterol.

My adventure to the farmers market

Amazingly I have never been to the farmers market at the Collingwood childrens Farm. It's actually kind of unbelievable if I stop to think about it, but i guess it's not really 'on my way' and I usually don't have extra leisure market time (for some strange reaso?n), and usually I just pop along to Ceres and get my weekly friendly little vegetables. It was a really nice experience to go to the farmers market today though in terms of your weekly veggie shop in can't replace Ceres, what it does have though is extra special fancy farm fresh artisan craft foods. I tasted the softest juiciest oranges I've ever had in my life, bought rock hard beautiful green avocados grown in northen Victoria, sampled delicious dips, olive oils, kiwi fruits and wished that I had a car so I could buy a mushroom growing kit! It was very very exciting to see so many local producers embracing slow food, low food miles and chemical free/conscious/organic/biodynamic farming. Harray for food! And for sunshine!

Conscious nutrition

I was just reading Heidi Merika's website - naturopath, and herbalist specialising in plant based nutrition and living foods - and felt compelled to share some of her words

"Food is a love note from God. Its letters are written by the rays of the sun.
It says I love you and I shall take care of you and sustain you with the offerings of my earth." ~ Gabriel Cousens M.D.

Conscious Nutrition goes beyond food as a source of fuel. It even goes beyond nutrition for health and healing.
It is about using food as a tool for personal and planetary transformation.

Conscious nutrition incorporates the whole food model and takes it one step further to an energetic level.  The purpose of conscious eating is two fold; firstly we must nourish our bodies by eating organic whole foods. Secondly we can use our food choices to enhance our spiritual practice and our subtle energy fields.  In this model foods are chosen not only for their nutritional benefits but also for the affect they have on the consciousness. Thus even certain ‘healthy’ foods may be avoided at particular times if they produce certain kinds of effects on an energetic level. Garlic, for example, is often avoided by spiritual practitioners who find it stimulates the mind and physical passions and makes it difficult to meditate. In this model one is concerned with the energy field of the food thus living, raw foods are chosen most often because they have the highest vibration. They also contain greater amounts of nutrients and enzymes that have not been damaged by heating or processing.. ... Continue reading on Heidi's website Conscious Nutrition
