Easy Peasy Icecream

My son is a massive fan of icecream, who isn't right, but like me his tummy doesn't like cows milk too much so we eat this yummy dairy free icecream instead. It takes just minutes to whip up, which is just the way i like it and is so good that Theo and i always want more!

 Chocolate Icecream 

For 2 people

2 bananas (broken into small pieces and frozen overnight)

2 tablespoons of dark chocolate powder (adapt depending on how chocolatey you like it)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

4 drops vanilla essence

A good splash of soya/rice milk to mix 

bung it all in a blender and zap until fully blended 

Eat straight away and enjoy!

another favourite:

Fruit Icecream

For 2 people

1 banana (frozen in pieces overnight or it can be fresh if using frozen berries)

2 handfuls of frozen berries (for example blueberries, raspberries etc or just one kind on its own)

2 drops of vanilla essence

optional dollop of udo's choice oil (blend of omega oils 3-6-9) which makes it creamier in taste

and a good splash of apple juice or orange juice to blend it all 

 I also sometimes add a tablespoon of green superfood powder to get some more goodness into Theo.

As above bung it all in a blender and zap until fully blended. 

Eat straight away and enjoy!

Dr. Emoto requests assistance for Japan in the form of prayer and positive intention

A little late in the day, as this post has been sitting in my edit box for a while, but nevertheless still very relevant is Dr.Emoto's request for us to come together to send prayer and postive intention to the waters around the Japanese Nuclear plant of Fukushima. Rather than dismissing this as total rubbish have a look at the following article:
Dr. Emoto requests assistance for Japan in the form of prayer and positive intention and also if you wish my earlier blogpost about Dr.Emoto's work with water: http://alittlelightonlife.blogspot.com/2009/12/our-thoughts-can-literally-change-our.html

Right Now

There are a few things that i'm loving using with Sebastian so i thought i'd post them here over the next few days.

Number 1:

When Sebastian was born a lovely friend of mine gave him a couple of products from a company called ERBAVIVA which are almost 100% organic and smell delicious. The first was their Organic Baby Lip &Cheek Balm which has been perfect in the Norwegian winter where skin quickly becomes dry,red and sore. It calmed Sebastians flaming cheeks within a day and as it's designed like a lipbalm it's really easy to apply wherever you need it! The second was the Sniffles Organic Baby Chest Balm,  which smells just as good and is just as effective. Sebastian had a cold and a chest thing when J gave it to him,but by the second day it was gone...will see if it as effective second time around. Do go to their website http://erbaviva.com/ to look at their stuff and maybe read their blog http://erbaviva.blogspot.com/2011/01/fresh-from-erbaviva-kitchen.html.
