February: Educate


I started the month with a Bach Flower Remedy Workshop given in Spanish.  Two for one..yay me.  An interesting topic that has applications with a number of other interests I enjoy.  The fact that I kept up in Spanish is a huge accomplishment for me. It kick started some research into ayurveda again...always an interest of mine with aromatherapy.  For March and April I will offer chakras themes 2 weeks at a time using the Wheels of Life by Judith Anodea as a guidebook...ending at the end of May...what to read in June?

It encourages me to try other courses...like the red cross lifeguard course.....it is Saturday afternoons with a swim to Poneloya...a prerequisite for the life guard certification, if I understood in Spanish correctly?  Followed by Sunday mornings rescues and first aid I think.  They also swim in Leon from 4-6 in the morning...I thought 6 was early when I was a kid...I cant imagine being up that early now or ever...to swim.

I love to bake and make sweets....some new recipes this month...Flor de Cana Espresso buttercream, making chocolate covered items, vegan lemon cake with coconut frosting, almond biscotti...more.


I am learning about successful workshops, publicity, curb appeal and how the self employment portion of my life works.  Things can be a bit different than expected here sometimes....always be ready to adapt.








Acro Yoga Workshop in On A Whim....we welcomed Anthony Alcalde of Acro Yoga Nicaragua...again... everytime.....it's always a good time to play.

Week 2: Monday-Thursday

Day 5:  NO spending day.  It was a quiet Monday. Day 6:  I spent approx $6.00 to fill a prescription. I should probably update you on another goal I had for this year.  I have been trying to make it to the gym twice a week since January.  It doesn't seem like a big goal but some weeks it is tough. Truthfully I haven't made it even once in the last  two weeks but I got back on track today with a bootcamp class at the YMCA I go to.  Although I am not noticing much difference in my weight or how I look I have noticed a substantial difference in how I feel......GREAT!  I am also hoping it will translate into an improved softball season. I may never be in the shape I was at 20 again but I can certainly try and be closer than I am now. Today was also lunch date day.....my coworker brought pulled pork sandwiches with carrot stick and cherry tomatoes.  She also made chocolate peanut butter squares....ummm delicious.  I will have to get that ...

So This is Christmas

So this is Christmas And what have you done? Another year over And a new one just begun And so this is Christmas I hope you have fun The near and the dear one The old and the young A very merry Christmas And a happy New Year Let's hope it's a good one Without any fear And so this is Christmas For weak and for strong For rich and the poor ones The world is so wrong And so happy Christmas For black and for white For yellow and red ones Let's stop all the fight I was reminded of this song at a dinner theatre I went to on Monday so I looked it up and here it is.  It is amazing that a song written so many years ago is still so relevant today.  You would think with evolution and technology and all the advances of today's world there would be no validity in songs like this.  Wrong! I only hope that we as citizens of the world can join forces as one in time to save ourselves.

I am cooking from the ingredients I have!

I found a website that allows you to put in the ingredients you have in your kitchen and then gives you recipes to use them.  I have added the gadget to my blog if you want to check out how it works.  I am going to try it because I am always trying to find new ways to prepare all the things I like to eat in my kitchen.  It takes recipes from a multitude of good cooking sites such as Martha Stewart, Epicurious, All recipes and more. this week I will try the puffed pancake with strawberries and I don't have to check because Supercook already figured that out for me......
