You have beet greens in your garden now? I am envious — we have three inches of snow on the ground here in Michigan.

The Valerie Oracle says: I think at 60 you’ll be catching horrible bugs from your grandkids, but that you’ll be healthy for all the years in between the time Toddler Yum acclimates to daycare germs and the time when the grandkids start. :-)

Hi Valerie, Thank you for the encouraging words. I know you’re probably right about the daycare thing. It has just scared me that the last two years I’ve gotten serious pneumonia- makes me feel like, if this is what 35 is like, what about when I’m 60? This case was a lot better than last year, though, because I went to the doctor as soon as I had symptoms.

Mmm, beet greens… Can’t wait to harvest ours from our garden! In fact, I think they need thinning…. ;)

Hi GF Veg, Thank you!

HI Alta, I have some kale growing (sloooowly) in my garden too. I have a bunch of beets also flourishing… can’t wait to harvest them! I’ll keep you posted on the book.

Hi Shirley,
Isn’t the idea of brain food/ matching nutritional needs throughout the day a cool one? I hadn’t really run into a chef like that in a restaurant outside of a raw foods restaurant, and those are kind of their own special genre. I really like this restaurant and chef! I’ve never had kale in a smoothie- how goofy am I! Maybe we can inspire each other. :)

Joyce, You can certainly make your own almond butter with toasted (rather than raw) almonds. I don’t care for the flat flavor of untoasted, raw almond butter, which is why I specified roasted almond butter. Depending on where you source your almond butter or nuts, I find it is usually just as cheap to buy pre-made almond butter rather than make it from scratch myself. I usually buy my nut butters at Trader Joe’s because it is a lot cheaper.

I have a Facebook account- do a search for Sea Maiden and my blog page “Book of Yum”. Hope to see you there. I update whenever I have a new blog post.

DH= dear husband.

ROASTED almond butter? Something new? I’m not into buying products I can make myself. So I’m wondering if just plain almond butter would be okay. I usually find good food through my Facebook account and would love to add you, but notice you don’t have any? PS — what is a DH?
