Beautiful, handmade moccasins















I love moccasins, and recently I've discovered these amazing ones from http://www.darlingtoniamoccasins.com/
not only are these moccasins the loveliest I've ever seen, they are entirely handmade by a lovely lady right here in the US. Of course they're a bit pricey compared to mainstream shoes, but they're also handmade. Now saving up and plotting a purchase.

pink hair!


I spent an afternoon with a dear friend yesterday putting bits of pink in the front of her hair. it looks absolutely lovely and it's making me crave some pink hair of my own...

chocolate cookies


i set out to make some cookies with no refined sugar and a bit more nutritional value than your average cookie and i came up with these...they are absolutely delicious! a bit more fragile than your typical cookie, but if you need them to hold up better, you could use less almond meal and more flour. i imagine a minute in a plastic baggie tucked into a tote bag and these would be a bag of crumbs! for my part, i enjoy the delicate texture and will just refrain from traveling with these guys.

blend together:
1/2 cup almond meal
1/2 cup all purpose flour(i used gluten free, obviously)
1/2 cup oatmeal
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
stir in:
1 egg
1/4 cup oil or butter(i used coconut oil)
1 cup honey
1 tsp vanilla

drop by the teaspoon full onto a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for about 8 or 9 minutes(don't over bake, the honey will scorch quicker than typical sugar would)
cool and enjoy!
