Thank you ALL so much for your positive feedback on this event. This is going to be a fun way to get your kids, nephews, nieces, etc... involved in the kitchen. Those of you who don't have kids-yet, no worries! Get hubbies to help! ( you know who you are!)

Here are the guidelines:
-Make something that is easy for the kids to help you with...no restrictions at all, it could be anything- drink, dessert, main dish, snack, its up to you.
- Take a picture that shows little hands, arms, elbows...you get the drift , no faces (for privacy reasons) helping you make the recipe.
- If your kids are too young or you don't have any, just submit a recipe that is "kid-friendly". Fair enough?
-Attach a picture, a perma-link of the recipe, initials of the Little Chef and mail it to:
spicewholovedme@yahoo.ca
The Deadline is : February 20th, 2007
Have Fun!- that is the most important guideline of all!
Any questions, comments, email me directly.

My Ayurvedic Herbal Tea:


I drink this Ayurvedic concoction each day to keep my digestive fires going. I've found that this tea really helps, especially in the fall and the winter season. For more information, please consult the links below.
Roast equal amounts of Cumin, Fennel and Ajwain Seeds and powder them in your coffee grinder. You may omit the Ajwain seeds if you like. Add an equal amount of Ginger Powder to it and mix well. For variety, I also add some cinnamon, black pepper or cardamom.
Store in an airtight container.
To Prepare: Boil some water and add some of this mix and let it sit for 5 minutes and sip slowly. You may add some lemon juice or honey for flavor. Be sure to add the honey when the water is warm. Drink throughout the day to keep snack cravings away!
Disclaimer:
Please Consult your physician before taking any supplements or trying out any remedies.
Health and Wellness Tips:
I'll be posting several health and wellness tips that I come across in my daily readings to share with you:
-Yogurt and Cheese lower blood pressure according to some Spanish research studies. Get 2-3 daily servings of low fat dairy in your diet each day!
-Next time you get a headache, chew on some almonds! Almonds contain Salicylates, a similar painkiller found in aspirin. They also contain Vitamin E which widens blood vessels to ease circulation in the head,and magnesium which reduces muscle tension.
-Having trouble falling asleep? Eat lettuce, AFTER dinner. Lettuce contains 'lactucarium' which makes you feel sleepy!
-Hang some English Ivy plants around various parts of the house. The Ivy plants help clean the air around you!
