I bought a Queen B beeswax candle from one of my favourite stores Biome last year and totally adored it – a sweet square votive in a delicate porcelain cup, and packaged in a lovely recycled cardboard box. It was simple and perfect.I’ve since found that Queen B has a range of great candles, all created with pure cotton wicks and 100% Australian beeswax, which means no parafin, no soy, and no palm

As a seafood and nature lover,the Gulf coast Oil spill’s dire consequences immensely concerns me.When Foodbuzz announced the 24×24 Gulf Ambassador event dedicated towards raising money for those affected by the Gulf oil spill.I could not possibly miss the opportunity to support the rebuilding efforts and promptly proposed a Gulf inspired meal titled “Save the Coast – A Louisiana Seafood Celebration”.Apparently Mr.Healthnut and I were in planning of a get together.It has been a year since we moved to Columbus and was about time we socialized with our new acquaintances.With my proposal accepted and my amiable pals available to join in the seafood feast,here is how I proceeded to prepare and execute the memorable dinner. Normally I would start the preparation for a party(like this one) at least 3 days ahead.But it was different with seafood which tastes best the same day as cooked.The only prep work the day before was to have all the ingredients in hand. Since my friends share the same love for spicy seafood ,the main ingredients were exclusively seafood.I choose affordable simple kind – crab,shrimp and fish,since we wanted this to be a budget friendly meal.Inspired by traditional Louisiana cuisine,each of the courses had to be flavorful but not overwhelmingly spicy as the weather was already turning up the heat.

A close relative of bananas,carbohydrate rich Plantains when extremely ripe, taste as amazing as bananas.I have to admit,the raw plantain curry that mom used to makes did not quite kindle the appetite,but the crunchy chips and crispy fries were whole another temptation. But more than raw I cherish the ripe fruitier form of plantains.The plantains have a very long shelf life,while the raw is great for chips and curries,the medium ripe makes a great breakfast treat when lightly caramelized with little bit of sugar,better yet the completely ripe plantains are the best for making these energy boosting breakfast muffins.

Last year i read Don Miller’s A Million Miles in a Thousand Years after purchasing it at a massive book store in Portland, it was my first trip to the city and i thought it fitting to buy a Donald Miller book while there! I LOVED IT! I even labeled it one of my 2 must read books of 2009 . I was fascinated by Donald Miller’s narrative approach to life! Being a huge fan of narrative theology this wasn’t anything extraordinarily new but the way he communicated story and inspired the reader to start living a good one was, maybe not novel but timely for our fast food, movie watching culture. And it was written and communicated in Donald Miller’s classic fashion! A great book for sure.
