Back to Basic, my book about self reliance, is now on sale on Amazon

For years friends and acquaintances have asked me questions about self reliance. After much research and pretty much repeating the same things I thought, 'That's it, I'm going to put the information together in a bundle and they can have it as a book.'

This is how back to Basic was born. It's designed to help you if you are a beginner and have no clue about self reliance. Looking at the general state of the economy, it's a good idea to organise our lives to live more frugally.

Plus, this book will be great for my children, when they grow up and try to remember how to do things. Right?
Here are some of the topics:
  • why we are in debt
  • smart shopping
  • budgeting
  • dehydrating
  • gardening
  • sprouting
  • home-made toiletries
  • smart shopping for Christmas
  • clever and cheaper ways to have fun
You can buy it in paperback or as a Kindle.

I had chicken, cooked veggies and melon - now I feel bloated and heavy and even my shoulders ache. Strange...

How to heal from Paronychia (bacterial nail infection) with herbs!

How a friend healed from Paronychia  (bacterial nail infection) with herbs! About a week ago I went to my local supermarket and I noticed that the till assistant had a sling on his bandaged middle finger. I am curious by nature , so I couldn't help asking him what happened to his finger. Carl, that was his name, promptly showed me and my daughter his finger (after taking off bandage and sling of course). To have an idea of what it looked like, have a look at Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paronychia It looks painful, doesn't it? He said that when he was watching a football on TV, he didn't realise that his nail-biting had gone a bit over the limit, and he had torn some flesh. His doctor was about to see him in two days, he reassured me, and he probably expected to be given antibiotics to treat the infection. Not happy with what I saw, I suggested a few herbs that could help him earlier than his G.P. appointment. However, once I got hom...

Recipe: Chocolate/Carob Pudding

This recipe was sent to me as part of Karen Knowler's newsletters. I tried it and tweaked it to my liking.....it's very good and overly sweet!  Chocolate (Carob) Pudding Ingredients: * 2 avocadoes * 1 cup dates * 1/2 cup raw carob powder or cocoa powder * optional mint syrup   * Water as needed (dates give a hard time to  the  blades if they are not in water) Directions 1) Simply blend all ingredients in a food processor or with a hand blender until the mixture is smooth and creamy. (A blender can’t cope with this almost solid, sticky mixture) 2) Taste test before serving. Add more avocado if you'd like it richer and/or creamier, add more dates for extra sweetness or more carob/cocoa for a stronger chocolate flavour. 3) Serve on its own or with raw ice-cream for the ultimate treat. RAW COACH'S TOP TIPS: * This recipe will keep for about 2-3 days in the fridge. Comment from Franz: this pudding is e...
