, I'm simply saying that the past 8+ years have been the most amazing/challenging/fun years of my life. I'm saying that this space shaped my personal taste, expanded my creativity and made me think outside of the box. I'm saying that I'm thankful to all of you for reading all my posts from the very beginning, and I'm saying that despite all that, I'm ready to let it go, for a while, at least... Thank you for all the emails, notes, comments in the past 8+ years.

Recipe by Anna Jones from her Modern Way to Cook cookbook)Ingredients:- 3 tbsp chia seeds or 3 eggs- 200g dark chocolate (70%), 1 tsp vanilla extract- 200g ground almonds- 1 ½ tsp baking powder, if you are using chia seeds- 50 Place a large, heatproof bowl (big enough to fit all your ingredients) over a pan of barely simmering water, making sure the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Once melted, take the bowl off the heat and stir in the beaten eggs or the chia seed mixture, then the ground almonds, baking powder (if using), cocoa powder, half the strawberries and pistachios and remaining chocolate.

So I started to read up on the benefits that come from owning a pet and to my surprise, I realized how good they really are not only for our psyche, but also for our overall well-being. Researchers found, after looking at data from over 3 million people, that the increased social support and physical activity that comes from having a dog lowers the risk of cardiovascular disease by 11% and death from any cause by 15%.- Taking your dog out in public is a great icebreaker - a study by Britain's Warwick University found that 40 percent of people reported making friends much easier because of their dog.- Researchers found that patients with high blood pressure who also had pets could keep their blood pressure lower during times of mental stress than patients without a pet.

Of course I love my children, I just now watch them in this wicked world dealing with many of the same anxieties. Have children after God takes back control. I’m one of Jehovah’s Witnesses and we never pressure people to have children in this system of things. If you decide to come in our religion you will be more encouraged to not have children and you will be surrounded by many who “chose to stay without children“.
