Healthy Family Food Options - No Bake Nut Slice

Meet Bridget...

  I recently met Bridget Serafimidis on my 'eating healthy journey'...
Bridget is passionate.
Passionate about:
Women's and children's health.
About empowering families to take control of their own health, by giving them the tools to create healthy food cultures within the home.
She loves sharing recipes that are not full of fillers and for the most part, refined sugar-free. 
Recipes that are easy enough for even the new home cook to pride themself on creating. 
Recipes that are family-friendly and adaptable for everyone.  
Bridgets philosophies resonated with me as I am on a heal myself through diet mission.  
A mission that is all about health, vitality, energy and healing from consuming homemade and healthier food chooses.  

Here is a delicious slice to try:

Healthy Nut Slice
It is a fabulous nutty, chocolatey, 'sweet fix' choice.
It's also 'no-bake'.
Plus super fun to make with the children or grandchildren.

Everything Has Beauty...

It seems like 'forever' since I have shared a quote.
This old petalless sunflower was the inspiration to do so.
Here in New Zealand, we are nearing winter.
And as autumn closes the garden is falling into its rest state.
The flowers are spent.
The leaves are coloured.
And though there is a chill in the air,
 it is time to remember this quote by Confucius,
'Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it'.
Open your eyes to the beauty found in the changing seasons.

Pickle Plant...❥


succulents
Well, ain't this just the cutest little succulent plant?

succulents
It's called a pickle plant.
because of its cute pickle like resemblance.
The official Latin name is Delosperma Echinatum.
Succulents are so easy to grow.
You just need the right conditions for them.  This one LOVES full sun.
And it is great for pots.

I found this little pot in the Garden Centre too.
So pretty with a gorgeous green decoupage effect on its glaze.

I'm placing this cutie now planted,
 on the corner of my office desk as it gets a lot of sunshine there.
Then eventually I will move it outside onto the little office deck!


succulents
Like all succulents, this will be easy to propagate...
by planting a fleshy pickle into a little soil to eventually grow a new plant.


Delosperma Echinatum.
Check out the cute yellow flower bud!
