Recipe Monday!

Today's dish is a little eccentric, but it's always good to try new things. You never know if you like it or not unless you try it! The dish I'm promoting today is Creamy Cauliflower and Red Pepper Casserole. It contains cauliflower and little known fact about cauliflower promotes cancer prevention since cauliflower provides special nutrient support for three body systems that are closely connected with cancer development as well as cancer prevention. Delicious and good for you! A better combination can't be found!

Mother Earth, Mother Nature, We the Children & Easter

Did you know the first Greek God was actually a Goddess?. he is Gaia, or Mother Earth, who created herself out of primordial chaos. From her fertile womb all life sprang, and unto Mother Earth all living things must return after their allotted span of life is over.  Gaia, as Mother Nature, personifies the entire ecosystem of Planet Earth.  Mother Nature is always working to achieve and maintain harmony, wholeness and balance within the environment.

The Gaia archetype underlies all notions of the Nature Cure. Mother Nature is a healing goddess for the ancients whose glory was celebrated each spring, long before organized religion came into...
