Hi everybody! It was a really warm balmy winter here in Hawaii without much rain. It’s hard to believe it’s almost Summer! This year is flying by. I’m hoping to catch up on LOTS more pictures from recent Hikes, Beach adventures and Fabulous organic Fruit Picking outings soon!! So please check back for more new posts 🙂
I had so much fun picking these local apple Bananas (they’re so sweet), wild Yellow Guava, Starfruit and thankfully didn’t have to pick these local Hawaiian grown Durians. Ha!!! Since they grow about 50 feet up and are very heavy and dangerously sharp & prickly. They’re VERY yummy, sweet and such a treat to eat fresh!!
It’s wonderful to be able to pick so many edible wild greens & guavas while hiking!! Nasturtium, Plantain, Gotu Kola, WATERCRESS (extremely exciting to find growing wild) Thistles, Cat’s Ear, Blue Vervain, Curly Dock. Please remember it can be risky picking wild plants so please research first and be careful what you eat!
To the delight of my friends & roommates, I’ve also been practicing my vegan gluten free baking, making LOTS of muffins, all flavors!!! So far good results, everyone likes them and haven’t had to toss any disastrous batches to the chickens. Fingers crossed!! I’m mostly have a raw vegan diet (so hardly anything cooked or baked) but these muffins are a healthy treat and it’s so much fun to give them to friends and family!!
I have made so many different flavors and will post more pics soon. Vegan gluten free Blueberry, Lemon Blueberry, Berry, Lemon Poppy seed, Carrot Cake, Cinnamon Maple Pecan, Chocolate Chip Banana, Chocolate Black Sapote, Cinnamon Egg Fruit Pecan, Banana Cinnamon, Apple Pie Spice, Mango Coconut…..
