Housekeeping and Mudslide Pie

Greetings from the land of the two-hour-long spectacular sunrises!

Some Housekeeping:

I've been doing some major photograph-organization: things were getting out of control. Thankfully, blogger was co-operative yesterday.

I snagged some pina colada photos and added them to yesterday's post.
I added a couple pictures to my kefir woes post that wouldn't go at the time. Of course, that story had a happy ending too.
I uploaded the photos of raw chocolates sampled in London that I was unable to upload at the time.

I'd still love to hear others' thoughts on my Conversation about ground rules for nutritional research and self-experimentation.
And if you haven't heard about my piece of good news, please refer to this post!

I had a little crust left over from the pomegranate cheesecake, so I extended it with a little liquid vanilla and shredded coconut to make a half-size 'heavenly mudslide pie' (from Sweet Gratitude but low-sugar-ized) as a surprise for our friends we'll be staying with in Anchorage these next few days...

So beautiful! And yummy too.

Speaking of 'housekeeping,' I was very excited to be given an apron as a holiday gift by some good friends. Phil and I had some fun shooting pictures featuring it (and nothing else) outside in the snow, but I'm feeling a little shy, so will just share a more 'modest' version.
Brrrrr!
We're off to Anchorage for a few days--will check in as I can.
much love

  2. What a gorgeous sunrise. Have fun in Anchorage! Are you going to hit up Natural Pantry? I always go there and New Sagaya for Thai coconuts when I make a trip to the big city. :)

  3. Yummy pie!

    Ha ha. I caught the part about the apron (it's cute, btw) pic being the modest version. Sounds like you two had fun :-)

  5. You took naughty apron photos?! I love it! Cheers to throwing caution to the wind. But damn, it must've been COLD out there!

  6. Yup, we had us some fun out there. But yes, it was about 8 degrees F--Phil would snap a few, then I'd say 'ok, I _have_ to go in now,' warm up, repeat...
