Was such a warm autumn there’s still a bunch of flowers out there for the bees which is great to see. The last of the final leaves are falling off the tree, I do really love autumn. Not looking forward to winter but I think it’s a great time to build up immunity, rest, work on ourselves in many ways. So don’t forget to slow down in winter.

Time for me to dig up the Yacon. Yacon benefits include - Supports Gut Health: As a premium prebiotic, yacon promotes a healthy microbiome and aids digestion. It also helps relieve constipation.
-Regulates Blood Sugar: The inulin-type fructans in yacon can slow sugar absorption and help regulate insulin, making it a great natural alternative sweetener.
-Aids Weight Management: Yacon increases satiety and can help curb appetite.
-Improves Heart Health: Research indicates that consuming yacon FOS can help lower “bad” LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
-Boosts Bone Health: Yacon promotes the absorption of minerals like calcium and magnesium.

I’ve been very slack as my kids have got an older and not really baked much, I have never been great at baking sometimes it’s really hard to get motivated. But isn’t it great when you finally get into that frame of mind? I’m actually motivated! really pushing to get the family healthy again and off store bought breads and snacks. Sometimes it’s so easy to fall back into old ways. The sourdough is my third sourdough and it’s probably my best so far, I’m making some baguettes in the morning, I can throw them in the freezer for the kids, bone broth is done, these are some healthy gluten-free muffins no refined sugar just little homegrown honey and blueberries. And the tahini cookies are packed with calcium and goodness. These will help for my daughter’s lunches next week. I wish we could also motivated all the time. As I’m starting work next week for the first time in five months this accident was a real wake up into trying to look after my body as much as I possibly can. food

I have achieved one of my life goals, making my first ever sourdough bread. I have to say this is the best thing I have ever tasted. It’s not as pretty, as I hope to get much better in presentation. But wow, I can’t get over how delicious this is I have had sourdough before but nothing has tasted as good as this straight out the oven. I am now a huge fan..
