Making my own almond milk

Well, when I have an idea for a little project, I have to remember to give myself at least a week to accomplish the task. I am in the process of making my own almond milk!! I've soaked the almonds in water... I've had to buy agave syrup, fine mesh sieve and some glass jars from the shop. So as soon as kaspar wakes up I'll be able to get them out of the car and start the process! Gahhh! Sometimes I feel like I'm trapped indoors!! But all I need to do is lower my expectations and slowwww down a lot. It was really windy today... Kaspar and I were out and about today- geez it was a challenge. No shop had enough room in the aisles for a pram, no shop took eftpos, I had no cash, kaspar was screaming, I had to sit outside at a cafe with the really windyness with napkins and bags flying everywhere, my hair zooshing around and people staring at us. Oh my. So I just got in the car and put on classic fm and ate my ham roll, weeping- kaspar fell asleep...
Wow- I have only been a mum for 7 months now and i am still getting the hang of it all and keeping calm in the process.
When I go through these difficult times I think of all the other mothers out there going through a similar thing.

Disco Therapy

I am creating a place and a space for ANY BODY who feels like they want to move they're bodies, WITH OUT drugs, alcohol. We will be moving our bodies to some amazing music! The lights will be dim, the space will be creative, the people will be respectful and playful. These classes/sessions will take place in 107 redfern st, Sydney, In August 2012.
I will have a 1 hr class earlier on during the week to experiment with our own movement vocabularies. So, at the end of the week....at the 'free movers disco', you'll be more physically able and a bit more confident with your body.
Its so important to move with our bodies in a 'non structural' way- so that we can learn to access parts of our bodies (which includes our minds = emotions/nervous systems). Why do we want to access these parts? Because when we know more about ourselves...our relationships improve and our confidence improves. People forget about their hips and their legs. we are so caught up in our heads! so lets get disco therapying!!!! Whoever is interested...please keep on reading these blogs. There's more info to come~ Lets get into ourselves to get over ourselves!!!!!

bicarb of soda

ok. this is getting serious- you can virtually use bicarb of soda for everything!!!! its a natural deoderiser, facial exfoliant, it makes your hair shiny if you add with your shampoo, it makes things clean all over the house, wash your baby in it! drink some if you've got bad gas, put some on your fanny if you've got thrush, mix with vinegar for an amazing clothing powder, and the list chuggs along! Im a bit into it.
I used to spend soooo much dough on amazing beauty and household products that actually were a bit shit. so everyone! go out and buy some bicarb of soda for 99 cents and your savings and your life will change.
