How to grow sprouts in a jar. Delicious and packed with nutrients!

Hi All!

Today, I am sharing a bunch of free books in my newsletter, including a very special book from a man who is saving cancer patients in India, just by talking to them! Interested to hear more? Scroll all the way down for my newsletter link!

And now, to tell you about this exciting new discovery I made…

I recently watched a video by nutrition expert Mike Adams about how to grow sprouts in glass jars and got so excited I immediately set out to find jars with suitable lids. I just had to grow sprouts in a jar! It looked so easy to do. Growing alfalfa seeds in particular seems to offer a wealth of health benefits.

Finding sprouting seeds online was easy, but the jar was a totally different story. It proved impossible to find glass jars with mesh (plastic or metal) on the lid. Once again, hubbie saved the day. He cut up the metal lid you can see here and added a sheet of plastic mesh. That did the trick to grow the sprouts twice, then the lid began to rust, which wasn’t good. So he made a ring out of plastic to use as a lid. Using brass nails he then attached some plastic mesh to the lid. This did the trick just fine.

Basically, I put a spoonful of organic alfalfa seeds in the glass jar, fill it with filtered water and leave it standing upright covered with a towel away from sunlight for 10 hours (the seeds should not be left to soak much longer).

I always start soaking the seeds in the morning. Then, in the evening (10-12 hours later max), I drain the water and put the jar upside down in a narrow container, a little tilted, in indirect sunlight. I use a strainer to sit it on, with a breakfast bowl underneath, and I rest it against a wall to be safe. Anywhere in a sunny room will do, as long as the sunlight doesn’t directly shine on the jar.

After that, twice a day, morning and evening (about 10-12 hours apart), I fill the jar with water and drain it immediately. I repeat 2-3 times to rinse the sprouts well, then leave the jar in its makeshift cradle upside down. That’s it.

You can start eating the sprouts after 4-5 days of doing this twice a day. I leave them for about 5-6 days in the jar in the way I explained, then I drain well and put them in a container in the fridge to enjoy in salads or sandwiches. They are delicious!

If I start eating from the jar, I cannot stop haha. They are so crunchy, a wonderful texture. Last time, I threw in a few broccoli seeds too (they have a slight kick) so I enjoyed a mix with the alfalfa seeds. It was very nice. Radish seeds are supposed to have a kick too, but I haven’t tried those yet. Always use organic, no matter what sprouts you go for.

You can watch Mike Adams’s short video HERE

I hope it will inspire you the way it inspired me.

Serving suggestion

This is a new book (only short, about 90 pages) and it is offered for free in my latest newsletter. Read it and you’ll never think of cancer (or any other dis-ease) in the same way again! This is a book by a very special Englishman, who learned a ground-breaking medicine method from a doctor and is now practicing it in India, working for free, saving the lives of terminally ill cancer patients that the medical system could help no more. All he does is talk to them… and this simple intervention saves their lives, somehow, thanks to this amazing medical practice that is still to be discovered by the masses. It sounds strange, I know, but it works!

The recipe I am sharing today is my father’s – and it’s cuttlefish stew with tubular pasta. You’ll find in it, however, useful notes if substituting the pasta with rice or potatoes. The sauce tastes divine, containing, among other things, red wine and bay leaf. The lemon juice added at the very end enhances the taste even further.

Chocolate mousse in a cup, a musical coconut, and freebies for all!

Watch me play the kalimba in this short Facebook video

He he. I can’t stop chuckling. Until December last year, I didn’t even know what a kalimba was. The kalimba (or ‘thumb piano’) originates from Zimbabwe, a musical instrument traditional of the Shona people.

It all started with a video ad on Facebook and instantly I was hooked! I had to get my hands on one, hoping to add some new joy to my life with its sweet sound. When I told Andy, my husband, he grew excited as he lived the first eight years of his life in Zimbabwe. He said the air was often full of the sounds of kalimba as people played in their homes. I was so glad to hear that, as I had purchased a second one, just for him, as an impromptu new year’s present. Finding out I’d bought him something that could help him recapture a fond memory of his childhood gave me even more joy to give it.

It was thrilling for both of us to unpack our kalimbas when they arrived at our door shortly after Christmas but the excitement quickly turned into disappointment.

Our kalimbas were out of tune! Plus, we had no idea how to tune them. However, we didn’t need to fret for long. My amazing hubby took action at once! The ‘amazing’ bit is well deserved, believe me. I am not just being partial here.

If you’ve been reading my emails for a while, you may recall that last year Andy made me a jewellery box using an ancient Japanese technique to blow-torch the wood. Or that he has restored an old motorbike that used to be only good for scrap, turning it into a glistening beauty that he is now pleased to ride back and forth to work. Still, his capacity to make anything he sets his mind to never ceases to astound me.

In a matter of five minutes, he had used Youtube to find out how to tune a kalimba. Then, he strode to the front door, announcing he was going to his shed, and I felt hopeful.

Under an hour later, he came back looking like the cat that got the cream, holding up this tiny hammer that he’d just made, using scraps of wood and metal that lay about in the shed (see photo above). I was so impressed! Then, he proceeded by tuning the kalimbas to perfection… I am still unable to believe it. And I feel so lucky. I mean, what do people do in this case if they don’t have a shed with an Andy in it? LOL

It’s been less than a month and I’ve already memorised 4 tunes in the kalimba in my spare time. I take just a few minutes a day to play and commit old and new key sequences to memory. And the joy I get from these few minutes last me all day. There is a plethora of Youtube videos for 8-key kalimbas so there’s lots more to learn.

Already, I am aspiring to get a 17-key kalimba later on as the sound on those is way better, plus the extra keys help to play more songs. I have my eye on a specific one already but I am delaying it until I have mastered this one first. I’ve always been ‘weird’ like that, I guess. Always delaying gratification and giving any endeavour a fair chance to bloom before I skip on to the next one 🙂 Besides, I am thinking, if my humble 8-key kalimba could only speak, it would no doubt ask me to give it enough attention so it can reach its full potential. And, if you’ve hit the video link above you will undoubtedly agree that I am nowhere near an 8-key kalimba virtuoso as yet haha

After making the little tuning hammer, Andy didn’t stop. Next thing I knew he was busy with a ‘secret project’, buying coconuts at the supermarket and a tiny dessert spoon set at a local thrift store.

So here you go. The fruit of his latest efforts is a musical coconut. Or, should I say, a dessert-spoon kalimba? LOL!

And even if it looks great… please… don’t ask me how it sounds. I haven’t taken out my ear plugs yet, just in case haha

To be honest, even though it got tuned okay, it sounds plain awful. It has to be ore steel, I guess, and the dessert spoons don’t cut it. But doesn’t it look pretty? And it keeps my man happy. Who am I to stop him?

Seriously, by now I am convinced that a good practice for a happy life is seeking joy every day… pleasing the child we all have inside. Nurturing it, pleasing it, and allowing it to ‘play’, can only reap benefits in our lives. The kalimba is working miracles on me, I’ll tell you that. And I hope you have your own little thing that makes you smile every day. I have noticed that I sing to myself all day since I started thumping on those little keys, and I am not in the least surprised!

These chocolatey desserts are quick and easy to rustle up at home and utterly delicious. The tang of the orange zest makes these little cups of heaven! I love how small they are – ideal for guilt-free treats if you’re minding your waistline like I do. And, what’s more… no cooking necessary. They become perfect after a few hours in the fridge. I use Greek coffee cups to make them, but you can also use espresso cups or other small ones you may have at home.

FREE spooky books, Hokkaido pumpkin soup and Greek ‘donkey’ weather

The ‘donkey’ summer in Greece continues…

Everyone knows the stereotype of the donkey that plants its hooves on the dirt and refuses to budge, right? And that’s why when the weather girl on TV mentioned the term ‘donkey summer’ the other day to describe our current strange weather, I nearly choked on my ‘tyropitaki’! Then I howled with laughter, seeing that I knew exactly what she meant. Turns out in their folk wisdom, the Greeks of old tended to call an Indian summer a ‘donkey summer’ and I was tickled to hear this term for the first time.

In Greek, we call it ‘Gaidourokalokero’ from the words ‘gaidouri’ (donkey) and ‘kalokeri’ (summer). Mamma Mia! fans, you obviously know the second word, LOL!

Indeed, this year’s summer refuses to budge, and it’s driving us all nuts at the moment. I have clothes laying out in my bedroom that belong to both my winter and summer wardrobe. It’s a mess. From one day to the next or even within the same day I don’t know what to wear if I’m going out. It’s not seldom to start my day in a light jacket, jeans and socks, only to be in a t-shirt, shorts and sandals in town by midday.

Weird weather for the end of October, that’s for sure! The really good thing is we don’t need to roll out the carpets just yet, or to fire up electric heaters or the central heating. The latter especially is a huge blessing. No complaints there, phew!

Check out today’s newsletter for the latest news from my life in Greece, a bunch of FREE spooky books, and my recipe for Hokkaido pumpkin soup to enjoy this Halloween!

The Raven Witch has a whole bag of tricks! Magic spells, bird shifters and romance on a Greek island. A suspenseful, spooky story with a good measure of sunshine. Episodes 1 and 2 are FREE for Halloween! Visit Amazon: http://bit.ly/2CZMlow

A beach picnic, Greek cats, and FREE books!

I had a wonderful name day (September 25 – St Effrosyni Day) doing 3 of the things I love the most: I swam (cold water but not cold enough to keep me away!), had a picnic on the local beach, and a nap under the pines.

The last thing was a bit tricky – lots of ants, and we got bitten a few times, then brought some of the ants home despite our best intentions to shake them off all our stuff LOL.

But, overall, it was an ace day. I hope to go back this weekend to do the exact same things – we anticipate the temp to crank up to 37 degrees C.

Fingers crossed! GO HERE to see all the photos from the picnic.

It’s not often one sees two cats eating in perfect formation haha. I swear I didn’t set it up. I saw Loulou and Sissi eating like this and had to pick up the camera. So cute. Check out my latest newsletter for more recent photos of my fur babies as well as a plethora of FREE books for all. GO HERE and enjoy!

FREE books, a beach vacation in Corfu and more Greek summer fun

Yowza! I had a hit of bad luck last month. I went on vacation to my granny’s house in Moraitika, Corfu for my annual summer break to find the old metal pipes had rusted and there was not a single drop of water! To cut a long story short, my intended 10-day vacation in Corfu (staying on my own for the most part at the house) ‘shrunk’ to the precious total of just 3 days staying at a hotel.

My husband, Andy, was planning to leave on the weekend anyway as he was starting work on Monday so I decided to return to Athens with him. At least, we know the house will be ready for us by next year as the plumber who informed us of the problem committed to changing the pipes for us this fall during our absence.

Best silver lining: We were lucky to get a room at Romantica at high season. Incredible! The owner, an angel of a man called Leftis, made us feel right at home. And he even gave us precious parting gifts of his own making. Low-acidity extra virgin olive oil and a skin cream made with organic herbs. A man of many talents!

We’ve enjoyed staying at Romantica so much that it actually makes me feel sorry to know I won’t be going back again. And for anyone who knows how much I value my granny’s little village house where I’ve been staying almost annually since the 70s that says a lot, LOL!

In the 3 days of our stay on the island, we had a couple swims in perfect, (jellyfish-free!) waters, including one in Messonghi, and enjoyed dinners at Jimmy’s (in Moraitika) and Bacchus (in Messonghi). Both, highly recommended if you visit the area.

GO HERE TO SEE NEW PHOTOS FROM THESE ALLURING CORFIOT VILLAGES THAT INSPIRE MY STORIES!

If you haven’t checked out my insider’s guide to the villages of Moraitika and Messonghi in south Corfu, go check it out now! They’re both small, idyllic and perfect for families and quiet couples. Lots of fun to be had, and they’re great starting points for exploring other wonderful areas too, even by pleasure little boats!

 

In my latest newsletter, I am sharing a bunch of FREE kindle books and the latest news from my life in Greece in a small seaside town near Athens. This time, I am sharing about a fun evening involving trained horses, an omelette made with 11,000 eggs, and a fab concert of Greek music. It’s all bound to put a smile on your face faster than you can say ‘spanakopitta’! Check it out!
