Learning the power of a Superfood diet.

Hi Guys
I would like to thank our wonderful emergency services who attended my very unfortunate accident on Tuesday. I would also like to give a big hug and thank you to Nancy the retired doctor who held my hand and reminded me how to breathe and the other lovely lady who stayed with me until the emergency services arrived. It reminded me that human nature and the touch of a hand can mean so much and calm a nervous system more than any drugs could have.
On Tuesday I was on my way to the gym for my weekly session with Chris Flemming at Impact Fitness in Carnoustie.
The tractors are out in Force on the back roads. I overtook a few and thought I was overtaking what appeared to be a stationary tractor when it began to move as I was passing it and then turned right in front of me into a small side road. It was too late and I went straight into its front tyre and ended up spinning, my life flashing in front of me and took out the d**e before stopping. Not a lot left of the car except the bit I was sitting in. Miracles can occur my friends, but not the way to test our good lord.
2 fire engines 2 ambulances and a lot of police cars were deployed to my aid. Luckily I was travelling with my equipment so thanks to an ex client fireman we hitched me up to my scenar and IR light at the scene whilst awaiting the ambulance and within 30 minutes I could move my neck and hip, which were quite painful, to exit the car unhurt. A first for the services, self treatment at an accident. I continued the treatment when I got home and happy to report no bruises no stiffness and back to work the next day.
So Guys Please be careful out there, the tractors are out and we all get frustrated behind them but stay safe. On our way home in the police car we saw a car overtake a tractor on a blind bend, much more careless than I was, which I duly pointed out and then the tractor stopped right in front of us without indicating, again not that careful.
I have been blessed to be still here to tell the tale and I am so grateful for the fact we have emergency services to help us and that our instinct as humans is to stop and offer hope and help. AI could never replace that.
Thank you Nancy and Thank you emergency services. ###X

Hi Guys
We have an exciting event to share with you all. You are invited to come over to mine and enjoy smoothies, soups and other delights with a hint of education of course. There are 15 places and the diary is open now (link below.) We will be using thelma the thermomix and her friends so you can have a look and see what she can do. Come along bring a friend we will love to see you.
Please note this is a thermomix demonstration not a cooking class.

We will be doing a cooking class for thermomix owners in November so if you already have a machine wait for that one as you will learn more advanced features.

Hi
Its foraging time where mother nature provides us with all the medicine we will need to get us through the cold and flu season.
I have been down the park collecting elderberries, rosehips and nettle seeds and with a little help from natural honey from the local bees or manuka honey I am preparing my immune system for the winter. I use Thelma to help me in the kitchen, to help me extract all the essential components from each ingredient but it's just as easy to use an old fashion pot.
Here are my favorite foragers showing you how to identify and use the best nature provides us with.
