Beef broth is good for you
Squash soup recipe idea: Roast squash in oven until tender, cook in butter/ghee/oil in pan on stove, add beef broth, blend and if desired add creme fraiche when serving
Bones are full of nutrients.
Bone broth produces easy-to-absorb minerals from cartilage and tendons broken-down by a long cooking process.
A cup of broth gives me energy, boosts my immune system and soothes my digestion.

Privileged to meet #organic #cacao #farmers Hortência Pina and Adalberto Luis (CEO) of CECAQ-11 the farming cooperative from the island São Tomé off Africa at @wefeedtheworld #photography exhibition From 12 to 21 Oct at the Bargehouse @OxoTowerWharf - So many moving stories of traditional farmers growing food and healing the land some against huge odds such as multinationals forcing out communities and polluting their land. Dr Vandana Shiva @vandanashiva1 spoke at the launch: “Pesticides are instruments of war they have no place in farming.” She called on us to resist Monsanto, Bayer etc “the cartel of poison makers.” “Food is not a product but life itself,” she said. We have a “spiritual imperative to protect small farmers.” (at Oxo Tower Wharf) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo4LWiuHbia/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ksvpewaamd7i
Where Will We Live?
Where Will We Live? - a new verbatim play by Changing Face Collective - reveals the human stories behind the hyper-regeneration of Lambeth.

Premiered at the Southwark Playhouse 25 - 28 November 2015, all five performances were 100% sold out. Its success is testament to the concern local people have about rising rents and evictions - 90 council estates in London are threatened with demolition. Changing Face Collective gathered and transcribed 100s of interviews from people in Brixton and Lambeth housing estates and asked me to write the script. My first play.
I am a freelance journalist. I identified the main issues and grouped the material accordingly. The powerful stories leaped out and I caught them. I sifted the words for clarity and buffed for rhythm. My aim was to engage and inform a mainstream public. In collaboration with director Lucy Curtis and over several months (responding to what was thrown up in rehearsals as well as unfolding real-life events), we evolved a tight and textured verbatim play for seven actors playing 22 characters. These are people’s real stories, in their own words.
Lucy Curtis’s imaginative direction and the seven gifted actors - Ayesha Casely-Hayford, Ivana Mazza-Coates, Olivette Cole-Wilson, Christopher Sherwood, Hilary Derrett, Steven George and Tony Mcpherson plus musicians Jeremy and Pablo Paracchino - brought Where Will We Live? to life.
A word about the title. Originally inspired by film director, Spike Lee, arguing against the gentrification of New York, it came, out of the blue, from Marian (played by Ayesha Casely-Hayford) having to explain to her daughter about eviction:
“ “She was askin’ me ‘Mummy, why are we going to court?’.
I had to explain, ‘the landlord is trying to take us out of the house’, and she says, ‘Why?’
Then because she has seen the new buildings and she’s so excited, saying ‘Oh, are we moving into one of those houses?’
I said, ‘Well, that’s the question - and then she goes, ‘Well, where will we live?’ And I say I don’t know.’“

Why did ancient empires fall?
When elites are insulated from the consequence of their actions, they pursue their short-term interests "even though that may be bad for the long-term interests of the society, including the children of the elite themselves." Read more http://ab.co/1DlmgKc
Treetop protestors are protecting trees from being felled. Trees and prime agricultural soil to be destroyed due to inability of the elite to rethink a bus route.
We have, essentially, chosen cancer as the model of our social system. Capitalism’s grow-or-die imperative stands radically at odds with ecology’s imperative of interdependence and limit. The two imperatives can no longer coexist with each other; nor can any society founded on the myth that they can be reconciled hope to survive. Either we will establish an ecological society or society will go under for everyone, irrespective of his or her status.

Plants talk to each other using an internet of fungus
It’s an information superhighway that speeds up interactions between a large, diverse population of individuals. It allows individuals who may be widely separated to communicate and help each other out. But it also allows them to commit new forms of crime.
No, we’re not talking about the internet, we’re talking about fungi. While mushrooms might be the most familiar part of a fungus, most of their bodies are made up of a mass of thin threads, known as a mycelium. We now know that these threads act as a kind of underground internet, linking the roots of different plants. That tree in your garden is probably hooked up to a bush several metres away, thanks to mycelia.
The more we learn about these underground networks, the more our ideas about plants have to change. They aren’t just sitting there quietly growing. By linking to the fungal network they can help out their neighbours by sharing nutrients and information – or sabotage unwelcome plants by spreading toxic chemicals through the network. This “wood wide web”, it turns out, even has its own version of cybercrime.
Bristol Metrobus protest protecting trees and soil
Bristol Metrobus protest protecting trees and soil
Instead of running away to join the circus, I would join a protest camp: outdoor places of learning and purpose, infused with community spirit and love of the land, they give me hope.
I visited the Rising Up camp on Friday 13 February 2015.
The camp is protecting land and trees from a destructive and unnecessary road-and-bridge building scheme to create a bus route (Bristol needs more…

Coconut benefits banana bread
Coconut benefits banana bread
Funny to think that, as a child, I thought of coconuts as fairground shies, or Bounty chocolate bars. Yet coconuts are far more versatile than that.
Coconuts produce coconut oil, coconut flesh, coconut milk, and coconut water, naturally and healthily.
Like hemp, coconut is nourishing, health-giving, and practical too. Think coir matting.
Coconuts act as body moisturiser, teeth-cleaner,…

Diana Henry's salt beef
Diana Henry’s salt beef
Salt beef is a perfect meat for taking to a feast because it can be be prepared in advance and travels well.
It is ideal for a stress-free Christmas – no sweating over a hot stove all day.
Tender and aromatic, it can be served hot or cold with vegetables or salads. Or, traditionally, as a sandwich with mustard and pickles.
It is called salt beef because it is preserved (pickled) in salt a week…

Three birthday cakes
Artemi had given a clear brief for his birthday cake – an elephant with three balloons.
Like a good designer, I quizzed my client about his vision.
What colour for the elephant, I asked the soon-to-be three boy? And the balloons?
I paid a visit to a rare place (but lucky me on my very own high street): a traditional sweet shop, Scrumptiously Sweet, where the staff are trained to be kind and…

Honour the pumpkin
18,000 tonnes of edible pumpkin are thrown away every Halloween in the UK; that’s the equivalent of 1,500 double decker buses, according to the Independent.
Time to join the tweetathon using #pumpkinrescue hashtag.

Here are a few points from the manifesto.

Making sauerkraut
Sauerkraut is a traditional fermented food which produces probiotics, cheaply and naturally.
Probiotics are good bacteria which help good digestion, as Sacramento Natural Food Co-op explains.
“Fermented” food can sound a turn-off to our modern ears. But, for aeons, every traditional society has used lacto-fermented food – kimchi from Korea and cortido from Latin America, says Nourishing Days –…

Probiotic heaven
My delicate digestion is crazy for probiotics for their soothing and restorative effect. Probiotics? They are good bacteria which stop bad bacteria giving your gut a hard time (bloating etc).
Probiotics are not some new-fangled idea – every traditional society has its fermented ‘good bacteria’ food, such as sauerkraut.
Annie Levy (and the Guardian sustainable blog of the week) sent me a jar of…
