Book: EATING CLEAN

My Detox Cookbook
EATING CLEAN—100 Appetizing Solutions Wheat- and Dairy Free
I wrote this book, a collection of 100 recipes and other helpful liver detox information, while ‘doing’ a liver detoxification regime in 2002. Recommended by my naturopathic physician, Dr. Sara Thyr, the 30-day dietary plan required the removal of wheat, dairy, caffeine and sugar from my diet. This was a pleasant change for my body, as I had been surviving on full-strength coffee with cream and sugar and lots of bread products. Inexplicable hair loss and a pervasive lack of energy had sent me to the doctor’s in the first place. I was willing to try this dramatic change in my diet if it meant I might ‘get my life back’.

Although the recipes are wheat-free, this was not designed as a cookbook for those living with Celiacs Disease. The muffin recipes ask for spelt flour, which does contain a measure of gluten. If you are Celiac or prefer to bake gluten-free, it is possible to replace the spelt flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Some additional adjustment of dry to wet ingredients may be required.

    I have recently begun this journey in my life… I’m embracing the clean eating lifestyle with open arms. I am a product of fast food, packaged foods and all around bad foods. Because of this I’m over weight and now having health problems. Nothing serious but I do take the fact that if I don’t do something now it will become serious. Anyhoo… just wanted to say thank you for your book, it is my new best friend. I myself have a blog for my many activities which now includes clean eating. Thanks again.

Thanks to @jonehallmark and @twohandspaperie I’ve Thanks to @jonehallmark and @twohandspaperie I’ve been introduced to paper cutting.

Sunday painting session with @innerpeaceartstudio Sunday painting session with @innerpeaceartstudio . The prompt was painted blobs. Despite cat #1 looking like a jazzed up potato, I could not stop! At some point in the flow I got the idea to paint some of the cats of my childhood. In the winter we burned paper trash in the fireplace to supplement what served as central heat in our very old house on Nantucket. Our (many!) cats and kittens would join us, huddled on the bricks to warm themselves, too. This funny little painting feels like the beginning of that writing project a couple of friends have been nudging me to start. Here’s looking at you @dianelesbecquets and @bettinacaserta ! What a fun — and surprising — day of painting. #artforwellness #watercolor #cats_of_instagram #memoir

“A Mother’s Story” told in four walls with needle, “A Mother’s Story” told in four walls with needle, thread and memory bits and found objects. These four walls are an interpretation of my mother’s life experience. The cloth houses were a craft workshop project, intended as decorative objects. Hand stitching is like a silent moving meditation for me. The motion of the hand stitching was the spark that launched this piece. So caught up was I with the storytelling bug that I stayed up stitching until I had completed two of these ‘memoir houses’.

Drawing and visiting, visiting and drawing, celebrating her new book, “Nearly Native A Nantucket Story of Adoption, Love and Luck.” Not to mention our friendship that dates back to 4th grade, when my family made the island our home. We made stamps with pliable erasers and found impressionable surfaces on her patio to ink. The green ‘dots’ in first pic were made by pressing the putty eraser onto a decorative metal shelf.
