This post comes a little late in the month but like the title says…better late than never. I love these kinds of posts because I get to share things that I’m interested in, shopping for and cooking at the moment!

New Cookbooks

I definitely don’t need another cookbook, but in spite of that, I’ve purchased 2 new cookbooks and they are both great, Dinner For Everyone by Mark Bittman and Every Day is Saturday by Sarah Copeland.

That Which Hinders Your Task is Your Task

~ Sanford Meisner

That which gets in your way, holds you back or causes resistance just may be the task you need to focus on. In any endeavor, the task is learning to support yourself with encouraging thoughts and approaching it from a place of love. Love for yourself. Love for the task.

“It is by logic that we prove, but by intuition that we discover.” 
~ Henri Poincaré,

Health & Wellness

A new study from the journal Nature Microbiology suggests that after taking a round of antibiotics, “most bacterial species reappeared after around one and half months, but not everything returned to normal. At the six-month point the researchers discovered that nine common species of bacteria had still not reappeared in most of the subjects.” That’s a little frightening to me because I’m still taking an antibiotic (it’s been over a month) since I had my appendectomy and I know my digestive system is torn up. I started taking this probiotic from Sakara Life hoping to restore some of the “good” bacteria in my gut. This probiotic is the most complete probiotic I could find with 11 diverse strains and prebiotic fiber blend to enhance efficacy, formulated with candida-cleansing systemic enzymes and digestive enzymes to reduce bloat, 100% vegetarian capsule, and doesn’t require refrigeration.
