the story of Leena Richards, a college student and a writer.
Think green, Leena thought. Think shamrocks, and grass, and mint ice cream.
It was well known that Professor Rands color-coded his grades. Green meant good, red meant bad. Not that he would describe it that way, but that was the basic idea. If he used a green pen to mark a paper, that meant it was above average, red meant below. Red meant you failed. Red meant you were screwed.
Leena was daydreaming as usual. She sat with her chin rested in her left palm, while she twirled a blonde lock of hair in the fingers of her right hand. Gazing out of the window at the sunny campus, her mind was far from the classroom. She wasnt a bad student, she was just too creative for her own good. Her mind was always wandering. Thats what makes me such a great writer, she would tell herself and others. Still, she daydreamed a lot.
Alright, Professor Rands spoke loudly, to rouse the dozing students. Class is just about over. I have your assignments from last week. Very good job, some of you! Others, you may need to work harder for the next one. Remember: this grade is not a large percentage of your final grade for the class. You still have time to catch up. Have a great weekend, everyone. If you have any questions, Ill be in my office later today.
Yeah right, Leena thought. It may not be important to my grade, but it still means a lot. Leena had worked on this particular assignment with extreme zeal. She even neglected her other classes, just to perfect this one.
Think green! Think evergreen, lime, anything green!
Leena walked up to the Professors desk, and rifled through the papers to find hers, along with the other students. She spotted her name, Leena Richards, and picked it up. She stuffed it into her notebook and walked out of class. She didnt want anyone else to see her reaction. This one meant a lot. She wasnt entirely sure why this one assignment was so important, it just was. It was a short story she had written, and she was particularly proud of it. Leena went through a multitude of emotions as she made her way through the halls toward the student parking lot. Im sure I did fine. I worked really hard, and I know it was good but what if the Prof didnt think so. What if he hated it? But, no, Im sure it was fine!
Finally, Leena arrived at her car. She opened the lock, and got inside. Taking a deep breath, she got out the paper, and turned to the last page. Her eyes turned down, to see red. She quickly searched the comments, seeing phrases such as lack of description and unclear thoughts and no sense of motivation.
Leenas eyes clouded over in anger and confusion. She could sense a hard lump forming in her throat as her vision clouded over. Her eyes were slowly forming tears, and all she could see was red. Red, like blood. A crimson wave blurred her vision. She was too angry for words.
Later that afternoon, Leena's mood had calmed only slightly. She made herself a cup of hot chocolate with tiny marshmallows, and sat on the bed in her dorm room. Posters offering wisdom and encouragement adorned her walls. Leena liked to be surrounded by positive thinking, and found posters like the cat hanging from a branch with the phrase Hang in There to be cute and uplifting. At the moment, however, the posters and the tea were of little comfort. Deciding that some measure had to be taken, Leena phoned Professor Rands at his office. She tried to be as calm as she possibly could, asking him about his comments on her failed assignment.
Im sorry, Leena. I cant change your grade. Your writing on this piece just isnt up to par. You move from one topic to the next with no clear transitions, its like you were daydreaming when you wrote it. Its okay, though. Its not that influential on the final grade. Just try harder on the next one.
Pacing around the room, Leena tried explaining her position to him, but she just couldn't make him understand. Finally, in defeat, she told him she was fine, she understood, and she hung up the phone.
Leena threw herself onto her bed, tears beginning to well in her blue eyes. She turned to her right side, curled up, and pulled her blankets around her. After a few long minutes of attempting to clear her mind of anger and frustration, Leena drifted off to sleep.
Dreamland offered no respite, however, and she spent the night tormented by dreams of red. Red, like thorny roses and monsters eyes. In her dreams, she kept falling, tumbling through whilrling senses, out of a red sky.
The next day, Leena actually felt a little better. She had even spent some time in the morning going over her assignment, trying to comprehend the comments made by Professor Rands. She did a small bit of editing, but overall, she felt that she really did a good job with the story. Maybe he just doesnt understand what the story is about. He probably doesnt get the symbolism of the colors, or something.
Suddenly, Leena had a thought. If she perhaps went to talk to the Professor, she could make him realize the meaning of the story. It was a Saturday; there were no classes today, but she happened to know where Professor Rands lived. It was only a few blocks from campus, and she had seen him walking to and from class often. He was actually a really nice guy, but she was seriously starting to doubt his teaching abilities.
As she neared his house, though, Leena started to have qualms about her decision. She hesitated at his doorstep, until she forced herself to knock. She heard a bit of rustling inside the house, and then he peeked out of the window. He opened the door.
Leena? Im surprised to see you here." He eyed her curiouisly. "Is this about your paper.
Um, yes, she replied.
"Okay, come on in. Maybe we should discuss this, if youre that upset about it. Professor Rands let Leena in, and closed the door behind her. I was just making some tea, would you like some?
Sure, that would be nice. Thank you. Leena walked with the Professor into his tidy kitchen. A quick look around told her that he was a very neat person, with an apparent affinity for barnyard animals. There were chickens and cows everywhere, decorating the spacious room.
I wanted to talk to you about my paper, because I just think that I worked so hard on it. And I was really proud of it. I think that maybe you just didnt understand some of it, and maybe if I could explain some of it to you, you might change your mind.
Professor Rands set down two cups of steaming tea on the kitchen table. He sat down at one of the chairs, while Leena sat at the opposite side of the table. He sighed deeply, with compassion in his eyes.
I'm sorry, Leena. My grades are final. I rarely change them after theyre given out. I just dont think that you were focused enough on this one.
But youre wrong! Leena said, her voice getting loud. You just didnt understand everything that I was trying to say!
Professor Rands stood up, walked to the cupboard and took another deep breath. Leena got up, too, and stood near him, next to the stove.
Leena, youre making far too big of a deal out of this. Maybe youre just not quite as good of a writer as you thought you were. You just need to work a little harder on conveying your thoughts and expressions into a story.
His words sliced into Leena. Her chest felt tight, and her jaw clenched in frustrated confusion. She looked away from him, and noticed the teapot. The green teapot. Green like leaves and emeralds. Green meant good things. Green meant you had done well, that you were on the right track.
Besides, its not that big of a deal. Its only a small portion of your final grade, Professor Rands pleaded.
Leena started to see red. Her vision began clouding over again, just like when she was in her car, when she saw the red writing. She became flushed; her senses were dulled, yet heightened at the same time. She thought of roses, red roses. Once when she was little, she was playing near a rose bush near her grandmothers house. The roses were so beautiful that she wanted to pick them. But she found out that roses have thorns. She pricked her thumb, and cried at the sight of the blood, thrashing her arm out, so that it was difficult for her grandmother to take care of the small cut.
Red, like blood. Leena had blacked out for a few moments, daydreaming of roses and blood. Her hand hurt. Leenas vision suddenly cleared, from a piercing scream, and a feeling of searing pain. She looked down and saw that she was clutching the green teapot. Her hand had touched the metal that was still hot from the boiling water. She dropped the teapot onto the floor, and then she saw the red. And the blood. She noticed a large dent on the bottom of the heavy, metal teapot.
Leena looked onto the floor, next to the green teapot, and next to the growing pool of red blood. She saw Professor Rands, lying motionless on the floor.

Models & Urban Decay juxtaposes models against an environment of urban, abandoned, and mostly forgotten locations.
I initially began working in these locations because I felt they served as a visually stimulating counterpoint to the model. Over time, I became interested in each decayed, rusty place as a subject in its own right, a relic of our recent past. I would occasionally come across evidence of previous inhabitants—a hand-written memo, a company picnic sign-up sheet, or perhaps a typed letter of reprimand from boss to employee—and find myself imagining the scene as it once must have been, alive with bustling workers and cranking machinery.
When I explore a location for the first time, I am often struck by the extent of the decay that occurs over a relatively short period. It is an apt testament to the fleeting and delicate nature of youth, and so I can think of no more appropriate environment in which to memorialize youthful energy, beauty, and vigor. Frozen in the photograph, the model is the statue of a modern ruin.

Book 1 in a series of Christian perspectives… a collection of poetry to inspire your heart. Journey with me in my walk with God through the intricacies of life, as I delight in the moments of His pleasure, peace, release and rest. This is a personal journey of the unconditional and uncomplicated love of God, His compassion, His acceptance, His strength, His grace and His inspiration.
A simplistic view of worship, fellowship, faith and victory. As I embrace my Saviour with the sweet fragrance of adoration and trust, He guides me towards a deeper relationship with Him, encouraging new beginnings and aspiring new heights.
Through Jesus I have gained insight, understanding and awareness of God working in my life to beautify my spirit and reconcile me and us all to Himself. His promises are true and available for us all, if we would but ask.
Luke 1:37 (NKJV) 37 For with God nothing will be impossible."

"Obama's Wars" Shaping Politics in Pakistan
Politics in Pakistan is being shaken up due to some bewildering statements made by high-level Pakistani officials that were quoted in Bob Woodward's new Book "Obama's Wars." The published comments raise serious questions about the officials' motives and judgment about permitting US military operations within Pakistan's borders. The revelations are an embarrassment to Prime Minister Gilani and the Foreign Minister who have been vocal in criticizing US cross-border operations, even though many comments and decisions were made before Parliament assumed power in Pakistan. The shockwaves have just begun to ripple through Pakistani politics.

China Expected to Assert its Dominance
An unnamed senior U.S. defense official reportedly said China appears to be backing away from its descriptions of territorial disputes in the South China Sea. However, China is expected to build 30 vessels during the next five years for marine law enforcement. A softening of language or other gestures are tactical adjustments for a near-term benefit, but signify no substantive change. China is on a path to assert and demonstrate its dominance in Asia, evidenced by ambitious naval construction, expanding naval operational areas and expansion of the law enforcement fleet. This is a strategic warning that maritime confrontations will increase in both volume and frequency.

Japan to Import Uranium via Trans-Siberian Railroad
According to Japanese Economy and Trade Ministry officials, Japan plans to import Russian-processed uranium fuel from Kazakhstan via Siberian railways. The language of the announcement indicates the new transportation route is an effort to avoid piracy risks to Japanese maritime vessels. The ministry plans to begin using the land route by April 2011. While the Trans-Siberian Railroad does mitigate threats from piracy, it also allows Japan to avoid shipping via the South China Sea which China now claims as territorial waters. In the next few years, Japan may be expected take other actions to reduce its vulnerability to Chinese interdiction.

375 mL bottle from batch 5, poured into my Duvel tulip.
Cuvee de Castleton pours a golden yellow, with a good amount of clarity. Maybe a finger and a half of white foam caps the beer, before fading quickly and without leaving any lacing behind. The nose has lots of white wine-like acidity. There's also a distinct oakines present, and just a hint of brettanomyces funk. There's just a touch of fruitiness right on the front end of each sip. As with the nose, a vinous tartness fills the lion's share of the flavor profile. A tropical fruit like brett funk provides a nice bookend around the acidity, before a light oakiness fades in for the finish. The mouthfeel's a little slick. The combination of a slightly heavy body, and carbonation that's a little bit dull just misses the mark. Despite one or two technical flaws, Cuvee de Castleton still comes together stunningly well. Muscat grapes, oak barrel aging, and brettanomyces all come together to produce a great wild ale.

Pours a straw yellow color without much of a head. Nose is grapes with a lot of lemon and sours and a lot of Brett funk. Taste starts off with sour lemon flavors that fade to a funky Brett musk. Some soft muscot grapes in next but are pushed aside by more lemon sourness. Mouth is pretty good. Overall this is a decent American wild. I don't know if it is worth the ammo, but pretty delicious.

Batch 5, courtesy of of mrand01.
Pours a translucent golden dark yellow with zero head. Zero; no bubbles. Some mild lacing if I swirl the beer a little.
The aromas remind me of champagne straight off the bat. Vinous white grapes, tart granny smith apple and oak. Funky Brett emerges more as it warms with some mild barnyard and earth, like a wet piece of wood.
The flavors directly follow the nose, but are definitely more complex and enjoyable. Sweet pale maltiness alongside a mild of lemon sherbet with a pop of bright acidity. Vinous muscat grapes with lingering honeydew melon juiciness and subtle funky flourishes of Brett. As it warms you get emerging notes of spicy oak.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a lower than expected amount of carbonation. I expected more for the style. The finish is dry and acidic with a final bump of tart fruitiness.
Overall this is a great American Wild Ale. It's not the best I have ever had but it is definitely not a slouch by any means. I feel I would like it better if the ABV was a little lower and the carbonation was bumped up a little. A little unbalanced but extremely drinkable and one of my new favorite wild ales that skews towards the white vinous flavor spectrum.

Bottle thanks to bigsexy410, thanks Ben. Batch 5.
The look is on par for a wild, it has a nice straw yellow color with little head or lacing whatsoever. Hazy and pretty much opaque.
The smell has a heavy white grape aroma with a great tart wild yeast overtone to it that is very cohesive, especially for a sour. Some more welch's grape flavors as well.
The taste follows the smell, with some great dry white grape flavors with a very refined sour flavor, that isn't really in your face but is very elegant overall and certainly tart enough for a sour head. The flavor plays out with some sweetbread and tart flavors, like a nice pastry blend. Quite nice.
Mouth is very dry and decently carbonated, some body to it.
Overall the beer is nice, worth a buy if you're in NY.

Review 500!
Pours clear gold with little head and lots of bubbles.
Lots of white wine notes in the aroma. Some lemon, pear and a bit of funk. Not overly sour on the nose.
Flavor is similar. Lots of sour apple and lemon up front. Finishes with a lot of white wine, heavy oak and nearly bone dry. A little bit of a funky flavor on the back end too.
Light mouthfeel with adequate carbonation.
Pretty good, but doesn't compare to some other highly rated sours I've had lately. The funky aftertaste isn't bad, but isn't my favorite either. Would drink again although I'll save my trading ammo for stuff I like better.

30th Birthday Party
Shared by Callmecoon
App- Glowing golden yellow with zero head or cling. A few bubbles around the edges.
Smell- A great wild ale. The booze levels are incredibly hidden with a lot of sour on the nose with some oaky lemon fruits. The tart level really balanced the lactic out. Smooth and tasty with a small white wine tannin note.
Mouth- A bit of a light medium with a fairly medium carbonation level. A bit of grape and lemon residual flavors.
Drink- A damn fine wild ale. Great layers and very smooth. Thank you Steve for sharing.

Batch 5.
Pours a murky light yellow with no head and no lacing. Smell is sour, tart, and funky with some sour grape and woody aromas. Taste is much the same with some woody flavors and a super sour and acidic quality on the palate. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is an excellent sour with some very well done aromas and flavors.

Thanks for opening this with me, Jordan!
(Aged for 6 months)
Cloudy bright yellow and a small white head that leaves the glass spotted with lace.
Incredibly powerful aroma of white grapes, lemon, oak barrel, and big levels of tart and sour. Awesome, impressive, and exactly what I was hoping for.
The flavor too is wonderful and very similar to the aroma. There's lots of lemon, a mild funk, a good amount of oak, big sour notes, along with some white grapes.
Medium bodied with high carbonation.
A joy. Simply incredible.

Batch number five bottle. A very clear beer with golden color. Not hazy at all as others have described. Oh wait, I guess pouring the last half was. No head.
Aroma is funky, vinous and cidery.
Tastes like sour apple, grapes, lemon, some funk. Very delicious. On the second pour with the yeast (or maybe as it warms) I am picking up some more floral components and some spice, but hard to pin down what.
I cracked this bottle for my 30th birthday and what a treat. Always nice to have a sour of this caliber.

4.5/5 rDev +2.3%
Batch 5. Pours a very hazy, slightly murky golden color with a small white head that diminishes to aggressive carbonation bubble almost instantly. Scent is immediately funky with some Brett and sour aroma. Nice white grapes with a lot of lemon and some other citrus fruits. A bit of saison-like peppery aroma as well. Also some sweet, fruit snack aroma. Very good nose on this one. Taste is very tart and sour at first...very lovely chardonnay characteristics. The spices definitely come through in the flavor, which is what I think separates this one from the other American sour wild ales. Stays very tart with each sip, but nice, sweet green and white grape flavor on the back of the tongue. Tingly tart pucker on the tip of the tongue. Lovely oak and white wine flavors. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, crisp, puckering at times, and somewhat fizzy. Drinkability is very high. Overall, this is a very well-crafted sour wild ale. Drinks like a 5% sour...would never guess it's almost double that. Great complexity and flavor. The spices in it bring together two of my favorite styles swimmingly, saison and wild ale.

Batch 5, courtesy of rlmartin
A: Poured into my Drie Fonteinen glass with no head, but active bubbles. Looks like sparkling apple juice.
S: Mouthwatering lemon & apple aromas, with wine character like a minerally chablis or sauvignon blanc. Little whiffs of funky barnyard.
T: Quite tart on the tip of the tongue, and an explosion of fruits from kiwi to pineapple to melon with a singing acidity tying it all together.
M: Light and effervescent with moderate linger.
O: First, I absolutely wouldn't guess this was 9%. Tastewise, I'd put this on part with some of the best gueuzes I've had. Definitely at the pinnacle of American Wilds. I do wish the aroma had a little more going on, but it may be that this glass isn't showing it as well as possible.

4.23/5 rDev -3.9%
Most recent batch poured into a tulip.
Soft cream colored yellow with just a ring of foam that dissipates quickly after a few sips. Some chill haze to the beverage, with some spotty bubble dancing to the top.
Sharp acidic aroma to this with hints of fruit like green apples and muscat grapes. A bit of white wine and barrel as well, but over all it is a very sour smelling beer.
Unripe grape juice and lemon juice on the tongue at first then moves into a sweeter fruit like flavor with some vinous notes. Delicious stuff.
Sticky at first with a little bit of drying on the finish, medium bodied and a tingle of carbonation.
Great use of the muscat grapes in a wild ale. Glad to have tried this one, it did not disappoint.

We are a small rugged indie team from Queensland, Australia. Here you can find information and updates about the games we are working on.

Good news Linux users! We have the current Winter Maw build running on your system. We'll have it tested soon and fingers crossed it'll be playable enough to include in the demo testing packs.
This past week has mostly just been internal testing again, deciding on level size and tweaking the enemies to be more challenging. We've also fixed up a bunch of the terrain issues that testers were experiencing, fixed the score system and the enemy alert system. Things are looking good!
0 comments by CoffeeInfused on Aug 11th, 2014
We're back for another weekly update!
First off, hello new followers! We hope you stick around to see Winter Maw completed. Thanks for following, you can also see our progress on Facebook if you have it.
Secondly, we've been doing a lot of internal testing lately, including a working Mac build. And I don't want to sound biased, but I personally have been enjoying the game. Even the jump scares and enemy encounters are still getting me. The need to win is strong too. We can't wait for you to play it.
Finally, we're started mocking up bits and pieces for the official trailer. The pictures here are a few things I found when playing the other day, just to give you a little look at where we're at now, compared to where we were a few months ago.
As a team we're getting a little bit excited now seeing everything come together. Have a great week! Look out for more pictures at the end of the week from more testing rounds.

Good news, everyone!
We're adding more of a story to Winter Maw (previously Project: Whiskey Chaser). This was probably the biggest request throughout all stages of testing so far. Users want a story to uncover. So we've teamed up with a local horror writer, Ghoul Shadows, in order to do this. You can see some of his work here.
We're looking forward to seeing what he can come up with and hope you are too!
Get excited for November 29 when Winter Maw will be released and Ghoul's story can be uncovered!

After a few weeks of testing, trailering and getting users to vote on names we finally have a decision!
Coffee Infused are proud to announce that "Winter Maw" will be released on November 29 this year.
Until that time we will continue testing and fixing. We're still waiting on a few more fixes and then a demo will be available for online users to test.
We hope you're excited as we are to finally see things coming in place.

Hello Hello!
We've spent the last two weeks testing like crazy. The Needle-Jack system is so far a success, users are thankfully happy to have some guidance as well a little more of a challenge from it. The Antagonist has been changed around a bit and was also met with great feedback. We haven't done a whole lot lately apart from bug fixes and altering the few things from the week before's testing sessions.
A feature lock is imminent as we begin to finalise everything for the last lot of testing. Ideally we'll be releasing around October or early November. Still hoping to get a demo up asap.
We'd like to give a big thank you to everyone who took the time out of their weekends to come and help us out. We'd also like to give a big THANK YOU! To Evocca College in Brisbane for having us come in to talk to the students and also test with them. You have all been a huge help.
Don't forget you can view the trailer here and vote on a name here.
Have a great week/weekend/start of new semester to all of our Australian uni pals.

This week we come bearing gifts in the form of Needle-Jack implementation. Here you can see the Needle-Jacks in the level, the rest of the images are in the "Images" tab. As well as that we have the elusive door in the "Videos" tab! The Needle-Jack will guide you to the door as your means to escape.
On another note, the trailer is finished! So look for that next week, as well as the opportunity to help us decide on a name for this project.
Have a fun week, enjoy the school holidays if you're lucky enough to be on them.
PS. If you live in Brisbane and want to help us out with some testing swing me a message to this account or "Like" our Facebook page —->HERE<—- for more information on the Beta testing day coming up.

Hey Guys,
Not a lot to report this week. We're fine tuning the teaser trailer, which will show off some game play and a little of our soundtrack. We've started plans for the next testing day. Right now it's set for the 12th of July. So you can all expect a demo to play a little while after that date. This time we'll be testing the Needle-Jack system and the new direction of escaping over continuously running until you can't run anymore.
We can't wait to show you all the improvements and let you try it for yourself.
Have a great week,
Coffee Infused

Happy Tuesday, aka Needle-Jack Day! So here's a better look at the system, this will be nice and quick. Firstly, colours and textures are done! This will give a clearer example of how it will look in game, distinct colours against the white snow. Secondly, these things are HUGE, crazy tall structures towering above you going from the cliffs to inside the maze. Finally, how you make it all work. The objects with the blue screen will be in the maze with the player, these are the operation panels. Turning on one of these activates the pumps which will pull all of the fog out of the maze. This will also activate the lights, which come on in succession. The lines of lights are situated on the cliff tops above the player, guiding them to the mother of all towers, the escape point.
In other news, after fixing up some things and adding in some other things we're finally recording and editing the teaser trailer. So look out for that soon, for real this time.
Have an amazing week Pals!
Ps. There's a few more images in the images tab.

Hello Friends!
We hope you're having a wonderful Monday, a public holiday for those of us in Australia. We've made some changes in the past week. Notably, rather than running for your life you're now running for your life towards an exit. That's right, Project: Whiskey Chaser now has a clear and attainable goal.
In order to help you reach the exit we've implemented the "Needle-Jack" system (pictures below). In a nutshell the Needle-Jack system works like guiding lights. They sit on the cliff tops reaching high into the sky, encouraging the player to look up as they go. There are one to three lines connecting the lights and each line has a limited amount of fuel/time that it can be on for. The player turns these on by finding the corresponding operation panels found throughout the labyrinth. Rather than just lighting a path to the exit, the Needle-Jack also pumps out the fog from the labyrinth enhancing visibility. However when the fuel runs out the fog reappears and the lights go out, returning the labyrinth to its original state.
Based on testing feedback we believe this will greatly improve the player experience, ensuring the player always knows what to do next in order to beat the game.
Have a fantastic week guys, we're going to go and enjoy the rest of our Monday off.

First off a massive Thank You! to everyone who came to test with us last week. We had a lot more people show up than we anticipated which was fantastic. We cannot thank everyone enough for taking time out of their weekends to come along.
We've got our list of improvements ready to go which I'll talk a little about later. For now we're fixing the usual bugs that occur during alpha testing, environments not looking right, sound messing up and broken skyboxes.
Game specific things we're looking at improving are the obstacles that are meant to slow you down, the AI being a lot faster and more intimidating and altering the sounds to improve the overall atmosphere.
As well as that we're looking at upping the challenge, as some of testers were a little too good at avoiding everything in the game. You can potentially look forward to more enemies, tenser moments and new goals.
Once again thanks to everyone for their feedback, we really appreciate it and hope you all enjoyed yourselves.

the website has a warning, though.
My arm really hurts around where I got my meningitis vaccine wouldnt it be funny if my arm just fell off.
Edit; Apparently this is normal. :( I was hoping it was like an infection or something.
My leg started hurting a couple days ago and I couldn't figure out why because i was only just walking around but then I remembered that I lept down onto a pile of rocks during when I was walking around so it was probably from that

Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies
Posted on July 29, 2011
These peanut butter cookies are gluten free, grain free and vegan to boot. I based them on Heidi's Peanut Butter Cookie recipe over at 101 Cookbooks, one of my favorite websites. Though I did cut the amount of sweetener in half and make a couple of other changes.
I have been on a bit of a peanut butter kick lately. I didn't eat peanut butter for a long time. I just didn't feel great when I ate it, however, I'm feeling ... read more →

I discovered this hot cereal on Ricki Heller's blog, Diet Dessert and Dogs, after she tweeted it a couple of days ago. I've had it for my gluten free breakfast every day since! You can call it hot cereal or porridge, either way, it's a superfood way to start your day, and quick and easy at that. What is porridge? According to Wikipedia, porridge is a dish made by boiling grains such as oats or other cereal meals in water, ... read more →
Peanut Butter and Jelly Cookies
Posted on July 18, 2011
Last night I had a hunkering for gluten free peanut butter cookies. I went over to Elise's site, Simply Recipes, and found a yummy looking recipe for gluten-filled Peanut Butter Cookies. I experimented a bit, made a couple of changes to her recipe and came up with a nice gluten free cookie dough. I then decided that it might be fun to make a gluten free peanut butter and jelly cookie.
So here you have it, high protein, gluten free peanut ... read more →
Apricot Power Bars
Posted on July 14, 2011
These healthy and simple energy bars are packed with energy.
Apricot Power Bars are a great grab and go breakfast or the perfect pick me up on the way home from the gym. Kid-friendly (with white chocolate) and Paleo-friendly (with dark chocolate, or no chocolate at all) I've made these gluten free bars each and every way.
I used white chocolate chips from my local Whole Foods when I made these for the boys. The chips come in a little unmarked ... read more →
Iced Ginger Chai
Posted on July 7, 2011
I love a good cool, yet spicy drink in the summer. This Iced Ginger Chai recipe is based on one of my favorite products, Bhakti Chai. It's heavy on the ginger, cardamom and black pepper which I love.
While I love Bhakti Chai, it does not like me; there is way too much caffeine in this drink for my body type (vata). Even the decaffeinated product contains small amounts of caffeine, so in my version, I use roiboos tea as ... read more →
Coconut Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
Posted on July 5, 2011
This Coconut Chocolate Chip Ice Cream is the perfect refreshment for a hot summer day. Since every child in the neighborhood seems to be at my house at present, bouncing on our trampoline, it is going to make the perfect afternoon snack in a few short minutes.
It's fun (and super easy) to make dairy free ice cream from coconut milk. Low in sugar, and high in protein and good fat, I feel great about feeding it to the gang.
Popsicles from Simply Sugar & Gluten-Free
Posted on June 28, 2011
Summer is definitely here and our house is the place to be. The neighborhood boys congregate on our trampoline –with the sprinklers aimed at it for a good cool down and a great deal of healthy fun.
With all of this activity I keep the food flowing morning, noon and night. From the time they arrive until dinner (sometimes a bunch of them stay for the evening meal too) I am setting out munchies –snacks, lunch, etc. They really are a ... read more →
Espresso Fudge Brownies

I was working my way through the Cook's Illustrated website the other night and came across an amazing recipe for Triple Chocolate Espresso Brownies. As soon as I laid eyes on that recipe I knew I had to create a high protein, gluten free version. While my husband enjoys all of my gluten free chocolate recipes, this is his fave. He even left a special love note on the fridge for me late last night after sampling them.
Of course this ... read more →
Chocolate Almond Joy Bars
Posted on June 10, 2011
These gluten free Chocolate Almond Joy Bars were inspired by Carrie of GingerLemonGirl.com who wrote a recipe for Almond Joy Impossible Pie. Who doesn't like the combination of chocolate, almonds and coconut in the form of a high protein, gluten free treat?
I don't generally discuss nutrition because I assume most people who find this site know that that my recipes are different than most other gluten free offerings. Ingredients such as almond flour and coconut flour do not compare to ... read more →
Ginger Lime Mocktail

Spicy ginger and tart lime team up to make a mean mocktail.
I don't drink alcohol, however, I absolutely love fun, girly drinks in fancy glasses. Hence, this deliciously refreshing, non-alcoholic beverage that I am calling a Ginger Lime Mocktail. I think you could also call this sparkling zesty drink liquid superfood. The ginger is full of anti-oxidants, good for digestion and is also anti-viral and anti-fungal. The lime juice is packed with Vitamin C and bioflavanoids.

Garlic Ginger Bok Choy

Sesame Salmon Burgers

These high protein Sesame Salmon Burgers pair nicely with Garlic Ginger Bok Choy (pictured in background of photo above; stay tuned for recipe next week).
I really like making these quick and easy gluten free burgers because they not only consist of highly nutritious wild salmon (obviously), they're also packed with superfoods such as garlic, ginger and sesame seeds. Sometimes I like to prepare the salmon mixture ahead of time (think the night before, so that the flavors can meld into ... read more →
Chocolate Cranberry Power Bars
Posted on March 29, 2011
This recipe was adapted from one by Pam Vagnieres' in an article called Make Your Own Protein Bars that ran last year in my local newspaper The Daily Camera. These high protein, gluten free power bars are easy to make and remind me of a Lärabar, though these are super fresh since they're homemade, and they're also not quite as sweet.
My boys and their friends loved these bars and gobbled them up during spring break, when our house was boys ... read more →
Gefilte Fish
Posted on March 23, 2011
This recipe is based on one by Ellyn Goodrich at epicurious.com, called "Alaskan Halibut and Salmon Gefilte Fish Terrine." While Goodrich's recipe makes a gefilte fish "loaf," mine is for traditional (yet gluten free) gefilte fish balls (like my Bubby made) only with more vegetables, so that they are a bit lighter and healthier than the standard gefilte-fare.
What are gefilte fish? Here is Wikipedia's definition:

Green Eggs
Posted on March 14, 2011
When the boys were little we used to have green eggs for breakfast everyday. They grew out of that phase a while ago and now I think this Green Eggs recipe is perfect for St. Patrick's day.
Now when I make these, I serve them with chicken breakfast links and my Dark Rye Bread (as shown above). Green eggs are a colorful, fun, super healthy, hearty way to get in green veggies at the start of your day. You can also ... read more →
Orange Ginger Sauce
Posted on March 8, 2011
I like to serve this delicious Orange Ginger Sauce with the gluten free Chicken Fingers from my book, The Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook. It's sweet enough that my children enjoy it and gingery enough for me –a perfect condiment for the entire family. I also like to dip steamed broccoli into this sauce. I hope you all enjoy it as much as we do!
With all of the cold weather we're having here in Colorado, I've been relying on ginger quite ... read more →
Muesli Scones
Posted on March 4, 2011
Did you know that I am obsessed with all things muesli? I have a recipe for muesli bread in my book, and I make just about everything else I can with muesli. While traditionally muesli has oats in it, I make mine grain free, as I follow as diet that is very close to Primal/Paleo.
So what exactly is muesli? According to Wikipedia, it is a "popular breakfast cereal based on uncooked rolled oats, fruit and nuts. It was developed around ... read more →
Dandelion Root Coffee
Posted on February 22, 2011
With March approaching, I'm starting to think about the possibility of a spring detox and one of my favorite healing roots –dandelion. Dandelion is a fantastic liver cleanser and spring is the perfect season for liver support.
According to Ayurveda and Chinese medicine, dandelion root has bitter, sweet and cooling properties, making it optimal for the pitta dosha.
Although I use various parts of the dandelion for healing, here, I'm focusing on the root which is a good blood purifying herb. ... read more →

Rugby season begins! This Saturday it is full competition for all Seniors & u16s/u17s - all those teams playing at Woongarrah against Warnervale (v Ourimbah in u17s). It is a tough start to the season with the longest trip to play against a Club that had its best ever season in 2013. In the Juniors there are 7s gala days at Kariong for 13-15s, Heazlett 10-12s and Ettalong 7-9s. Lots of fun to warm up for the start of their competitions on 26 April.
16s-9:00, 17s-10:10, 19s: 11:20, 3s-12:30, 2s-1:40, 1s-3:00
Good Luck to all the Sharks on Saturday!
Reminder about Junior group training .. u16 and u17s 5:30-6:30 and u12-u14 5:00-6:00
All other teams training as notified by your managers, their details are on the team pages using menu on the left
Competition for u16s & u17s kicks off on 5 April. All younger ages play 7-a-side gala days on 5 & 12 April (same as last season), with first competition games on 26 April
"Boys, for the next 6-7 weeks prior to the season we are not allowed by council on Heazlett Park. As such we have organised the Central Coast Adventist School next to Erina Fair for Thursday night training. This comes at a cost to the club but we think it is vital in our preparation for the 2014 season. Entry to the school oval is off Karalta Road Erina, down past Harvey Norman to the end of the street. The school gates will be open and the oval is right there. There are a couple of parking spots inside the gates and the rest on the street. Bring boots and joggers. Training will be set up ready to go at 7 as we have to be off the oval at 8.
Cheers boys

Rugby at Avoca is still amateur and can only continue with the support and help of many volunteers. Organising and fielding 4 senior and 11 junior teams is not an easy task. There is a great need for canteen helpers, and the Juniors always welcome ground marshalls, assistant team managers & first aid people. The vacancies aren't limited to those areas, if you would like to give a little of your time, there are many other roles available.
Get involved with the Club, it is the sporting heart of Avoca - be a part of your team. Please contact:

Cung Le is the latest addition to the fighter roster for the upcoming EA Sports UFC video game, which is set to be released in the Spring of 2014. Le is one of the most entertaining strikers in mixed martial arts, so his presence will bring an added dynamic to the game.
On Tuesday, EA Sports unveiled a screen shot of Le's in-game character.
- Nickname: NA
- Record: 9-2-0
- From: Saigon, Vietnam
- Fights Out Of: San Jose, CA, USA
- Age: 41
- Height: 5'10" (177 cm)
- Weight: Weight: 185 lbs (84 kg)
- Strengths: Striking, Takedowns
A gifted striker possessing some of the most powerful kicks in his division, Cung Le stepped onto the pro MMA stage for the first time in 2006. After debuting with Strikeforce, building a record of 7-1 and briefly holding their Middleweight title, Le made the jump to the UFC in 2011 likening his contract with the company to getting his black belt in MMA. The Taekwondo black belt, most recently scored an impressive KO victory over Rich Franklin and is currently the Mentor and Chief Coach of The Ultimate Fighter: China.
The roster for the upcoming game continues to grow by the day, so it is going to be interesting to see how many fighters are included in the final roster.
Most of the screenshots for the game have looked incredible, but we will need to see how the gameplay is before determining whether or not this will be the best mixed martial arts video game that we've ever had on the market. So far, it is looks like the answer of that question will be an overwhelming yes.

DOVER, Del. - Police are looking to identify four suspects, in the armed robbery of a Dover gas station on Tuesday.
Dover Police say the incident happened just before 10:15 PM, at the US Gas Station, on Bay Road at South Little Creek Road. According to the report, four male suspects went into the store through the front door, each wearing a hooded sweatshirt, gloves, and disguises over their faces, armed with multiple weapons, including a handgun and a sawed off shotgun. Police say they demanded money from the clerk, and fled with an undisclosed amount.
No injuries were reported from the incident. Authorities say they are hoping that the unique pattern on the white sweatshirt on one of the suspects, along with his shoes, will help in identifying the suspects in this crime.
Anyone with information about this incident, is asked to contact, Dover Police Department at 302-736-7111, or Delaware Crime Stoppers at 1-800-TIP-3333. Tips can also be sent anonymously online, through the Tip Submit website.

DeWayne Jackson - Who Is He?
Artist: DeWayne Jackson
Producer: Donnie Houston
Album: Halftime EP
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 4 total votes )
Some of you might stream this new, breezy single and ask, "Who Is He?" First, I would reprimand you for missing the artist's last Booth feature, January's Bike & a Dream, and then I would tell you that his name is DeWayne Jackson and that he hails from this place called Houston (Any good hip-hop from there?). Jackson has a casual, charismatic style and some clever, fun lyrics to match. His easygoing, fun-loving approach is perfectly matched to producer Donnie Houston's airy beat, which oozes a summery, top-down cruising vibe. If you liked the one-two punch of Jackson and Houston, good news: the pair have a collaborative project, Halftime, in the works, which is slated for release this summer.

Greek Fest ready to roll with song and dance
Line dance, lip-sync and step show are just a few of the events that will be held Feb. 12-15, during UTM's Greek Fest.
The Panhellenic Council and Interfraternity Council will participate in their annual event, Greek Fest. This is a week dedicated to celebrating the many fraternities and sororities on the UTM campus as well as raising awareness about several issues through philanthropies.
The members of each will participate in several events throughout the five days. The week will begin on Monday, Feb. 12 with an all-Greek picture that will be used for many different things throughout the next year. At 6 p.m. on Monday evening, members of the Greek organizations will participate in an event known as Greek Race.
"Greek Race is set up like the Amazing Race. Teams are made up of two people, each of which must be from a different organization," Jared Anderson said.
Line dance will be held on Tuesday night. During this event, each group participating will dance around the line that will be taped in a large square. The groups will be allowed to pick one song and choreograph a unique dance. Typically, the groups practice their dances for a couple weeks prior to the event.
Wednesday, the fraternities and sororities will participate in an event called Lip Sync. The groups will put together routines, which can be up to eight minutes in length. Each fraternity and sorority is allowed to decide which word they will base their routine on this year. Being able to decide different words will allow for some variety in the performances as well as a higher level of creativity on all parts.
The week will conclude with the Greek Step Show on Friday night. As of now, the participants for the step show have not been fully determined. The fraternities and sororities have until Feb. 6 to turn in their packets.
All events are open to the general public and will be held in the Field House. There will be an admission charge for the events.
"Line dance admission will be $3 at the door, Lip Sync will be $5, and Step Show will be $8 in advance and $10 at the door," Anderson said.
Each year, the Greek office selects a philanthropy and the admissions to the events help support that particular cause. This year, the philanthropy will be a joint effort. The money collected from Line Dance will go to the Carl Perkin's Center; while the money from the other two will benefit Bethany Scott of AOII, who was recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
"We've chosen two really great philanthropies this year that the entire Greek community has been very supportive of. We want everyone to come out and support Greek life, but also these great causes," Anderson said.

The only important thing in a book is the meaning that it has for you. W. Somerset Maugham (via beckisbookshelf)
My head is saying let go, my heart is saying just wait and see. (via icanrelateto)
Marrying young is not the end of my freedom. It means I want to travel and see the world, but with her by my side. It means I still like drinking in bars and dancing in clubs, but stumbling home with her at 2am and eating pizza in our underwear. It means I know that I want to kiss those lips every morning, and every night before bed. If you see marriage as the end of your 'freedom', you're doing it wrong.

The guys discuss the possibility of the Houston Texans trading the No. 1 pick or passing on Clowney, and the chances that other teams could try and trade up to No. 2 to draft the former Gamecocks defensive end.

text: Health 9 Common Mistakes That Age You It's easier than you think to get time back on your side. by Kristina Grish 3 of 9 | Eating Inflammatory Foods Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) form when sugars and fats react with a protein, causing a structure to change irreversibly, and then attach to many things in the body and cause damage. While we can create AGEs in our body after eating sugar, we can also straight-up consume these AGEs via foods that are processed and/or heated. Browning, caramelizing, grilling, roasting, broiling and frying create AGEs. Highly processed and canned foods heated during processing, as well as high-fat dairy products like cheese, are also culprits. AGEs can increase inflammation and oxidation that cause aging and age-related diseases affecting the heart, brain, bones and joints, kidneys, insulin resistance, anemia and skin.Youth Boosters: Your best bets to reduce the consumption of AGEs are to eat raw when possible, eat foods in their whole form and cook them with a water-based method (like steaming, poaching or boiling) or marinate in an acid (like vinegar or lemon juice) before cooking. Eating a variety of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory foods can also help reduce the inflammation and oxidation that AGEs cause, so go for berries, sweet potatoes and leafy greens. < > Printer-friendly version

But if you just had to eat straight cauliflower all day, you might not want to live 100 years. Instead, he uses it to make incredibly delicious vegan dishes like Buffalo Cauliflower "Wings" and Cauliflower Lentil Tacos that you'd want at least a century to eat again and again.

NCF Nation: Demetrius Taylor
Foster: 'Defense is king' at Virginia Tech
After losing six starters from last year's 10-3 team, there are plenty of young players on the roster this year who will be expected to uphold that tradition this fall.
"We make sure right up front, we want them to know we've got a tradition here, an expectation here, and those expectations aren't going to change," Foster said. "They've got to come up to our level, and the thing about us here, defense is king. As good as we've been, we also went through a stretch there where we won 10 or 11 games with 100th-ranked offense. I want them to know we've won games around here just by playing great defense, and that's not going to change. It's their responsibility to carry the torch, so to speak."
"We know what it takes," Foster said. "We've been doing it a long time and we've had a lot of success. We've got the formula for success here, at least I think we've got it cornered a little bit. It's just getting the kids to understand that's what our expectations are, and you've got a certain responsibility to live up to those expectations, and understand this is what it's going to take for you to be successful, for you to be on the field, your work ethic and how we want you to do certain things a certain way."
The older players on the team, like boundary corner Rashad Carmichael, take seriously their role in ushering the younger players along.
"It goes back to recruiting and us guys on that defense trying to build a brotherhood more than anything," Carmichael said. "That's the kind of player I am. If you put it on the line for your brother, then the game will go a little bit easier. It just feels great when you can look to the left and the right and see guys who are ready. A lot of teams on this level don't have that chemistry. It's more of a family here. I'm confident."
The defensive line, particularly the defensive tackles, is the biggest question mark. Virginia Tech has to replace three of four starters and talented backup tackle Demetrius Taylor. Veteran tackle John Graves returns as the lone starter, and he is expected to be the leader of the entire defense, not just the line. Antoine Hopkins should be the starter opposite Graves, but the staff needs to find quality depth on the interior.
Despite the loss of Cody Grimm, Foster said he is confident in his linebackers, a group that progressed as the year went along, but there will be some competition in the secondary, particularly at safety where Kam Chancellor was the anchor. Free safety is the position that does most of the communication and checks, so he'll need a leader there. Foster will look at junior Eddie Whitley, and sophomore Antone Exum, a highly recruited player, among others.
Foster doesn't have much time to prepare the younger players for their Labor Day matchup against Boise State, which will again have one of the most productive offenses in the country. Then again, it's not like Foster hasn't had to reload before.
"We're inexperienced, we're going to be very inexperienced on the defensive side of the ball," Foster said. "But at the same time, that's not a bad thing. I think we're going to have a good mix of guys who have played. We've got a good mix of guys who are leaders, and at the same time we have some young, hungry guys. Sometimes that can really be even better for you than maybe having a bunch of guys come back who think they're going to be pretty good. I kind of like that challenge a little bit more sometimes. We've had some of our best years when people thought we weren't going to be as good."
Usually in their best years, though, defense was king.
ACC's lunchtime links
Posted by ESPN.com's Heather Dinich
Plenty of spring games = plenty of links. Here we go around the ACC:
Some wonder if teams will be able to defend Georgia Tech better after having seen it once. Well, don't forget that Georgia Tech is likely to be better at executing it, too.
If anyone knows how to defend that offense, though, it's Jim Grobe, and he was a bit surprised by how well his young defense has played this spring.
Demetrius Taylor's hard work finally seems to have paid off at Virginia Tech -- as one of the smallest starting defensive tackles the Hokies have had "in the modern era," according to Kyle Tucker of the Virginian Pilot.
NC State is in great shape at quarterback, but protecting them appears to be another matter.
Duke's quarterbacks were also looking good, and the offense was better than it was a year ago.
Here's a name to remember: Virginia receiver Matt Snyder.
"This isn't the last time his uniform will be dirty," coach Al Groh told reporters after the Cavaliers' spring game on Saturday.

January and February 2014 were super exciting crazy times for the Offbeat Empire, with a year of schemes culminating in the six Lovesick Expos nationwide. There was a obscene amount of planning that went into the Offbeat Bride/Lovesick Expo partnership, and it was one of the most complex business partnerships I've ever launched. Making this leap was a very intentional choice I made both for business reasons and personal reasons…
This is Offbeat Empire's archive of Announcements posts.
Get Published: A Workshop for Wedding and Lifestyle Photographers (Seattle, May 19th 2014)
I'll be speaking on a panel at an event in Seattle hosted by Two Bright Lights, the service we use to make it easy for wedding photographers to submit weddings to Offbeat Bride.
Event details:
- Monday, May 19, 2014 from 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM (PDT)
- Four Seasons Hotel Seattle, Cyprus Room (99 Union St, Seattle, WA 98101)
- Cost: FREE!
Speaking at Wedding MBA conference in Vegas again, September 2014
Anyone remember back in October 2012 when I was a speaker at the Wedding Merchant Business Association conference in Vegas? Well, I've been invited back to speak in the main room again this fall, and this time I'm bringing friends…
Lovesick Expos: 2 down, 4 to go
Whew. You know how Offbeat Bride is co-producing the Lovesick Expos this year? Well, they kicked off this past weekend and in two days, I talked to roughly 1000 people. For a lady like me whose life mostly revolves around sitting quietly in front of a screen working from a corner of my bedroom, it was pretty mind-boggling. (And amazing!)
XOXO Festival: reconciling my two industries
Last fall, I spoke in Las Vegas at Wedding MBA, the largest educational event dedicated to the business side of the wedding business. This fall, I attended XOXO Festival, a tiny conference in Portland, OR for people who make things online. The two experiences were vastly different, and clarified for much for me about the two worlds I divide my time between, and my role in each of them.
This post is long and rambly, but if you're in the mood, come along for the dawdle…
The Dark Day of September 5, 2013, and our brand new server
We're still recovering from our epic outage, which lasted from about 8pm PST September 4th until 4am PST September 6th. By several magnitudes, this was the longest downtime we've had in our 7 years of publishing. That shit was brutal. After troubleshooting on the old server for 20 hours, we decided to abandon ship and move to a brand new server. So far, it's sparkly and doing well.
I've been using the Offbeat Empire's Facebook page to keep everyone updated, but now that offbeatempire.com is back online (on an entirely new server, built from scratch) I'll update this post with updates as we have them.
Watch my "Building a Community with WordPress" panel from WordCamp Seattle
In June, I was a panelist at WordPress Seattle. The panel was focused on using WordPress to build a community, and we talked about stuff like the best time of day to post, how to foster constructive conversation instead of bitching, and how to pick the right name for your community. You also get to see someone address me as "YOU, female person on stage."
Two different industries, two different events… all good times!
I used to be really good about getting out to industry events promoting my work and mingling and personal branding and bla bla, but a funny thing happens when you get really busy with running a small business: you stop having time to do anything other than run that small business! (Add a small child on top of a small business and hello, shut-in!) Anyway, over the past year or so, I've been making a concerted effort to get myself back out into the world of my various industries, and these past couple weeks have been EXTRA busy…
