Lactation Cookies - Yum Yum!

As promised - here is my recipe for lactation cookies. You may want to call them something else...we've sort of decided to call them freckle cookies around here since I'm eating them to increase my milk supply to nurse our littlest whose name is Breccan. Since we lovingly call him Breckle-Freckle we thought Freckle Cookies would be a great name for these high energy cookies!



Enjoy!

Ingredients:
1 1/2 c. whole wheat flour
2 c. oats
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
3/4 c. almond butter
1/2 c. softened butter
1 1/4 c. flax (ground)
4 T brewer's yeast
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 c. dark brown sugar
1/2 c. sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 large eggs
2 c/ chocolate chips (12oz)
1 c. cashew pieces

1/3 c. water - boiling....then add 6-10 capsules of each: fenugreek and blessed thistle
**stir until the capsules are dissolved and you have a thick paste of the herbs then add the paste to your mix of ingredients above

Mix everything thoroughly.

Pre-heat the oven to 380 degrees.

Use two spoons to place a dozen cookie "dollops" on a cookie sheet. Bake for 10 minutes at 380 degrees. Remove cookies promptly, allow to cool, and enjoy!!

And here is the happy young man who reaps the benefits of these delicious cookies!

Today's post title is inspired by the fabulous song that is likely going through your head right now "I still belong, don't get me wrong, you can speak your mind but not on my time...you can live your life, but this is my life..."etc... The topic however is inspired by a dear friend who recently said to me "why is it so hard for people to be real and have a conversation about things they disagree with?" I've been thinking about that queestion and the conversation that it inspired - what she was really talking about is feedback. Why is it so difficult to tell someone that you'd like them to do something differently? We beat around the bush, and sometimes never say what's on our mind. Isn't this really the rooot cause of relationship problems? The cause of dating mis-haps, family arguements, and the underlying issue that often results in anger and fighting? Before you answer, let me toss out some scenarios: 1) You're dating someone ...

Natural Remedies for Depression ?

Have you had those moments when you weren't feeling quite like yourself? Those negative thoughts were creeping in? clouding your judgment? making every day chores seem like amazing feats of heroism? If you've never felt like that - good for you! I on the other hand struggle with life's ups and downs. From depression during my divorce to post-partum depression, etc... I tend to be a very happy and optimistic person, but the flip side of that coin brings those days when staying in bed is more alluring than hopping in the shower and going through the motions of the day. There are some fabulous medications on the market today, and seeking the help of a healthcare professional is always a great idea. Sometimes I'm not feeling depressed, but I fear I'm headed there.
