My joyful little cilantro plants measure a few more centimetres taller this week! The excitement is growing. Get it? Ohhhh that was not that clever.

Green lettuce salads with avocado, tomatoes and hempseeds -- I'd like to eat more of these every day.

For a cheap yet quality dessert (and because I didn't feel like walking to Denman) I threw some bananas, strawberries and cacao powder with water into the vita-mix, then set the smoothie in the freezer. Ideally, I would have had patience and some frozen chocolate dessert. Instead, I had cold sugary liquid and a brain freeze.
