"Thank you so much for the beautiful reading. I have listened to the recording a number of times, and each time I do, I hear something different, or something else drops a level in my understanding. I was so inspired by your knowledge and clarity that I have signed up to study with you on your philosophy course.” - Fiona C

Healthy Pear Cake

This is a wonderful cake. Dense, moist and delicious. Every autumn, pears are in abundance at Seven Winds Yoga, as regular students are well aware. Come help yourself to pears and try this cake! You may wonder (as I did the first time I made it) how it works. With no butter or oil, how can it be so moist? With no eggs or baking powder, how does it develop texture? Yet this incredible cake never ceases to surprise. Easy to make and easy to eat. Healthy and never cloying. (You can even have it for breakfast.) And when the pears are gone, try it with apples.

1 C. wholemeal spelt flour
1 C. brown rice flour
1/2 teas. sea salt
1 teas. cinnamon
1 teas. freshly grated ginger
1 C. apple juice
1/4 C. chopped walnuts
2 C. peeled and chopped pears
1 C. "pear sauce" (just chop pears & cook up like applesauce)
1/3 C. maple syrup

Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. or 350 degrees F.
Prepare an 8" round baking tin (oil & flour).
Mix dry ingredients together.
Pour into prepared tin.
Bake about 1 hour.

Enjoy!

It was a triple-conjunction occurring at the winter solstice, so extra powerful. The previous triple-conjunction in earth occurred in Virgo in 1980-81, inaugurating the Information Age . . .  Read article on blog
