Fabulous Vegan Recipes

Persimmons are back in season and I had to use them in a recipe. I bought two the other day as I was wishing I had some homemade jam in my fridge and so I made persimmon jam. It's not the usual fruit that you would make jam with but persimmons are considered a berry so why not? Persimmons are sweet but not as sweet as strawberries or raspberries so I sweetened the jam with maple syrup.

Today I graduate from The Institute for Integrative Nutrition!  I am now a health coach and in a few short weeks, I will receive my certificate.  It has been a wonderful year, meeting new people, learning about nutrition and business and soul searching as to where I see my future.  In the past year, I quit my job, moved to New York City, became a certified yoga instructor and now I'm a health coach. 2014 has been the greatest year!  Now is a great time to reflect where you've been this year and where you want to go.  For those that are meditating with me, use your meditation time to envision your future; see where your thoughts take you.
