Silicone chocolate molds!




I found these simple effective chocolate molds in different shapes. They will be my next new kitchen item! The silicone makes unmolding of such things as chocolates much, much easier. These can be found at most kitchen stores now days.

Come to me new cookbooks!




All can be found on Amazon.com and I will be saving for these asap!


Grow my little sprouts!



This is a awesome new sprouter and seeds from www.amazon.com for $13. I am just finding out how awesome Amazon can be! I did'nt even know they had all this organic/raw food! And if you click on free ship only, you only see items that can be shipped for free! I think spouting is a nice way to add some raw nutrition.
