Coconut Nectar and Coconut Crystals

Wow! Has it really been that long since I last posted? Ugh. What does the time go. We are still plugging away here and trying to eat healthy. We have all been hit with our first colds for the fall/winter season. Hopefully, our last!

I am so excited as we are still reaping produce from the garden! I picked green beans this evening and have broccoli, lettuce, and cabbage that aren't quite ready yet. Peppers are still growing and I harvested the beets the other day. I love the extended growing season! Wish I had the time to make it last longer.

I would like to share two NEW (to me) products with you today. We have been using Coconut Nectar and Coconut Crystals in our baking. The Coconut Nectar would be a more healthy substitute for honey and the Coconut Crystals would be a more healthy substitute for brown sugar. Both products are a low glycemic sugar alternative with no chemicals, pesticides, or herbicides. They are gluten free, unbleached, unrefined, and GMO free. The coconut crystals and coconut nectar can be used in tea, cereals, or baked items. The Coconut Nectar can be used on pancakes too and is more nutritious than agave! They are both made from the sap of the coconut tree. I usually purchase these from www.vitacost.com. Believe me, they are both worth checking into.

Seriously, I need to get better at posting. I will try to make it my goal for the week. Hope you all are enjoying the fall weather. I hear more rain is in the forecast for next week!
