I’ve been pretty busy revamping the website, working on the chocolate recipe e-book, and a project which is a secret till it’s ready in a week or so, but I ‘m taking a brief break to let you know that Sweet Sensations will be running a stall at the Cabbages and Frocks Outdoor Christmas Fair on sun 7 Dec 11am-4pm at William Ellis School in Highgate Road, London NW5 1RN (by the outdoor ice skating rink, Hampstead Heath). This is a

‘one day Winter Fair for all the family, with a band, superb Christmas gifts &  all the best in fashion and food from Cabbages & Frocks’.

 

Sweet Sensations will also have a table at the December meeting of The North London Network in Muswell Hill on 15 December 2008.  The meeting is for self employed North Londoners, and takes place upstairs at Sable D’Or, 249 Muswell Hill Broadway N10 1DE. Cost: £5.00. If you are self employed, a freelancer, or run your own small business and live or work in North London, then do come along. This is a very vibrant friendly group. www.northlondonnetwork.com

Sweet Sensations is on the front page of the latest issue of 'Foods Matter' magazine, as it's byline says 'The ONLY magazine for allergy problems - and solutions!'. It's a great article, with lots of information about the various ingredients and sweeteners I use.

 

The magazine itself (and the website) are full of useful information for people with allergies and food intolerances - go to www.foodsmatter.com to browse all the articles or to buy a subscription to the magazine.

Sweet Sensations will be at the London Vegan Festival next Sunday. This is being held  at Kensington Town Hall in Hornton St W8. For more information go to  www.vegancampaigns.org.uk/festival

 I myself attended a 'cacao ceremony' in South London last Saturday. It was facilitated by Keith, a shaman who normally lives in Guatemala but is over in the UK for a few months. There were about 9 of us and it involved drinking one or two mugs full of a specially prepared raw chocolate drink - this is a lot! This amount would normally have me spinning form the stimulants present in raw chocolate, but interestingly this didn't happen. Keith then  spent the next few hours helping each of us through our various emotional/mental/spiritual processes. It was a very safe space and Keith is one of those rare souls - a healer with considerable gifts but without ego or agenda. Keith doesn't have a website but you can contact him on glowtogo@yahoo.com. He is only here for a few months though, so catch him while you can!

As usual, so much going on - well, lots of hours spent in front of the computer and a few (not as many as I would like) spent experimenting in the kitchen, but not a lot I can tell you about right now.

 

Apart, that is, from the Telegraph article by journalist Judith Wood which finally came out on the 26th January and was wonderfully glowing and positive. Lots of people have since signed up to the newsletter (hope you're enjoying your recipes) and I will very shortly be announcing some workshops dates for March and April.
