Holiday in Nelson

It is so good to get to Nelson and spend time with my daughter Bex & Sue; having Dave my husband here is a huge added bonus. We came to hear her play in her showcase at Selkirk College. to see her fantastic performance. Please go to http://www.ustream.tv/channel/shambhala-music-hall to see for yourself. She is the 2nd performer on 27 March
Another great thing is there are so many places to eat that provide wonderful gluten free vegan food. We went to KC on Baker St, they have sushi, Thai & Chinese - yum what a delight - especially their Omega 3 sushi - double yum & healthy; what more could you ask.
I found some tofu with sea veg in a supermarket so I'm looking forward to trying that.
I made my favourite roast veg for supper the other night & that went down well with everyone. (See the recipe section - though it is so easy you probably do this already!)
The difficulty I am having is both Bex & Sue are amazing cooks; so I have not been totally vegan or gluten free this week; with the usual uncomfortable results of course! I have been attempting to base my eating therefore on the 18/21 principle - that is if you eat 3 meals a day for 7 days a week then 18 of them should be healthy; in my case vegan & gluten free. Then snacks I try and make as many as possible g.f & v- which is generally pretty easy.
Had a bit of a disaster last night; I tried to make wraps with coconut flour, but as I had no xanthan gum they were not going to hold together. Still no problem the mix will be added to other ingredients to make a banana bread for desert tonight.
Love & blessings to all who read my blogs. xxx
