Hey! How are you? I usually check in daily, but sometimes just look around. I am actually not too bad, thanks! I had a spell over the weekend that I came to find out was PMS related...which was good in a way, since I was "sans" period since March. The herbs and supplements are really helping. I hope that you are doing well also. Have a good one!

Good to hear from you...and good to hear you're doing well!
I also didn't get my period for AGES! I think it was 10 months. I'm glad you finally got yours. I hope it wasn't too too bad!
I'm finally doing it. I'm going to a nutritionist on Monday! I'll have to let you know how it goes...wish me luck!
What herbs are you taking that are helping?
Have a great weekend!!!
*hugs*

Good for you on going to a nutritionist. I was helped immensely! I have been taking 500mg 2x a day of both Evening Primrose Oil and Chaste Berry (Sometimes called Vitex or Agnus Castus.) It took me about a month from beginning the herbs to onset of my cycle, but it has been quite a relief. I feel much better knowing that I could balance myself out naturally. I also eat 2T of ground flax a day which is a natural phytoestrogen and helps us ladies in many ways.
Please let us know how your trip to the nutritionist goes. I'll be thinking of you.
Take care,
Christianne

I made strawberry sorbet and just froze it and it was wonderful! If you stir it up after about 6 hours or so, just as it starts to freeze it will be smoother! Than let it freeze overnight and enjoy!

I recently found soy cheese, been looking for a long time, but got a tip from a friend and finally found it! I am so glad and I'm eating some every day, delicious! 
I would love to make some of the puddings, they seemed delicious but haven't found all the ingredients yet. The rose or sushi rice for instance, it's named different here so have to go on searching. Can I make it with jasmin rice or does it really have to be rose rice? 
Thanks, it's real nice to read all of your favourite recipes!
Ciao! Natasja

Can you find any rice that is small? That is what the rose or sushi rice is. I think I tried it with the jasmine rice and it wasn't starchy enough to make the pudding thick, plus I am sure it would give it a different taste.

Hi - What you're looking for is short grain sticky rice or sushi rice. Short grain sweet white rice will also work. Any brand will do, doesn't have to be rose. Try a health food store that sells rice in bulk, or an Asian market. Or, your local grocery store in the ethnic section - they'll almost certainly have bags of Asian short grain rice (like Calrose).
Best,
H

Thanks for the tips, I have been to some places were they sell lots of rice, what I see is mostly long-grained, so I know that that's not the one, but with this information maybe I get a little further! I'm gonna do a search on the internet, maybe something's coming up then!
Thank you and ciao!
