having a break

i just finished gardening, and now I'm having a break with mug of oolong tea, little bowl of macadamia nuts, and energy balls i just made this morning. this energy balls, i made in past before. but i added carob and tahini. but this time, i omitted that and i added more nuts, seeds and cranberry. which turned up tasting much nicer. but i did a bit naughty things. i made another batch which i added alcohol free vanilla essence, carob powder, and hazel nuts, then coated with desiccated coconuts. this is actually really lovely. very moooooorish. i can't wait to share these with Marcus and Karen. they like this sort of thing... i meant to make this for a while, but i had been really lazy. thing is; me and Marcus eat lots of these energy bars(naked bars it's called....), although some shops do offer on these, it gets quite pricey. so, i decided make my own. these don't need to be in de-hydrater. they are fridge cake. at moment, I'm digging my recipe books for healthier treats for me to make.

this is how i had my treats today. and i like to present foods a bit japanesey sometimes. i got some japanesey things in my cupboard, so i would like to use them. why not??? at the end of the day, I'm Japanese! so be Japanese!! be mental-oriental!
