Thought you’d get a kick out of the fact that I just now made my first iHerb order and used your referral code. Many months later and it still works. Yay! Palm sugar, lucuma, kelp noodles and irish moss headed my way.

@Amy, Oh, I wish more people would advocate soaking grains, nuts and legumes! Even if you don't think you experience ill effects, phytates block absorption of vital nutrients. If you don't consume many grains at all, this shouldn't pose too much of a problem. But if grains, nuts and legumes make up a hefty portion of your diet, you could experience mineral deficiencies that will cause any number of health problems. Look into it! Soaking is a part of my daily routine, and it takes an extra couple minutes of my day...not an inconvenience at all.

I just registered yesterday for iherb by coincidence! I bought mesquite flour (gluten-free) and palm sugar. I have some mesquite-fig cookies in the works… But I’m wrapping up my semester, so I do not have the recipe yet. Anyway, I want to join the giveaway fun. I hope is fine . My healthy cooking tip is to use local and fresh produce. I joined a CSA this year and I can’t wait to blog all about it! Also, if you are in the mood for Mexican food, I just posted a banana leaf tamales recipe. Thanks for the giveaway Amy!

@Karah, Oh, you've made the donuts? Yes, I love them too. Love your date-sweetening idea. I love dates to sweeten baked goods, too. Hugs, Amy
