Red Hot Bliss Balls



If you don't like cinnamon, stop reading!

I loooooove cinnamon. 
And I especially love those little red hot cinnamon candies.
Of course, I'm not eating candy anymore so these are the closest I can get!

If you have successfully reintroduced nuts,
you can add 1.5 cups of slivered almonds to this recipe.

If you are still in the AIP
elimination phase, leave the nuts out.
(the one in the photo is nut free)

Ingredients:
2 cups shredded coconut
4 Tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 cup Medjool dates - pitted
4 Tablespoons cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
pinch of salt

Method:
Put all ingredients into a food processor -
I use my Thermomix.
Process til desired consistency.
Roll into balls - big, small, whatever takes your fancy.
Store in fridge.

Hi, I'm Bonnie. This is my journal. ** Let me tell you about my journey ... **  There is a quote that says : "Everyone you meet is fighting a battle  you know nothing about. Be Kind. Always."  That quote has resonated with me since the  first time I heard it ...because  I believe it to be completely true.  Everyone has a battle. (and so many of them secret.)  I'm about to share mine with you.  Let me give you a short introduction to the video below, an introduction in how it pertains to me.  I have Hidradenitis Suppurativa. (HS)   I didn't know it was called that until a handful  of years ago. I always just called it "my bumps" ... and only to my husband because he was  the only other person who knew the extent of it  (until a few years ago). He was ... and is still ... the only person (apart from doctors) who have ever seen it in it's entirety.  Unlike Jackson, who shares so bravely  in the Ted Talk below, my HS

Word of the Year for 2021

  I doubt I need to say that 2020 didn't go as planned. For anyone. It's interesting though, as it always is, that the word I chose for the year ended up being exactly the right one.  It took on a completely different meaning than I had imagined it would.  I chose the word DANCE for 2020. I didn't really know how the word would  play out but early into  the whole COVID shut down,  it became  clear that  2020 was going to be about rhythms ... everything  changed, basically overnight, and we were left to figure out what our new rhythms would be. Here in Australia, or at least where we live, life has basically gone back to normal ... just with COVID protocols and increased cleaning, etc.  For us as a family, life went back to  'normal'-ish but then our puppy was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer.  We  walked a bittersweet couple of months with him, enjoying every minute that we had left.   Life had already  slowed to it's new rhythm and we slowed it even more to

Word of the Year for 2023

  What a year 2022 was, am I right?  It was an interesting one for me as far as my word went. That word was build.  I won't go into all   the details but if you want them,  they are in lasts years post. As usual, the year and my  word looked very different to what I  had envisioned.  I had wanted to build a new habit  each month but I found that feeling tedious  and without a natural flow so I abandoned it in June.   I was totally ok with that.  These words are meant to be  life giving and enriching, not restrictive. As for the rest of it, I feel I did build on  things I had previously learned.  But I feel like  I am always doing that. That's what  life is, right? Learning. As I reflect on the year gone, I feel  a sense of having had to tear some things down as a  foundation for future building that will happen.  One example of that process  is making the decision and resigning from my  job of sixteen years.  It wasn't a job I ever  saw myself resigning from but life had  d
