Quail eggs have become for me an essential daily superfood ritual. I have been consuming the raw eggs for a few years now and honestly I do feel that I am growing younger. Lately, after doing some research on tooth repair, I decided to begin eating the egg shells as well. Chock full of calcium, the shells have been proven to regenerate lost teeth and improve overall bone function. For women over forty and growing children, pure and easily absorbable calcium in such a natural form can't be beat. What a treat these little gems are! Thank you, dear quail~

Quail Egg Shells

Supreme Healing of the Diseased Mind
What if you could, had the power, and set forth the intention to train your mind to accept whatever you told it? Say, if your mind were like your child and listened intently to your every word and bought it all - lock, stock and barrel. Imagine the influence you would have in word, thought and deed, the ability to totally program your mind with the perfect, whole and abundant messages chosen by you according to your highest ideals. Well, based on the current scientific findings in brain chemistry, quantum physics and neural-plasticity, as well as the age-old wisdom of mystic sages, this power is in fact yours. It is time we took the roof off the human mind. "The sky is not the limit."
Are you prepared to acknowledge that your beliefs about a thing are 99.9% of the substance that makes it real? Could it be when you believe in toxic chemicals, cancerous cells, and depleted bank accounts you actually, of your own power, make these real for you in your experience. Could your world be neutral, waiting to follow your lead? The very fact that your life mimics your expectations is likely proof positive that you are the creator! Your nose runs when you "catch a cold," your money is short because it doesn't "grow on trees," and your relationships always go sour after that "six-month mark," simply because your obedient mind is only following your instructions and bringing forth experientially what you mentally create. Have you forgotten that you are a steward of infinity? Might you have misnamed your power and called it weakness. It seems the magnificence of you has been diverted, tripping over its luminous rays of light into a dizzying mis-creation. You are Power, remember?
It is, very clearly, a case of mistaken identity. You would not keep from your precious child a garden full of apples, knowing that this abundant place was yours to share. You would not deny them a cool fountain of crystalline waters to quench their thirst when you were the sole owner of the pristine land upon which this well had sprung. You would constantly venture to show them the beauty and love around them, as this very same glory poured out upon you daily, boundlessly. You would tell them wonderful stories, give them high-minded advice, reveal to them the greatest secrets to mastering the awe-inspiring feats you yourself were continuously accomplishing. Yes, you would give them the very best of your words, actions and thoughts, because you would understand that your presence was all-powerful and transcendent and what better else could you, would you, offer them.
Your mind and the body it expresses upon is your child. You are the all-powerful parent of it, by virtue of the living God within. The beneficient Creator. The fount of Love. Take back your Divine power. Imagine the very best of what you can conjure up and tell it to your mind and with all your heart believe it as true and real and act as if it is already done. For you are the Doer! If you say it, so shall it be done. Stop right now this moment saying things, thinking things, acting in ways that are not consistent with perfection, joy and wholeness. This will set you free from the false you who's lost its way and all its attendant sacrifices. The God in you will well up so magnificently, that all creation will come to meet it in humble acquiesence.
Let your highest Self stretch and unfold into its grand Being. Imagine yourself absorbing God essence all around you, for this is the Truth. Let every breath you take be as healing as the most expensive vitamins, every sound you hear sing the most melodic symphony, allow all sights to shine as pure visions of light and grace and acknowledge every encounter as a meeting with angels. Do this deliberately, constantly. Embrace the infinity of abundance and see money as always free and available through the direct action of the Highest Being within you.
Forget about the chemicals, toxins, diseases, disorders, crimes, wars, destruction, chaos and suffering that we alone have created in our misguided imaginations, as our false selves. These problems can only be solved through our releasing them, our discontinuing to tell that story to our children - our impressionable minds. It is time to tell the story of our realization of the perfect order that has always been at hand. We are the grand Creators, with the power to make this body and this earth exactly as we imagine it to be. So, it is time now that we put down the sword and remember who we are, whispering with calm authority, "wake up my child, your are free now...."

This is Lagos!
I am deeply, madly, insatiably in love with Lagos, Nigeria. A place that has been dubbed "one of the worst cities in the world," has captured my heart in such a way that I fear I may never recover. Lagos is my secret love, because most of my friends and family would just not understand my obsession. In many ways, I can't even explain it to myself. But, here I am always coming back, again and again into the arms of Las Gidi which, at best, only reluctantly receive me and hardly give me the structure, stability and care that I need in order to establish a good relationship with a place. Nevertheless, I think Lagos is awesome! It doesn't try to please, but simply does. It's beauty and glory shines ever through the madness and you just can't help yourself from having a good-good time. If you doubt me, I ask - have you ever been to Federal Palace Hotel?
Or looked out from a 6th floor balcony over Ikeja?
Viewed the Lagos lagoon from a top floor in Victoria Island?
Or better yet, have you ever picked wild Aloe from just outside your door in Ikoyi?
Or eaten beans and dodo,
Okro with stew and pounded yam,
And grilled fish and boiled plantain....all in one day??
Yes, I think you will agree. Lagos is a dream! I mean, there's Bogobiri House,
Events like the African Women's Economic Summit,
Art Galleries/Cafes like Terrakulture,
A Spa,
One that makes you feel this dreamy after your massage.
And of course, more food...lots of it!
From African Salad (Ugba),
And red beans rice (Wache),
To Ukpaka Na Ji (Oil Bean Seed with Yam Stew).
Time to take a break? Noooo, not yet. You haven't tried the Egusi Stew!
Then, there's the Edi Ka Ikong!
Oh, wait...you can't come to Lagos without having some Seafood Pepper Soup!
Ok...now you're starting to see the obsession...
Let me just find a place, so I can stay. Just live here, you know, so I can take my time and enjoy all that Eko has to offer. Here is a nice new condo on Banana Island!
Or, what of this hotel in my favorite color blue?
I can take walks and glimpse simple pleasures.
Do a little shopping for some serious local artistry at Quintessence.
Catch a ride to the Ovie Brume Youth Center to teach a knitting class to the future of Nigeria.
Stop over at the Blowfish Hotel and contemplate a swim.
Or while away the evening, painting in the sunset light.
So, my secret is out. I have a lover and Lagos is it!
