A Journey into Thought & Spirit

Nature is amazing once you "see" the interconnections between man, plants and food. I love these certain type of purple-flower bushes that blossom with what looks like blackberries. 

The bees love these bushes and feed off of them during the spring and summer months. Whenever I look at these bushes, I think of blackberries. 

Have you picked your berries this season? ☀️ #vegan #veganfood #vegetarian #veganrecipes #veganfoodporn #veganfoodshare #f52grams #seattle #seattlefood #foodblogger #foodporn #foodpics #diet #nutrition #mindfuleating #mindfulliving #food #foodie #vegan #veganfoodporn #healthyeating #healthyfood #healthy #familyfood #slowfood #thenewhealthy #personaltrainer #healthcoach #flowers #flower #glutenfree #glutenfreevegan

And if you live in Seattle, you know there is no shortage of blackberry and raspberry bushes in the city. Inspired by the fruits and flowers of nature, I decided to combine the natural sweet and tart flavors in a refined sugar-free filling. 

I always make desserts healthier, so if you want the filling to be sweeter, add more agave nectar. However, too much sweetener overrides the natural flavor of the berries. Enjoy!
