In this episode, I rehash the processing of it, discuss some further research that has been brought to me about agave syrup and its processing and (a little off topic) talk about the health benefits of nettles tea!

Take a look and be sure to pass this along to your friends…

Your question of the day: Do you have any idea what our plans for 2009 are? (If you know already, please don’t spoil it!)

The has been some discussion about maple syrup and agave and some people have not agreed with my recommendation of maple syrup. Maple syrup is not my first recommendation… honey and dates and just plain old fruit should be the first resort. My recommendation is that I prefer maple syrup to agave, but its really not the best first choice! :-)

Hope that clears this up!!!

Live Awesome!
