The Power of Baking with Mindful Intent

The Power of Baking with Mindful Intent is an 84-page softcover book that is the perfect companion to your me-time cuppa. With practical mindfulness exercises accompanying each cake recipe it is a must-have book for all small households who like a little cake with a cuppa.

About the Author

Hi, my name is Caroline and I’m a food lover, keen cook, seasonal food fan and Thermomix owner among many other things. And I live in a single person household.

I’ve created this site for those who cook just for themselves. It is a mix of recipes, tips, thoughts and reflections on cooking just 4Me.

Did you know that single person households make up nearly a quarter of the households in Australia and this proportion is rapidly increasing? Yet most cookbooks present recipes that serve 4-8 people!

To me, that means eating the same dish for 3 nights in a row only to throw out the remainder as I just can’t face the dish again! My other option is to freeze the leftovers for another time.

However, years of freezing for another time have taught me that another time never comes when I clean out the freezer three months later and throw out untouched frozen leftovers.

While in theory, it’s easy to just ‘quarter the recipe’, in practice that is not so easy and becomes a little too much on a busy weeknight when you’re trying to cook a healthy dinner for yourself after a long day at work. When you’re trying to beat the voice in your head that says, in very caring and convincing tones, “Why bother? It’s just you, it’s too much work, grilled cheese on toast will do for you.”

Owning a Thermomix has completely changed my life. It has opened up new ways of cooking to me, which has resulted in me rethinking cooking. It’s helped me realise that I’m not cooking for one, I’m cooking just for me!

What’s the difference? The difference is I’m worth the effort. By following the four rules of cooking just for me I’ve found a healthier and happier time preparing meals.

When I reflected on cooking just 4Me I realised it was more than just about finding recipes for one. There were four things to consider.

1) Doing the numbers for one

2) Working the progressive ingredient

3) Winning the 30 minute challenge

4) Showing me love and respect

The aim of this site is to share my cooking just 4Me principles, tips and recipes and I trust that in doing so that you, like me,  will enjoy creating everyday surprises just 4Me…..  I mean you!

The just4Me Bake Club is born

After writing the ‘Cooking for You and Me’ cookbook for Thermomix, which has been massively popular I felt I had weeknight dinners sorted and I started a journey to find the perfect cake to have with a cuppa in a size for Me.

As I’m not a baker, I decided I would learn to be one.

Three years on, I’m feeling much more like a baker plus I’ve created a huge collection of cake recipes that I’d love to share with other just4Me bakers. And that’s why the just4Me Bake Club was created. And you don’t need a Thermomix!

1001 Trivia Questions

Sort Out the Experts from the Pretenders

Trivia Book to challenge those that think the know everything about trivia or for those who want to know some more interesting facts.

 

I have always been interested in history, geography or whose who. When I look around I ask myself does this function have a name or who won this event and so on and this led me to start writing down questions and answer.

I started this as a add hoc process in 1998 and added to it very slowly until late 2016 I decided to finish my idea of a trivia book. Now retired I had the time and over those years I traveled to numerous countries and built up new knowledge.


Friends also put up with me asking them “do you know …..” so to put those knockers I hit the task in November 2016 and am looking at June 2017 with an end product.

If nothing else trivia questions keep the grey cells working and you would be surprised what you really know when you put your mind to it and even learn something new.
I would not say I am a trivia nut but someone who enjoys a mental challenge and learning

About the Author

I must thank my long suffering wife Terri and give credit to my daughter in law Jackie Wood for the excellent drawings at the start of each chapter. The wonderful cartoons throughout the book were done by the very talented cartoonist David Kowalick. All this would not have come together without the excellent staff at Green Hill Publishing.

The friends who put up with me asking “Did you know……” questions over the years deserve a medal. I might mention I started this project in 1998 and dabbled at it but in late 2016 there was a push to finish this project and get the knockers off my back. I wanted to prove to myself also that I could achieve my 1998 dream and get this trivia book out there. If nothing else but gets people’s grey cells working and learn some new facts can’t be a bad thing.

About the Author

My experience and adventures as a primary school teacher during the last decade inspired me to target the seven to eleven age bracket. Communication with students about my new book gave me sufficient feedback to feel that the ‘Terence the Turkey’ series would be well received by the young generation.

This book consists of short stories , with most adventures taking place on a farm with a variety of animals. The main character is off course Terence, and he is well supported by others like Gopher the goose, Baby the bull, Patrick the pig, Ernie the eagle, Gerald the goat, Uncle Murdock, the Fearfeathers, Aunt Suzie the swan, and many others.

My main idea is to tell interesting, and some funny stories in every chapter. Each story concludes with a ‘FUNSHEET’, and hopefully this will get the children’s attention!

The ‘fun sheet’ includes a Bible scriptures, life lessons, vocabulary, and interesting facts. There will be questions and quizzes, and all the answers will be provided at the back of the book.

Weird

“A fascinating account of how Extraterrestrial Contact and how this phenomenon affects people’s lives and reality in so many extraordinary ways. Dermot shares with great honesty how these experiences have challenged him on multiple levels. It takes courage, to own this is happening to you in a world where most of the public struggle to even believe the UFO phenomenon is real, let alone admit to interactions with non-human intelligences. In my research over my 20+ years of research, also echo the same patterns of experiences.”
