The heatwave seems to be a never ending story… a story a really like though. Endless heatwave nights spent in the most cozy backyard in Venice seems like a perfect way to end this fast speed sunday. At Axe you only get produce picked from a local organic farm. Braised kale and chard for example.

Really good to have my friend Paul in town and to get to see Sarah who i haven’t seen in a year. We celebrated with the ice cream truck who has the best vegan ice creams in town, always parker here on Abbot Kinney. Don’t miss out.

Saturday night and It’s only me and Olive. I am enjoying some quiet time outside with a bubbly kombucha.  Justin took off to the mountains yesterday for a breather. He really needed to go for a ride up to the wilderness together with all his gear for the weekend. He loves it.

In the mean time I’m enjoying this box of goods. The other day I used some of the apples to make a maple, cinnamon compote on top of a chia pudding.

I made a chia pudding with 1 cup coconut milk, 4 tbsp chia seeds and some raw honey to sweeten a little. Let it sit in the fridge until its thicken. In the mean time cut 3 apples in peaces, throw them in a pot together with 1/3 cup water , 1 tsp pure vanilla extract, 1 tbsp and cinnamon or more if you like.  Bring it to a boil and let it simmer for a good 15-20 minutes. Then mash some of the apple peaces with a fork. I like the compote to be a little chunky. When the apples are soft let it cool before serving it on top of the chia pudding. Simple and delicious… and healthy!

The shelves at Erewhon Market are packed with nutrient dense foods and drinks… and they are all a treat!

Homemade, organic and healthy. This coconut yoghurt was deeelish….. The less ingredients – the better!

I love that the produce section are all organic and that they use (of course ) their own stuff for their juices and smoothies.
