Eco-Jewelry Leaves Us Mesmerized


Eco-Jewelry Leaves Us Mesmerized




With allusions to oceanic aragonite structures, planetary space, crystal formations, spiderwebs, and the “concept of making the abstractly invisible visible,” according to designer Heather Goldberg, Shadowplay’s debut collection of eco-conscious jewelry is replete with magic and mysticism. No mystery lies in where the ingredients are sourced from, however. Handmade with organic, naturally dyed yarns; Swarovski crystals; and fair-trade black silver closures from the Karen Village Hill Tribe in Northern Thailand, Shadowplay’s elegant, one-of-a-kind necklaces feature artful tangles of yarn punctuated with a galaxy of crystals.







Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies


Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
I love to make cookies. They are one of my favorite things to bake. I used to make cookies all the time, however since going gluten free I have only made them twice. Gluten free cookies are just not the same. I am trying to come up with some good gluten free cookies by adapting some of my old favorites, but the results have been mixed.



However I have been craving cookies, so when I saw a recipe from Emeril for flourless peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, I knew I wanted to try it. Not only do we love cookies in our house, we love peanut butter. So, I gave these a try.

We loved these cookies. It was so nice to have a cookie again that was really good. We loved these so much that they did not even last 24 hours. We ate way too many of these. I told my sister about these cookies and she decided to try them. Her family also loved these cookies.

One of the reasons I like this recipe is because it is a normal, but gluten free recipe. There is nothing strange or weird in these cookies. Anyone would have the ingredients on hand to make these. These are a cookie everyone would enjoy.

Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips ( I used about 3/4 of a cup)
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract



Combine all the ingredients in a bowl, and stir with a wooden spoon until smooth.



Take about 1 heaping tablespoon of dough and roll between your hands to form a smooth ball. Place the balls of dough on ungreased cookie sheets( I used my stoneware pan), spacing them 1 inch apart. You should get about 12 cookies per sheet. Flatten slightly.

Bake the cookies at 350 until the cookies are puffed and lightly golden, about 10 minutes. Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 4-5 minutes. Then remove them onto wire racks to cool.

Nature of Earth- Ice Storm 2010 Photos


This is what I woke up to this morning.

Thankfully I have no where to go today.

Because although ice is very pretty,

it creates quite a mess.

So today I am sitting back and trying to see the beauty in this winter storm.

Is it currently snowing, so it might get worse before it gets better,


but for now I am thankful that we still have our electricity, although I am guessing it may not last for long.

Importance of Cash Flow


Importance of Cash Flow


What is Cash Flow?
The concept of cash flow can be defined in different manners. Some people feel that it is fit to define cash flow as an income through sales or a revenue through any economic activity or any expenditure for the organization. Cash flow is a any kind of income or expenditure, that affects the cash accounts. It must be noted that inward cash flow does not include many incomes such as a credit sale of goods or income due but not received. A cash flow must be strictly, financially liquid cash or finances that can be stored in a bank account or in the form of currency. Any financial statement, that shows an inward or outward flow of cash is a proof of cash flow. It must be noted that profits, due payments, and other factors related to credit are not included under the domain of cash flow.




Cash Inflow and Outflow
The concept of cash flow can be broadly divided into two categories, namely the inflow and outflow. The cash inflow, which is also known as inward cash flow or just cash flow is generated as a result of financing, ventures and sales. The cash outflow which is also known as onward flow of cash is seen as a result of many factors such as purchases, investments, salaries and administrative expenditures. The importance of cash flow statement was realized in the wake of the 2007 recession cycle. Business organizations have realized the importance of cash flow analysis, and have started regular audits of cash outflows as well as inflows. This study of inflow and outflow tends to play a highly instrumental role on general financial planning and financial management.

Importance of Cash Flow
There is a significant importance of cash flow to a business. Cash flow as defined above, is the inflow and outflow of cash or liquidized finances. The following are some advantages of inward and outward flow of cash.
  • Income Assurance: The biggest importance of cash flow is that the business organization tends to have an assured income irrespective of the outside economic condition. Many business corporations have a very well balanced and uniform inward and outward cash flow.
  • Ensures Timely Payment: The uniform and assured cash flow, in both the directions, ensures two principal payments, namely, the salaries of employees are paid on time and installments of all loans are made on time. This safeguards the trust of employees and upholds the credit rating.
  • Return Ratio: The analysis of cash flow ensures that the business is not investing finances in the wrong avenues, and investments already made are paying off well. This ratio is often termed as return over asset ratio.
  • Keeps You Out of Debt: The timely cash inflow plays a very instrumental role in keeping you out of debt, as a timely inflow of cash prevents you from taking small loans.
  • Saves Unnecessary Expenditure: The use of inward and outward cash flow, prevents all unnecessary expenditure such as piled up interest, late payment charges, etc.
  • Timely Investments: As the inflow and outflow of cash is on time, you are left with adequate free and liquid finances, which you may invest in time bound instruments and securities.
Importance of cash flow can be summarized in a very simple manner, by comparing it with a balance scale. When we measure anything with a balance scale, we immediately realize the comparative differences between the heavier and lighter. These kinds of flows can be put down into what is known as cash flow statement, which is like a balance scale. This statement that shows the inward and outward balances, helps us to locate unnecessary expenditures, and income that is due but not received.

Good Luck!
