As the weather outside grows more blustery, we look inside our kitchen cabinets for herbal inspiration. Nutmeg is a perfect choice for this time of year! Traditionally added to foods in the wintertime to help spread “good cheer,” Nutmeg not only adds a great flavor to foods but also has antidepressant properties. This month we’ll dive into the world of Nutmeg, making some traditional recipes that taste great and offer some herbal comfort as well as making some herbal remedies to use specifically for the medicinal effect. Although Nutmeg is used throughout the world for medicine, I do want to offer a word of caution from using too much at once as Nutmeg can cause some unpleasant side effects such as nausea, vomiting, headaches and more if too much is consumed at a time. The recipes in this issue are well below the limit of these effects but please do exercise caution when first using Nutmeg if you have not used it in the past. For more information on the more potent side of Nutmeg, you can go here: http://www.erowid.org/plants/nutmeg/nutmeg_article1.shtml. Don’t let that scare you away from using Nutmeg though! It’s a delicious addition to your culinary and medicine cabinets with many benefits well worth exploring. In addition to this booklet (which we recommend you print out a copy per child who will be using it), this month you will need (see the Craft and Recipe Sections for specifics on each): Ingredients Whole Nutmegs Raw Honey Whole Milk Egg yolks Heavy cream 3 Written and Illustrated by Kristine Brown © 2012 Kristine Brown Note to Parents Whipped cream Apricot Kernel or Sweet Almond oil Nutmeg Essential oil Supplies Small bowl Spoon Wash cloth Saucepan Whisk Mugs Nutmeg grater Mini Crock pot Cheesecloth and strainer Bottle Label Tea cup Tea ball Directly after this note is the calendar. If you’re not sure how to incorporate Herbal Roots into your daily learning routine, use the calendar as a way to get started. Subscribers have found this to be a great starting point whether they are homeschoolers trying to fit Herbal Roots Zine and herbal learning into their daily school routine or public/private schoolers trying to fit a few minutes of herbal learning into their hectic after school routine. My hope is that this calendar will be a starting point to get kids exploring herbs on their own and learn to bring a bit of herbal joy into their everyday lives. Be sure to check in with our blog! Every Monday we offer a giveaway. You can sign up for a chance to win all sorts of great items including wooden animals, clay pendants and a free issue of Herbal Roots Zine. Also, to new subscribers, I’d like to suggest investing in a binder of some sort to put these monthly sheets in. One per child if possible so they can each have their own little herbal book. They’ll be pasting actual samples of the herbs in here along with keeping a journal of all their thoughts and explorations of each particular herb. That will create a 4 Written and Illustrated by Kristine Brown © 2012 Kristine Brown Note to Parents wonderful memory to last through the schooling lifetime! They are building an herbal foundation of knowledge to be used for the rest of their lives. These are real herbs that can be found almost anywhere or grown very easily. Having this knowledge is very powerful and will stay with them for a lifetime! A great way to introduce Herbal Roots zine is to have them decorate a cover page for their own binder. You can also download a ready made binder cover on our website at: http://www.herbalrootszine.com/freebies/. You might also consider having them make a Herbarium if they haven’t already. Directions can be found on our website. Look for the link on the left hand column of the page! Most of all, have fun. Learn, explore, discover, taste and dream. The herbs are playful and we should be too.

Nutmeg is often used in sweet, spicy dishes such as custards, pies, cookies and other treats as well as some savory dishes. We traditionally use Nutmeg this time of year for more than just his good taste; Nutmeg was added to food intentionally to spread ‘good cheer’ as he has an antidepressant effect on people. Nutmeg is an evergreen tree known botanically as Myristica fragrans. He is in the Myristaceae family. Nutmeg is the seed of the Nutmeg tree. Mace also comes from the Nutmeg tree and is the red coating that wraps around the hard shell of the Nutmeg seed.

    THE VISION OF ALIENATION An analytical approach to the works of Patrick White through the first four novels by WILLIAM GERALD SCHERMBRUCKER B.A., University of Cape Town, 1957 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF Master of Arts in the Department of English We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA May, 1966 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall, make it freely available for reference and -. study, I further agree that permission., for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the Head of my Department or by his representatives'.

Department of..^^ The University of British Columbia Vancouver 8, Canada 17th August, 1966. Date ii ABSTRACT This study of Patrick White's work is chiefly concerned with the first four novels, but refers also to some poetry, the short stories, the plays and the three later novels. It traces the development of themes and techniques in these four novels in terms of artistic vision and the rendering of that vision. The early, experimental works, up to The Living and the Dead are treated at considerable length, chiefly to show how the later developments are basically improve• ments and variations on the themes and techniques which have already been used. A second reason for the length of this part of the treatment is that, in the existing criticism of White, these early works are almost entirely ignored.

  • Nutmeg, Myristica Fragrans Tips
    Recipes Nutmeg, Myristica fragrans Tips: • Grate nutmeg with a nutmeg grater or the fines blade of a box grater just before using for best flavor. • Add ground nutmeg towards the end of cooking because heat will diminish the flavor. • To test a whole nutmeg for freshness, insert a needle approximately 1 centimeter into the whole nut. A tiny drop of oil will seep out if the nut is fresh. • Store whole nutmegs, tightly sealed in a cool, dark location.

  • RECIPES MY FIRST WATERMELON GRANITA YIELD: 8 to 10 Servings Kitchengrade K
    RECIPES MY FIRST WaTERMELON GRANITA YIELD: 8 to 10 servings KitchenGRADE K This is the first granita I ever made, way back when. I still remember how excited I was to see how easy and fun it was to make this delicious frozen dessert, similar to a sorbet or Italia ice, without any special machines or gadgets. You’ll see—it’s like a little bit of magic. Ingredients • 6 cups peeled and seeded watermelon chunks (from about a 4 pound slice of watermelon) • ¾ cup sugar • 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lime juice Tools p cutting board p chef’s knife p paring knife p reamer or juicer p measuring cups and spoons p blender or food processor p medium mixing bowl p fork Directions 1. Place the watermelon chunks in the bowl of a blender or food processor, replace the top, and blend on high speed until very smooth, about 1 ½ to 2 minutes. Turn the blender off. 2. Transfer the watermelon puree to a mixing bowl and add the sugar and lime juice. 3. Stir with a wooden spoon until the sugar is completely dissolved, 2 to 3 minutes. 4. Transfer the mixing bowl to the freezer and freeze for 30 minutes. 5. Remove the bowl from the freezer and use a fork to scrape any ice crystals from the sides of the bowl. Stir to incorporate the crystals. Return to the freezer. 6. Repeat this scraping procedure every 30 minutes, or until the consistency is “snowy” when scraped with a fork or spoon, at least 4 hours.

The first, in 1963, was the catalogue of the exhibition American Art from Amer­ ican Collections. I should like to take this opportunity to express grati­ tude to all who have worked long and hard to produce the checklist. To the Friends of the American Wing goes my deep appreciation for their continued interest and support. James Biddle Curator, American Wing December 1967 Th e research for this checklist was initiated as a class project for my course in American Decorative Arts offered jointly by the Metropolitan Museum and Columbia University. Subse­ quently it was expanded with aid from the New York State Council on the Arts and the Museum's Friends of the Ameri­ can Wing. I wish to thank not only these organizations, but also Patricia Fitzgerald Mandel and Elizabeth Stuart Gerry, who, working under their sponsorship, arranged the data into its present form; my thanks go also to the students who did so much of the necessary field work. The project could not have been accomplished without the devoted cooperation of the following colleagues: Marvin D. Schwartz of the Brooklyn Museum, Carolyn Scoon of the New-York Historical Society, Margaret Stearns of the Museum of the City of New York, and Berry B.
