Artist Paints Ocean Stones With Thousands Of Tiny Dots To Create Colorful Mandalas

Etsy | elspethmclean | Facebook

Elspeth McLean, an Australian artist based in Canada, creates hypnotizing paintings of mandalas on smooth and perfectly round ocean stones that will soothe your soul and fill your wold with color. She paints her beautiful explosions of color with tiny dots, which makes her works even more symmetrical and soothing.

Her rocks are insanely popular, and sell out of her Etsy shop very quickly! But she also has tons of other artwork, so be sure to take a look!

Raw Pumpkin Pie, the Real Deal!

Crust:

1 cup sprouted buckwheat (substitute almonds if preferred)

1/3 cup ground flax

1 cup shredded coconut, unsweetened

1 cup soft dates (soak in water if dry)

1/4 cup raw cacao nibs

1/4 cup raw coconut oil

2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp himalayan salt

Filling:

2 cups raw cashews, soaked

1 cup fresh pumpkin juice 

1/2 cup maple syrup (or liquid sweetener of your choice)

2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp turmeric

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp ginger

1/4 tsp cloves

1/2 cup raw coconut oil, melted

Directions:

For crust, in a food processor process buckwheat, coconut flakes, flax, coconut, salt, and cinammon until fine texture is reached. Add in the cacao nibs, coconut oil, and lastly drop in dates one at a time while processor is running. Process until the mixture holds together. Press crust into a springform pan oiled with coconut oil beforehand. 

For filling, juice an entire sugar pie pumpkin to get 1 cup of juice (if you don’t have a juicer, blend the chopped pumpkin in a high-speed blender with some water, and strain the juice through a nut-milk bag). Save the seeds and pulp for future creations! Add cashews, pumpkin juice, maple syrup, and spices to a blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Add the coconut oil last, ideally while the blender is running. When coconut oil is fully incorporated and the texture is super yummy and smooth, pour the filling on top of the crust. Smooth with a spatula if necessary. 

Save the stem of your sugar pie pumpkin for decorating if you like! 

Freeze the pie for at least 3-4 hours to fully set up. Move to refridgerator 1-2 hours before planning to serve to allow it to thaw. Slice and serve, and fully enjoy this incredible pumpkin pie! 

Serves 12-16 using an 8 inch springform pan. 

Angela says: This truly tastes like REAL pumpkin pie!!! Without the sugar, dairy, eggs, or gluten, using only the purest of ingredients. If you can let this pie sit at room temperature for about 1/2 an hour before serving, the texture will be just perfect. This pie is creamy, comforting, and ‘tis the season! It’s been a major hit over the last three holiday seasons- a true crowd pleaser. Make sure to add in lots of light and love to your creation while you make it- it truly makes a difference. Enjoy!

~THE NAMING OF CATS by TS Eliot~ The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter, It isn’t just one of your holiday games; You may think at first I’m as mad as a hatter When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES. First of all, there’s the name that the family use daily, Such as Peter, Augustus, Alonzo or James, Such as Victor or Jonathan, George or Bill Bailey – All of them sensible everyday names. There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter, Some for the gentlemen, some for the dames: Such as Plato, Admetus, Electra, Demeter – But all of them sensible everyday names. But I tell you, a cat needs a name that’s particular, A name that’s peculiar, and more dignified, Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular, Or spread out his whiskers, or cherish his pride? Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum, Such as Munkustrap, Quaxo, or Coricopat, Such as Bombalurina, or else Jellylorum- Names that never belong to more than one cat. But above and beyond there’s still one name left over, And that is the name that you never will guess; The name that no human research can discover – But THE CAT HIMSELF KNOWS, and will never confess. When you notice a cat in profound meditation, The reason, I tell you, is always the same: His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name: His ineffable effable Effanineffable Deep and inscrutable singular Name.
