Zazen Boutique Resort & Spa is ideally located at the end of the gorgeous Bophut Beach, on the northern side of the fame Samui Island. The alluring resort lies merely 15 minutes' drive away from Samui Airport, and just 5-minute walk to the Fisherman Village where chic restaurants and characteristic boutiques can be found. Each uniquely designed bungalow houses the serene spot on the beachfront amongst lush tropical gardens, with up-market furnishings, and the latest entertainment systems. All spacious guestrooms come fully equipped with state of the art amenities and private balcony. The resort offers Wi-Fi access, outdoor pool, delectable beachfront restaurant, wedding services, spa & massage, yoga class, and Thai cooking lessons.
One of the main reasons we chose Zazen for our stay in Koh Samui is because of its smaller size and more intimate feel. All of the staff are excellent including the Spa where a wonderful range of options are available. The restaurant is 1st class and ably run by Exec Chef Mattias who takes the time talk to guests each day. Wine selection is amazing but could be a bit pricey for some. We stayed in a beachfront bungalow which was great but has a bed on a raised platform which may not suit some eg. older guests. Some people did not appreciate the early morning starts by the neighbouring fishermens boats but it did not bother us and added to the charm. The beach is good, swimming is good and not too many people stroll past as its at one end of Bophut Beach. A few hawkers but not an issue. A great place to stay, unwind and be pampered!

Sinead O'Connor has stunned fans yet again – after cancelling her upcoming tour and quitting showbiz for good.
The Dublin singer says she is out of the music business 'forever' and just wants a normal job. But she does plan to honour one New York date this summer.
The mother-of-four says her bi-polar condition makes it impossible to tour the world anymore.
O'Connor said: "There is too much falseness and s**** about showbusiness. All bad triggers for a woman with a mental illness."
She made the latest announcement ahead of a gig in Germany on Sunday night.
The 45-year-old tweeted: "Ok. Am going home and cancelling touring for the year.
"Doc had asked me not to tour but I thought was stronger than am.
"Didn't wanna let anyone down as tour had already been booked to coincide with album release.
"Fact is I did have a v serious breakdown between dec and march and well . . am just not recovered enough to be on tour."
Recently split again from her fourth husband Barry Herridge, O'Connor was due to play 14 upcoming dates in Italy, Canada and the USA.
After calling off her Munich show she tweeted: "Am v sorry to let anyone down.
"But that's life with a mental illness. Pls tweet so Munich fans won't waste time turning up."

The Irish Sun reports that O'Connor's official website also confirmed the end of the tour 'with enormous regret'.
She wrote: "While touring will be cancelled I do hope and plan to appear at the Curtis Mayfield tribute in The Lincoln Centre (in New York) in July."
The singer also used her Twitter page to begin a search for a new non-showbiz related job.
She asked: "Any1 have a job 4 v clever woman with massive heart and courage, who adores people And has to escape music bizniz as is v bad for her?
"Must be Dublin or Wicklow based job and require love of people. NOT showbiz job.
"Too many power games behind ur back. And manipulations of one attempted.
"The singing part was fun though. But that's only like 4% of one's time . . The rest? Meh.
"This is the happiest day of my life. No more s****. Ever."

Clarifications on Project Coach Program• August 8, 2013 Share:
In a story published Aug. 7 on the Wabash College website, the relationship between programs developing and sponsoring the STEP-UP and Project Coach Programs was inaccurate.
STEP-UP® and Coach is not part of or related to Project Coach developed at Smith College. STEP-UP® and Coach was developed by The Salisbury Foundation and "STEP-UP®" is a registered trademark owned by The Salisbury Foundation.
Step-Up and Coach seeks to provide inner-city young men with an opportunity to explore their talents and interests related to coaching, all while learning about college life.
Activities during the program included a weekend training Academy, a focus on coaching at the Montgomery County Boys and Girls Club, daily coach critiquing sessions and personal development classes like discussion of Wabash College's Gentleman's Rule and Track and Field Coach Clyde Morgan's Brother to Brother program. The basics of college preparedness were also part of the program.

Spanking New Brand!
"These Click watches are probably the nerdiest timepieces we have ever seen. And we love them."– Charlie Sorrel, Editor - Wired
These new watches are reaching back into the glory days of electronics for their inaugural Dip Switch and Turn Switch timepiece collections. If you look at the circuit boards of any 80's arcade game or electronic device, you'd find these switches. Designed to be used on a printed circuit board along with other electronic components and are commonly used to customize the behavior of an electronic device for specific situations.
Click Watches have ingeniously re-appropriated these 'retro-tronics' into an entirely new way to show digital watch functions. Each mechanical switch activates a different function of the watch as seen in the diagrams in the product pages. Functions ranging from bar graph metered time display, 12 hour and 24 hour digital time display, month, date, day of week and backlight. Stainless steel casing 42mm x 35mm. One of the best features is the actual circuit board packaging, see below...

Lincoln Mayor Don Wesely today encouraged Lincoln residents to attend activities surrounding the New York Memorial Ride, which will be in the Capitol City Monday, September 16. Hundreds of firefighters who are members of the International Wind and Fire Motorcycle Club are taking part in the motorcycle ride. New York firefighters asked the club to organize the ride to honor the firefighters and law enforcement officers who have died in the line of duty. More than a dozen New York firefighters are participating in the ride.
"We are very proud that five of our Lincoln firefighters were chosen to participate in this ride," said Mayor Wesely. "This is a great tribute to those brave firefighters and officers who died September 11 and to all fire and emergency professionals who risk their lives to save others."
At 6:45 p.m. Monday the riders will take part in a procession from State Fair Park to the north side of the State Capitol. All motorcycle riders in law enforcement and fire services are invited to join the procession. A memorial service is scheduled at the State Capitol at 7:10 p.m., and the riders will then have a procession to the Firefighters Reception Hall, 241 Victory Lane for a private function.
The 11-day ride has included a meeting September 10 with riders from the Fire Department of New York for a midnight ride to Ground Zero. On September 11, they presented a plaque to New York Fire Station 10. On September 12, they attended a memorial service at the Pentagon, and on September 13 the Virginia State Patrol escorted them through Arlington Cemetery. From there, they went to the crash site of Flight 93 in Pennsylvania.
On September 17, the riders will leave Lincoln for their final destination - the Memorial for Fallen Firefighters in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The name of Lincoln Firefighter Harley Grasmick is inscribed on the memorial, and the name of Lincoln Fire Inspector Jack Bruns will be inscribed this year. Their sons - Captain Jeff Grasmick and Firefighter Alan Bruns - are participating in the ride. The other Lincoln riders are Firefighter Mike Green, Paramedic Develon Puckett and Firefighter Bryan Kratochvil, who is a Memorial Ride Road Guard.

Profile on Society Member: Phil JonesComments Off on Profile on Society Member: Phil Jones
May 22, 2012 Ephemera Society
Ephemerists who joke lightly about the existence of a "collecting gene" need look no further than Philip Jones for evidence of such an inherited trait.
"My mother was a collector," Jones said during a break in his buying at the Ephemera 25 paper fair. "She liked antiques. My father, though, was an accumulator – everything from old felt boots to leather scraps.When we cleaned out his shop, it took us three months."
Jones himself didn't start collecting until illustrated letter sheets sparked his interest in 1949 as a 31 year old. Jones's collection ranges from the 1820s to the early 20thcentury and covers everything from automobiles to zeppelins. His interest in the graphics of these ornate sheets gradually shifted to an interest in the letters' contents.
"That was back when you could get a whole box of letters for almost nothing," Jones recalls. "A Boston dealer used to send me shoeboxes filled with them. He had no interest in the contents, but for me it was like digging in a gold mine."
How many letters Jones has collected is anybody's guess, but they certainly number in the thousands. They need not be from the famous, in fact most of them were written by, as Jones says, "common folk now lost to the ages, but whose toil and contribution to daily life added together give us our present-day America."
As drifts of paper began filling the family home near Shelton, CT, Jones began sharing his passion with his wife, Elisabeth, two sons, and a daughter, Sandi.
"Dad was interested in letters about the Mormons, the California gold rush, slavery, and the Civil War," Sandi Jones says. "I can remember him reading letters to us at the dinner table. I was enthralled and sometimes what he was reading to us matched what we were learning in school. I think that's why I'm still fascinated by social history."
Jones has had better luck prospecting than most of those who sought their fortune in the California gold fields. There is, he says, generally a redeeming paragraph, a nugget, in nearly every letter. They may be joyful, sad, funny, or define historic moments in the everyday words of random witnesses. Take this letter from Flora Hahn dated in April 1865:
"Dear Cousin,
"We moved to the farm three days before Lincoln was killed . . . as we rode through WashingtonI don't know as I saw a house but that was draped in mourning . . . The top of the coffin was perfectly covered with white flowers . . . I cannot say I thought he looked natural ."
The saddest, Jones recalls, are those written about the death of a child. He offers one from the 1840s written by a Maine woman who ventured outside to pick a basket of apples. She returned in a few minutes and found her daughter dead. The letter begins: "Oh, Mother, the story I have to tell you!"
"With letters, you can put yourself in the writer's place," Jones continues, "the life they led, the company they kept . . . many of them were struggling, but they had courage, they were going to stick to it, make it go."
Jones says he enjoys these anonymous messages from the past mainly because each tells "a good story." But sometimes it's hard to appreciate those good stories without having lived one yourself, like running a farm that has been occupied by seven generations of Joneses, each one (with the exception of the newest toddler) committed to "making it go."
His great grandfather, also named Philip Jones, sailed from Ireland in the 1840s to visit his brother in Connecticut. After storms, calms, and seasickness with rations reduced to beans, his great grandfather vowed to stay rather than endure the return voyage. He worked and saved his money for 10 years before starting a farm about 15 miles north of Long Island Sound that eventually grew to 300 acres and now totals 400 acres.
It was Jones that made the switch from a dairy operation to a tree farm, and, he says, many people thought he was "a little hooty" when he borrowed $50 from his grandfather and planted 6,000 trees back in the late '30s. Today there are more than a quarter million trees at any one time and Connecticut families flock there each December to cut their own, or take the easy way out with a pre-cut tree.
"I didn't like being tied to a cow's tail," Jones says with a smile. "It was too demanding. I don't want to offend anyone, but I've heard it said that the only thing stupider than a cow is the man that owns one."
His son, Terry, expanded the farm by planting strawberries, blueberries, and pumpkins and manages the farm with his wife, Jean. A Jones grandson, a Cornell plant science graduate, has started a family winery. Jones' other son, Dan, hasn't strayed far from the fold. He owns a landscaping business and garden-oriented gift store in Denver, CO. Jones' great grandson is the seventh generation.
Beside his collections of letters, illustrated letter sheets, a separate collection of Charles Magnus letter sheets, rewards of merit, hidden object cards, and miniature books, Jones also has retained a few outstanding examples from his valentine collection. In the 1980s, Jones said he was in demand as an "entertainment lecturer" on the history of valentines. Speaking to groups was interesting for a few years, but he finally had had enough of it.
"At convalescent and retirement homes, my talks seemed to evoke two reactions," Jones remembers. "They were either of great interest, or a tonic that put the rest into a deep sleep."
The valentines were sold through auction houses, partly to make room for more ephemera. Jones admits to living in "Clutterville," but says there is some order to the chaos. He also claims to "have stopped buying," but was seen leaving Ephemera 25 clutching several bags from different dealers.
And has the collecting gene been passed on? Unlike some diseases, it appears not to skip generations. Sandi Jones joined the Ephemera Society at Ephemera 25 and paid $5 extra for a family membership so she and her husband could both gain early admission to next year's paper fair.
Jones raised his eyebrows and gave a knowing wink as if he'd just hooked a trout he'd been teasing with the same fly for years.
"She's intrigued now," he says. "Before she came to the show, she didn't understand what we were all about.

Learning Index >> Hand-blockprinted Textiles: Phyllis Barron and Dorothy Larcher
However, in 1930 Barron and Larcher arrived in the Cotswolds 'thirsting for more colours' and in addition to experimenting with new synthetic dyes, they also developed overprinting, no longer faced with the economic constraints of the 1920s which had meant they often kept to single colour prints.{8} (No. 1)

Poteau freshmen girls reach title game of own tournament, but Pirates fall to Sallisaw
It looked for a while Thursday night that the host Poteau Pirates and Lady Pirates were going to make it to Saturday afternoon's championship games of the Poteau Freshmen Tournament, which is taking place at Sherman Floyd Fieldhouse.The Lady Pirates did make Saturday afternoon's 2 p.m. championship game against Muldrow as Poteau was too much for the Sallisaw Lady Black Diamonds in posting a 52-21 victory in Thursday night's semifinal contest. The Lady Bulldogs edged the Wilburton Lady Diggers 36-34 in the other semifinal.Unfortunately, the same could not be said for the Pirates. A late Sallisaw rally snatched a Poteau win away as the Black Diamonds prevailed 28-25 in their semifinal contest. The Black Diamonds will face Roland in Saturday afternoon's 3 p.m. title game as the Rangers handled the Muldrow Bulldogs 36-25 in the other semifinal.Poteau's boys will meet Muldrow at 1 p.m. Saturday for third place.Saturday's consolation championship games will have LeFlore County teams involved. The boys consolation championship contest will be an all-county one as Heavener will meet Spiro at 11 a.m. Spiro's girls will face Roland at 10 a.m. for the girls consolation championship.

What Is Serendipity?
by John F. Christman
The word "serendipity" came into our language from a story by Sir Horace Walpole, who told of three princes of a mythical place called Serendip (or Serendib, an ancient name for Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka). In the story, the princes were always having accidents, but the accidents always had a happy outcome. We now use serendipity to refer to discoveries made by accident. We are not sure why discoveries in astronomy, biology, chemistry, and physics are accompanied by this bit of luck, but it is almost always there.
Charles Darwin and the Theory of Evolution
One kind of luck or serendipity in science involves simply being the right person in the right place at the right time. A clear example of this is British naturalist Charles Darwin, who proposed the theory of evolution by means of natural selection. Darwin was a quiet individual, from a family of noted physicians. Charles did not want to be a physician or a minister, the respected professions of the day, so he studied natural history at Cambridge.
Somewhat as an afterthought, Darwin was invited to join the crew of the HMS Beagle on its second voyage, which set sail in 1831. Most people are not aware of the purpose of this voyage. A new clock had just been invented that would work aboard a ship. It had been installed on the Beagle, so for the first time it would be possible to know both the exact longitude and latitude of all the ports of call. Previous maps had just been good guesses.
Over the next five years, the Beagle circled the globe, giving Darwin the opportunity (when he wasn't seasick) to see a remarkable diversity of plant and animal life that only a few others had seen before. He was especially intrigued by the fact that on the Galápagos Islands off the coast of Ecuador, there were at least 14 different species of finches, none of which existed anywhere else on Earth. Darwin guessed that over a long period of time an original species of finch must have modified into new species. He had observed that each species ate different foods.
On his return, Darwin wrote a book about the voyage that became a bestseller and brought him some degree of fame. He began to think about the process of natural selection; that is, the way nature rewards those individuals of the species that are able to control the food supply by aggressiveness, size, ability to diversify the diet, or a host of other factors. He continued to collect examples of natural selection and began another book in 1844. In 1859, he published On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life. It is the most widely published science book in history, with editions in every major language.
We can see the importance of luck in Darwin's discovery. How many people could afford to give five years to an expedition just to see the world? Would another naturalist have seen what Darwin saw? Surely between 1831 and 1993 somebody would have found Darwin's finches, but on the voyage of the Beagle, as luck would have it, the time was right, the place was right, and the man was right. As a result, the world will never be the same.
- naturalist: A person who studies plants and animals.
- What does the word "serendipity" mean?
[anno: An accident with a good outcome.]
- What was serendipitous about Darwin's discoveries on the Galápagos Islands?
[anno: He happened to come across 14 different kinds of finches. Since he had training in natural history, he would have known how to look at the situation from a scientific point of view. Thus there was luck of a trained natural historian seeing the finches.]
- Why do you think that luck is sometimes involved in scientific discoveries? Write a paragraph explaining your opinion.
[anno: Answers will vary.]

You are the one who hears about all this first. I hope this start to a Monday morning does not ruin your week.
A side note: It seems as though every major and som eminor updates to the NI web pages and the Forum result in a lot of errors or at least unintended consequences. Maybe you (and Lithium) need to figure a way to do some live beta testing before turning these mosters loose.

Vermont is a long way for international students and families to travel, but well worth the effort and expense if you can manage it. You'll meet professors, see where you'll be living, and get a feel for the St. Mike's ethos. Spend some time in Burlington as well, as it could be your home for four years. Be sure to let me know when you're coming and I'll help you plan your trip.
I really enjoy meeting international students and their families in their home country and learning about where they're from.
Find something about Saint Michael's that makes you to want to study here and tell us about it.
I've been repeatedly impressed by the maturity and leadership of students of St. Mike's. Particularly those who choose to be a part of things like the Fire and Rescue Team, the MOVE office for volunteering and social justice, and the Wilderness-Program, but really in all parts of the college. If you have an idea, interest, or passion, at St. Mike's you'll have the support and encouragement to take it as far as it can go.

Beneath the high ceilings of DOM restaurant in Sao Paulo, a waiter approaches the white linen table.
He's bringing the fifth of a 16-course tasting menu. On the plate sit two glistening oysters, each one in its own shell shaped bowl and covered in colorful trimmings.
"Now, we have two kinds of oyster," says DOM chef Alex Atala. "Here, the first one is a fresh oyster with copoacu. It's a fruit from Amazonia with mango. The second one is a grilled oyster with marinated tapioca and salmon eggs."
These are ingredients and flavors from the Amazon. Atala travels there three or four times a year to find his ingredients. When he's not so busy in the kitchen, he explains why he's so fixated on native gastronomic culture. It has to do with Brazil's — and South America's — history of being colonized.
"As a colonized country, we always have more eyes for foreigner culture than our own culture," he said. "And I'm super happy that nowadays people start to be proud to be Brazilian, to be 'Amazonic,' to be South American, to be Latin American."
One of his projects is building up small-scale producers. He brings out a Tupperware container and even before he opens it, you can smell the vanilla.
"It is amazing. A beautiful, not strong aroma. It almost reminds me of tobacco," he said.
Inside the box are vanilla beans as long as bananas. They grow wild in the Amazon, where monkeys snack on them. Atala says he is working with local women to domesticate the vanilla bearing orchids in their homes.
"This woman can produce this beautiful vanilla for us and we can pay a beautiful price for helping their lives. The right people can be a very important social benefit, economic benefit and cultural benefit," he said. "And in the end, it can also be an environmental benefit as well."
He may pay a "beautiful" price for this Amazon-grown fare. But not that many Brazilians can afford to eat at his restaurant. A dinner at DOM can cost a few hundred dollars. But Atala has another project that could introduce new flavors to people who might have a little less money to spend.
Just down the street from DOM is Atala's small market, Mercadinho Dalva e Dito. It sells specialty items like chocolate pudding made from Amazonian cacao and cachaca liquor that numbs your mouth.
Priscilla Neto was visiting from another part of Brazil and wandered into the market. She says it's a different place with different things, things she has never heard about.
And it's Mariana Aires' job to talk to customers about the unfamiliar foods.
"People often come in and ask me what to do with certain ingredients," she said. "I explain to them where these things come from and how to prepare dishes that are new to them. People end up eating in a more conscious way."
The market isn't cheap — think organic farmer's market prices. And there aren't a ton of products. But Atala's market is one of the first efforts to do something novel: formalize the process of bringing small-scale farmers' products from the Amazon to cities in a sustainable fashion, and then brand the goods.
It's not an easy undertaking. But it doesn't hurt to have international celebrity name recognition behind it.

Bible verses along the roads
|"Remember thy Creator in thy youth."
|"Choose this day whom you will serve."
The signs are written in English so they can be read by most people who pass by. But actually, the Mennonites usually read the Bible in German. Their Heilege Schrift (Holy Scriptures) is/are written in "Bible German," a form of High German that's different from the Pennsylvania Dutch they speak at home. Mennonite children learn Bible German along with English, as part of their education.
|"Honor thy father and mother."
But let me get back to the signs around the neighborhood. I respect our neighbors for trying to "be a good light". (A Mennonite neighbor lady, telling me how Mennonites should live, used that phrase.) But I do wish they'd put the signs on posts instead of nailing them to trees. These trees growing wild in the fence rows aren't particularly valuable, and they'll probably survive the nails, but it still bothers me. I hate to see things nailed to living trees, no matter who does the nailing.
|"Repent & be converted that your sins may be blotted out."
"God will judge the world in righteousness."

A plethora of Indian Financial publications are reporting that Hero MotoCorp has bought a 49.2% stake in Erik Buell Racing for $25 million. Hero MotoCorp is India's largest two-wheel manufacturer, and for a year now has partnered with Erik Buell Racing for technical development, as well as sponsoring the American company's AMA Pro Road Racing team for the past two seasons.
Today's news confirms numerous rumors we have heard about the Hero investing in EBR. Acquiring only 49.2% of Erik Buell Racing, Hero has only a minority stake in EBR, and while we cannot confirm the information, we would imagine that the odd 49.2% ownership was done to keep Erik Buell as the majority shareholder in his company.

I recently had the pleasure of participating in a panel discussion entitled, "The Great BIM versus GIS Debate". This 90-minute session in front of a packed room was moderated by Matt Ball (@SpatialSustain) and proved to be a lively (and sometimes heated) discussion between myself (@engis), Pete Southwood (@Geo_Pete) and members of the audience. Issues addressed in the debate encompassed technology; data accuracy, access, integration and analysis; collaboration and efficiency; and the future of GIS and BIM.
I introduced this debate during a previous blog post which you can find here. However, if you were unable to attend or simply want to review some of the highlights, I encourage you to check-out the following:
Dale Lutz (@DaleAtSafe) posted his thoughts on the debate here. Although there was no clear knock-out punch by either opponent, he did include a list of the best (and some would say hilarious) "zingers".
Matt Ball (@SpatialSustain) posted his thoughtful perspectives of the debate here. His great summary covers "Concepts or Tools", "Point of Truth" and "Integrated Infrastructure Information".
I've also posted a replay of "The Great BIM versus GIS Debate" to YouTube. For those of you wanting to review the debate in its entirety, I've made a recording of the complete 90-minute session which I divided into chapters which you can access via the links below:

PingMe, the popular, free messaging service is departing from BlackBerry and Windows Phone. The cross-platform service has had an app available for Windows Phone since March earlier this year. It's unfortunate to see the company halt development for the platform, especially since Microsoft has only just launched Windows Phone 8.
So what does all this mean for Windows Phone owners who use the service? Apps available for both BlackBerry and Windows Phone will no longer be compatible with the service from December 31, 2012. So the team has chosen to focus all development power on Android and the iPhone, leaving users on Microsoft's mobile platform ping-less.
Here's the official statement from PingMe:
"We're sad to announce that we will no longer support BlackBerry and Windows Phone devices. Starting December 31, 2012, service on both platforms will no longer be compatible with newer versions of PingMe. After long deliberation, our team decided that it is crucial for us to focus on making our iPhone and Android apps the best they can possibly be.
It saddens us to leave you PingMe-less, but we hope you'll understand why we had to make this tough decision. Thank you for your tremendous support and encouragement."
The good news is there are other apps available, including both Kik and WhatsApp.
Thanks, Matthew Chamberlain, for the tip!

Hi there!
The winner of my giveaway last week is....
This weekend I had a little time to play with some more of the fun techniques from Jennifer's Inspiration Showcase class. This time I used the traditional resist technique with VersaMark ink and glossy paper. And I also got to ink up the new Artistic Circles stamp that I've been dying to play with.
Such a simple technique, but I love it! It's great be reminded of techniques I learned way back when I first started making cards.
Thanks for stopping by!

Featured Ingredient: Mulberries and Kamut flour
Well, this will be last Muffin Tin Mania post for a few weeks as Tabi and I get ready to depart on Saturday for a self-supported cycling trip in the mountains of Thailand and Laos. So I thought I would go out in style and feature two really cool ingredients you may want to work into more of your baked goods.
Most people know that silk worms love to nosh on the leaves of mulberry trees, but not a lot of North Americans have sunk their teeth into the delicious fruits they produce. You won't find fresh mulberries here, but the dried ones are increasingly popping up in stores. Among their many nutritional highlights is a bonanza of vitamin C. With sniffle season in full-swing, you'll want to make sure that you load up your diet with vitamin C rich edibles. Mulberries are also a surprising source of iron to keep energy levels up.
Each bite unleashes an amazing burst of sweetness – truly one of natures candies. I've seen dried mulberries at my local bulk shop but turn to the fine folks over at Navitus Naturals for a reliable source. Add them to baked good batters, oatmeal, pancakes and yogurt.
Khorasan wheat, which is most often sold under the brand KAMUT®, is an ancient Egyptian wheat and a great alternative to standard wheat flour. It is a heirloom wheat with a natural sweetness that contains a higher percentage of nutrients than today's hybridized standard wheat. Though it contains gluten, some with wheat sensitivities have reported better tolerance to KAMUT® flour. It is also grown organically and never genetically modified to further up its health cachet.
You've probably seen KAMUT® pasta, which is truly one of the more delicious options out there, but look for the flour as well at well-stocked bakery and health food stores.
It tends to absorb more water during cooking, so make sure your batter is nice and moist. For this reason, I added the additional water in this recipe. You can peruse http://www.kamut.com/ to learn more.
I incorporated some pear mash to add natural sweetness and moisture allowing the highly spiced muffins to have less fat and added sweetener. You can also use pureed apples, if desired.
Try one or both of these unconventional items and let me know what your judgment is.
Kamut Mulberry Muffins
2 pears, peeled and diced
1 cup Kamut flour or other flour of choice
1 cup quick cooking rolled oats
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ginger powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1/2 cup palm or other sugar of choice
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup water
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup dried mulberries
In a small saucepan, cook pears until very moist. Mash pears with a fork or potato masher and set aside to cool.
Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, combine flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and salt.
In a separate bowl, light beat eggs and combine with pear puree, sugar, vegetable oil, water and vanilla. Stir dry ingredients into wet and fold in 3/4 cup mulberries. Divide mixture among 12 muffin cups and top batter with remaining mulberries. Bake for 20 minutes or until a tester comes out clean. Let cool before unmolding.
