NOW ONTO CHAT 😊

AHHHHHH December my favorite month. Not because of the holidays but because I finish up my yearly shows and know that I do not start them again till mid April. That allows me to work directly from home till then 😊 I had a FANTASTIC year all around and I'll talk more about that in the Personal Year [seasons] in the Spiritual column below. I do this every year so that those who want to set their goals under the correct energy can. Now 2023, my five Personal Year season, and based upon the fact I worked INCREDIBLE hard for the first four seasons [2019 to 2022] I guaranteed myself an AWESOME year of things taking care of themselves. And they did 😊

I left off last month leaving for Grande Prairie and once again a fantastic show with DRY roads there and back. Hotel was upgraded for FREE!! And here is the funny part. On my drive up to Grande Prairie I had decided that once I got to my hotel I would pay extra for an upgrade since it was my last show, and the year was FANTASTIC, except for two shows that I now have dropped. Getting to the check in I was then informed I had been upgraded to a suite for free. 😊

Once home I rested all day after I had unpacked the van and all I did was watch Suits on Netflix to the very end. I wrote about this show in last months newsletter. Sent out the MP3 recordings and chilled as I said.

Now I always arrange my life with rest and relaxation in December as I wake up with a massive smile and know I have the long leisurely days ahead of me to do as I darn well please 😊 I still book clients at my home office but do so on the days I wish to work 😊 AND!! As the Universe never disappoints when you put effort into life, I had another busy month to end 2023.

December 4th warranted another day of rest BUT!!! I really go out of my way to enjoy December and make a pact to watch the cheesy Hallmark movies and anything else that I wish to watch. So, after getting groceries that day I settled in and watched Family Switch which stars Jennifer Garner. I quite enjoyed it 😊

NOW!! Those who know me know I hate shopping and so when I need something first I make a list. Then I go right to what I need and purchase it. I never deter from the point of what I am going to get. On the 5th I went to get my sons’ Christmas gift of collective hockey cards. He has boxes and boxes of them and does not open them. Meaning they go up in value when they remain unopened. Across the street from the store is Cactus and I whipped over and bought a gift certificate for my granddaughter’s boyfriend who sadly did not come up this year. His parents were sad last year without him so this year he stayed back with them [They all live in Vancouver] Then I settled down and watched the movie A Fantastic Christmas.

Reads started up on the 6th and then after doing the work I sat down and watched Selling Sunset that I have to say is getting worse and worse. I enjoyed the first few seasons but the last two? YUK!! BORING!! Then onto The Amazing Race as I LOVE that show and have watched it for many many years. I so want to go to Thailand and especially after watching these Amazing Race episodes.

AND!!! On the 7th one of my students from my magic classes and tarot on Zoom came into Alberta to visit her sister. They drove all the way to my house and had readings first. Then the three of us headed down to Padmanadi’s [the vegan restaurant] where we met up with another two buddies and enjoyed a lovely meal. Home and then they rented my suite for the night. They left on Friday morning the 8th and sadly I had already booked two reads that day before I knew they would be staying overnight. I say sadly as I had wanted to prepare a vegan breakfast for them British style. But we had coffee instead and off they went, and I got ready for my two clients.

Back to yoga on the 9th and a day of rest where my choice of movies were Office Christmas Party and Leave the World Behind. An interesting movie that Leave the World Behind was. If you have Netflix give it a watch 😊

Ahhh yes, a full resting day on the 10th with John Wicks 4 being watched. Oh, and I do other stuff too like putting dishes in the dishwasher, taking care of China as always, meditation and more 😊 BUT!! With a lovely peaceful energy as there is nothing to think about business wise. All is calm all is peaceful 😊

AND!! On the 11th I braved West Edmonton Mall. I chose Monday hoping it would be quieter and it was 😊 I finished up the Christmas shopping and stopped at Home Depot and purchased enough bird seed to take me through the winter for the birds who eat at the feeder every day. Then to the liquor store to grab Baileys [vegan] and Baileys full cream for the g ’kids plus black sambuca. I always buy my wine at the Grande Prairie show from Shady. They have sweet and all different colored wines. I purchased 10 bottles, and I had another 3 at home that I bought earlier. The wine and liquor being for the Christmas dinner that I host on Boxing Day. Movie for this day was Holidate 😊

 

Massive read on the 12th then settling down to the movie of the day Lovehard 😊

The 13th brought one more read and does not look like any movie was watched so I most likely was catching up on recorded stuff 😊 But know I still sat in rest mode😊 The 14th brought a ritual order from my webstore that was activated by me, and the movie of the day was The Night Before with Seth Rogan.

The 15th brought me back to yoga and three movies were watched that day. Holiday in the Wild [a real tearjerker] Who Killed Santa [ the most lamest thing I have ever watched] and Single All the Way. 😊

AND!!! I really wanted to check out the artistic show that so many vendors had told me about that is on ONE Saturday only for three weeks in December. I do not do one day shows [too much work to set up and tear down] but I really wanted to go there. Up early and off I head to The Enjoy Center in St Alberta. HOLY COW!! I get there and there are TONS of people, TONS of cars trying to find a parking spot and I am included in this line looking for parking. I drove slowly around the massive building then back out to the lower road and back up the hill to the overflow parking. NOTHING!! Not one spot opened up and I have little patience for that. The show will wait till next year I said to myself and off I drove back home with a wasted hour or so under my day. Back out to yoga at Noon and then back home to meet my friend who came over at 3pm and we drove down to Padmanadi again 😊 to meet up with my psychic friend Janice who works with me [I wrote about her last month] and her hubby Stuart.  This time we had booked a table for four for the Christmas Buffet that Padmanadi’s hosts every year. Therefore, a time limit of ninety minutes is put upon the table to eat. And the time flew by. Got home with my buddy around 6.30pm and proceeded to make tea. The she left and I watched my daily promised to myself movie 😊 Love at Frist Sight.

AND!! On the 17th because my yoga class offers livestream on some of the yoga classes I decided to stay home and do a class here. I LOVED it. I set up my Nuga Best heated tourmaline mat and put my yoga mat on top of it. Then I set my monitor up and followed along with the class. Some of the classes do not offer live steam but the ones that do appear to be the Yin Yoga and those are the classes I take 😊

Phone read all booked and paid for, but she forgot to call but later emailed with an apology and I rescheduled her.

NOW!! Knowing that I am setting a goal of staying home and taking care of my house starting in January and other than business I am not going to spend any personal money unless it is needed food [and I doubt that LOL] or raw meat for China nothing will get spent I headed down to the spice shop. The Silk Road on Whyte Avenue here in Edmonton. They import the BEST and freshest spices on the planet 😊 To cook tasty meals takes high quality spices and I always advise people to stock up once a year for new spices. I bought 15 bottles of their spices. They also create different spices to make up ones that taste spectacular on my vegan foods like soy curls or mushrooms when I wish to make a fried dish or other lovely tasty dishes. 😊 Then I headed to Blush Lane that is also on Whyte Avenue for my organic coffee. I drink ONE cup a day and never more. Why? I like the taste. One bag of 340 grams lasts me three weeks. I bought 9 bags and received a 10% discount. While I was there, I noticed that they stocked the plant-based sushi. I had seen this on a vegan site that I order from occasionally in Vancouver. But I had never ordered these. I grabbed 4 of them and I have to say they were OK but nothing I would create a WHOOPEE YO YO from as I tasted them LOL.. No, I would not buy them again as I make better sushi 😊   And onwards home to watch Bodyguard that I truly enjoyed. Now I have heard from many people that Breaking Bad was an excellent series. So, I decided to watch it. I watched the entire Episode One and I cannot for the life of me figure out why anyone thinks it is good. I found it lame, hard to watch and I only kept watching based upon what I had heard. I finally gave up after the first episode of all the series of the most ridiculous decisions from a science teacher deciding to make drugs and hook up with an idiot who rats on him and then he still goes out of his way to work with him. Such a dumb plot was my thought. Anyway, each to their own choosing when it comes to movies. 😊

The 19th I wrapped up almost all of my groceries and to my HORROR my vegan butter that I had stocked up on many months ago when I told everyone to stock up on food was DOUBLED in cost. I had finished up my 10 packs that freeze well and went to stock up again. Now this butter normally goes for $5.99 to $6.99 and it was $10.29. I kid you not. I was stunned. I bought two instead of stocking up. It is time to start making my own butter at home. The movies for this day were A Christmas Prince and Holiday in the Vineyard.

The 20th brought my rescheduled phone read and one more in person read in the evening. No movies that day as I caught up on more of the recorded stuff.

AND!! Recall last month where I had a house party with too many guests for me to read so I asked my buddy Janice to help. She is my long-time friend who worked many Fringes and other shows with me and then went onto weddings etc. WELL! She contacts me and asks if I am busy on the 21st. The winter Solstice. No, I am not. Do I want to do a house part with her out at Alberta beach? Yes I do and so that day I picked her up at 4.15pm and we headed out to a very enjoyable crowd of people who held this party at a restaurant. A nice toasty warm restaurant 😊 Then I drove her home and curled up in my nice warm bed and relaxed with China 😊

The 22nd I filled a large order from my web store and did a full Numerology chart via MP3 and sent it off. The I whipped out to yoga. AND!!! Lol I realised that I still needed coconut milk and flour for some recipes at Christmas, so I quickly went over to Save On Foods where to my absolute HORROR the place was packed with people and the line ups were down the aisles. If I had not needed this food badly, I would have left. BUT!! As the Angels are always looking over me, I quickly went to the flour aisle and the coconut milk aisle and grabbed those items. Came back to the HORRENDOUS line ups and made my way to the one ’15 items or less’’ and that too had a MASSIVE amount of people standing in it. BUT!! Then I see the open cash that has a sign ‘cash only’ and NO ONE was in it LOL. I kid you not. Unbeknownst to me the debit/credit/merchant machines had stopped working thus the LONG line ups of people just standing there unable to pay and get their HUGE number of groceries they had just shopped for. Delighted that I use cash I dropped my items on the runner, paid and left with a MASSIVE grin 😊 When machines own your cash you have no rights to it. Think about this. Start bringing cash back.

And my movie for that day was A Christmas Prince Wedding PLUS A Christmas Prince Baby 😊

Now the month still kept opening up bookings for me 😊 The 23rd brought one read in person and my movie for that day was Christmas Inheritance. AND!! Lastly the reads stopped on the 24th with one of my largest packages. Because I had booked her for 1pm without looking at my yoga schedule I did yoga online from Noon to 12.45 😊 Love the option of online. Then knowing my g ‘kids and son were coming on Christmas Day for stockings I made a yellow pea soup from the dried beans and vanilla and chocolate cupcakes with a buttercream icing. And my movie for the 24th Christmas Eve was Christmas Calendar. A bit of magic in that movie 😊

And that brings me to Christmas Day: Son and my g ‘kids arrived and we opened the stockings and my LARGE [I kid you not] gift was placed under the Yuca tree with all the other gifts that get opened on Boxing day when I host the meal. I know what it is 😊 I asked for the Vitamix food grinder thingy that takes the left-over food and makes it into compost for the garden. OK I’ll explain it later as today, right now is 11 am Boxing Day and I am planning what to do. Yoga??? Possible. Update: 😊 I did it from livestream that they send out 😊

Groceries Lol yes, knowing that I am hoping to stay home as much as possible and just work around the home I bought what is needed plus of course Christmas food. NOW!! I rarely rave about vegan meat just because there is now so much of it BUT!!! I ordered from vegansupply[.ca] a filet mignon PLUS a roast that I turned into a beef wellington for myself at my Christmas dinner. It is a new company in the USA but this Canadian vegan store supplier [all over Canada] imports it and there was an offer sent out. The company name is Juicy Marble if you wish to google it for suppliers and MAMA MIA holy toledo Lol it was FANTASTIC. I ordered the two items at the cost of $113.00 with delivery and it came promptly. The filet mignon had two so that was two meals and the beef wellington I made created 7 meals. [7 slices] Unbelievable how delicious it was. Next I bought coconut milk, flour, vegan sushi, coffee, bananas, dishwasher pods, puff pastry, kids meal for Xmas, impossible burger, orange juice, mandarins, pie shell as I did not feel like making pastry, white garbage bags, firm tofu, fresh garlic plus a jar of garlic, 6lb onions, 3 baking sodas, large bottle vinegar [my cleaning products 😊 ] Braggs seasoning, celery, parsley, 2 vegan butter, 20 apples, green onions, frozen corn and peas, [for dinner] kraft dressing for Caesar salad for the kids, tons of mushrooms, panko bread crumbs, icing sugar, 18 lbs of lemons, [for my green juice] 4 soy creamer, 3 nextmilk, romaine lettuce, dried white navy beans, 10 cucumbers and 5lb potatoes. Lastly I went down to The Silk Road as I mentioned for spices and bought tarragon-shallot, winter stewing blend, rustic roasting blend, mustard seeds, cumin, maple smoke salmon rub, Baltimore bay line seasoning, barbeque belt chicken and rib rub [for my sons stocking] black truffle salt, hickory smoked sea salt, black cumin, wasabi powder, oregano Mexican, turmeric, poultry stuffing blend, Greek seasoning, dill pollen and lastly, sweet paprika Spanish smoked. The spices alone came to $184.82 but are so worth it to cook with. The balance of the other groceries came to including my vegan meat came to $709.86. So now I have TONS of food I am hoping not to have to buy much more in the next two months maybe longer 😊   

 26th: Before I forget, dinner went superbly for the grandkids, two of their friends, my grandsons significant other and my son. Food was prepared for them, and I made the ‘beef’ wellington for myself. Liquor was drunk by almost all. My son does not drink, and the drivers drank sparingly, and one car was left in my driveway as I was insistent my granddaughter should not drive as I felt she had too much to drink. She thanked me by text later. 😊 I relaxed after they left around 9pm and watched Old Dads as my choice of movie. My son talked about it and there is no use trying to watch a movie with seven people as everyone talks 😊 I always watch TV alone as I like to hear the plot 😊

AND!! As I near my Personal Season Six as I write about below in the Spiritual Column my home is already screaming at me to fix things LOL!! The massage chair broke down. It just stopped working. The chair is under warranty BUT I had to pay for the pickup to have it taken to Calgary where the only place to fix it under warranty exists. These are things not told to you by the salesperson. Anyway, I am waiting to see what is wrong with it before I pay that bill and it appears it may be $1000 [one thousand] to have it brought down and back. NOW!! I am told that repairs take two to three weeks. So, it looks like I may not have it back before the end of January. It is less than two years old, and I cannot believe it stopped working. It is not like anyone sits in it for hours and hours. It might be used about 5-6 hours per week.

NEXT!! Day before Xmas my main blind stopped working [same room as the massage chair is in LOL] It is a remote-controlled Hunter Douglas that looks like the motor stopped working. Just like the smaller blind did one year ago this time.  And even though today [27th December] websites say they are open NONE are. So, I will have to wait till next week to get a repair person. My door handle on the lower patio door also stopped working and finally I got that changed. So, all is well there and as I always say, “the more material things you own the more you will have to fix them at some point”. BUT!! I will not install Hunter Douglas again. I am installing bedroom blinds in April and will choose another brand that offers remote control 😊 More on that when it happens.

I think that is it. My RELAXING ‘because I deserve it month of December’ is coming to an end. I will smudge my home at New Year and settle in for my winter sabbatical. BUT!! The home will be cleaned from head to toe, carpets cleaned by me, office arranged, and all papers no longer needed destroyed and so much more. Business will be tended to for the booking of the shows with payment. Believe me there are tons of things to get done and I am never bored. Meditation and China go without saying 😊 plus yoga as I pay monthly for it with a contract.  😊

SO!! 😊 it is the 28th today I am now going to wrap up the ‘Chat’ area since I now have bookings for tomorrow and moving into the New Year, I already have three days of January booked. Thank You Angels 😊 Oh yes, my two movies I watched last night were Princess Switch Part Two and then I said what the heck lets watch Part Three as well 😊

And now I wish you all a FANTASTIC New Year as we head into a LEAP year. Yup, 2024 is a leap year. Do sit down on January 1st and think about your intentions for 2024. Base them upon your own ‘season’ [see below] and know that the energy you project surrounds you.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE 😊

IN MY OPINION

 

THIS IS MY OPINION AND YOU CAN CHOOSE TO AGREE OR DISAGREE 

 

May the HEALTHY survive.

DISCLAIMER: VcToria holds no medical certificates in any form and is not handing out any medical advice.

 

I question why people think that creating ‘body positive’ is GREAT to be fat? Being fat undermines your health, creates strain on the organs, bones and all that was created to function correctly.

This is why we have a backed-up health system. Plus, the fact it is free here in Canada so anyone with a slight sniffle runs to a doctor.  Overweight, which most are as you watch some of the news that cover this so-called appalling system, creates the strains on the hips and knees. Creates high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes and so much more. The way people eat today is causing all kinds of diseases that could be prevented if the mind was stronger.

 

Yes, I say the mind needs to be stronger because most people overeat from either childhood rewards that were fed to them when either they were sick, did something good at school or even when going to the dentist. There they were rewarded with a lollipop!! The biggest thing that stuns me is the cookies that are handed out at the cancer centers where people go for chemotherapy!! Yup, oh sugar is so good for your treatment. [sarcasm here]

Back to the mind. Most people are emotional eaters. I actually see one regular vendor at shows who picks at chips the entire time she has no one at her booth. The mind sets the tone for eating. What you program your mind to believe it deserves, feels, wants, that sets the action in motion. Learn to control the mind that creates the emotions. Use hypnosis if need be but get your eating habits under control.

 

Since we begin a new year here why not take a GOOD HARD look at your body and then the inner health.

Are you overweight? Then you will feel pain on the joints and arthritis as you age. Most people I see are getting arthritis at a very young age now. So, devise a plan to FIRST strengthen your mind to take on the shift. Losing weight is easy. You need to burn more calories than you eat BUT!!! Today the food that most decide to grab is FAST FOOD. Why? Look at the calorie content of all of that garbage PLUS the nutritional value. There is nothing in fast food that creates the body to strengthen itself. In fact, sugar is a drug and all you do is crave more of it. So, first order of business is to make yourself a promise to avoid fast food places this year.

 

How? Carry snacks in your vehicle or purse or anywhere that snacks will fit. Dehydrate any fruits [strawberries and pineapple are the best] and carry them around. Any type of nuts are great. Now this is just to grab when you have that pang of hunger till you get home to cook in a healthy manner.

Carry fresh fruit and freshly cut up veggies if you are able to be going where either the vehicle is cold, or a fridge is available. If not, as I said carry dehydrated foods.   

 

Next using the mind again, you must program yourself to welcome the changes. Make a pact that a walk any time in the day or evening will take place. Learn to enjoy the changes that come with weight loss. Learn to enjoy the feelings that take place as aches and pains remove themselves and the health within starts to change.

 

Use the mind to set up a green juice morning drink. Learn what high fibre foods can do for your body.

 

I have always said many times to people if everyone ate like me the doctors would be out of business 😊 A couple of months ago a client said to me “I wish I ate as healthy as you do”.  And yet even though she would have the choice to do that she seemed to think she could not. And therein lies the problem with most people ‘they think with the word “CANNOT’ instead of “YES I CAN DO THIS”.

 

I watch people program their thoughts with ‘I am broke’ ‘I am fat’ ‘I cannot do it’ and therefore those are your beliefs, and you attract that energy towards yourself. Being fat is NOT a positive body image. You just choose to believe that because now everyone is being programmed to feel it is alright to look however you look!! It is not the look, it’s the bodily functions that go on UNDER the fat that is causing havoc on the health system. FAT equals BAD health and bad health equals your need to run to the doctors all the time.

 

How about programming yourself to feel GREAT? How about rearranging your thought process to attain this? How about giving your taste buds the time to change with your new feeding habits. How about clearing out of the cupboards of ALL fattening foods and NOT buying any processed foods when you shop. Carry those healthy snacks so you drive by the fast-food Unhealthy areas.

 

Look at the lineups at Tim Hortons and other places that sell coffee and donuts. Why not buy a bag of coffee beans and make your own coffee to carry in a flask if you drink coffee? That way you are not tempted to add that fattening and UNhealthy donut/muffins’ etc. to your order. Plus, you save so much money.

 

There is so much fat people can do to change their health. Just being able to breathe when you climb up stairs will be a FANTASTIC shift for you and your lungs.

 

You smoke? Let’s decrease this and end that habit. Take a look at the lungs of a smoker compared to one who does not smoke. Better yet take a look at the lungs of one who has quit after three months. ALL of the body will repair itself inside. Just like the skin does when you cut yourself. Inside the body the same happens. You can google these pics on line.

 

Give yourself that gift of health this year. Make the effort. Change the programming and cause of addictions to being fat. It is NOT Ok to be unhealthy. If we paid for healthcare, we would not be so overburdened I can assure you.

 

Start to feel proud of how you look and feel. Particularly how you feel.

 

As a 70-year-old vegan I can assure you I have no aches or pains at all in my body. These left when I shifted to vegan and plant based. Now I want to add here that when I shifted to vegan the fake meats and eggs etc. were not around. I have no problem with these at all. [Beyond meat etc. etc.] as they help the person who wishes to shift to vegan along the path. BUT!! Try not to stay with these. Try to transition and then move more towards being 80% plant based. The protein you look for can be found in dried beans. See Bulk Barn for all of the offerings in this area. The protein is higher in dried beans than any other food. BUT!! We are not a protein deficient country it is more about iron. Most people do not eat enough iron. That is what I find in deficiency. And guess what? ALL dried beans and most vegetables hold an immense amount of iron 😊

 

I can assure you if you lose weight your feet will not ache. Your knees will not ache. You will not need that hip replacement that overweight people now need as they have chosen to stay overweight and weaken the bones. Your breath will come easily with no puffing and panting. You will sleep that eight to ten hours without interruptions. Your mind will be calm as you feel GREAT and you have no need to focus upon pain.

 

I do find many hypochondriacs around nowadays. It is sad that you feel the need to revert to ‘needing’ sympathy and create your mind to allow yourself to believe in this neediness. I see so many social media posts that people sit and create about their health. Stop focusing on the sympathy you rush back to and read. Start changing your mind set and program in "I will be healthy and do not need attention".

 

Stop backing up our health system with the greed of food. Start to look at what the body ‘wants' not what you have addicted your taste buds to. Start to value life. Start to look at the creation of the body [that whoever designed it must be appalled at the lack of gratitude you show for it] and ask yourself why you treat your body so poorly.

If you treated your home the way you treat your body you would be living in a pigsty. Treat your body like the temple it is as your soul lives there for the duration of the material life. Judgment comes in many forms, and one will be how you valued the body and how well you treated it.

 

Anyway, if you still decide to program yourself to ‘I am body positive and in poor health’ then enjoy the aches and pains that travel your way. Good health is easy to come by. It is a matter of wanting it. Just like so many ‘want’ ‘want’ ‘want’ and go after the material ‘wants’.

Take your focus off the material desires and put the focus upon your health. Change your focus this year and within a year you will hold your head high and be proud of what you have accomplished.

 

It all starts with a mind set of ‘I CAN DO THIS’ not ‘I cannot’. 😊

CAT COSTS

china_edited_edited.jpg

Cat Costs: If you are new to my newsletter then know I have 3-5 years of tinned cat food here 😊 Story is in Octobers Newsletter.

Ok, so as I wrote above, I want to stay home in January and February and see how little money I spend LOL. So, I doubled up on her Solensia shots buying two for January and February directly at the vets. Cost: $189.32 [I will administer them] I also picked up her natural kidney power by Aventi [the 300 grams] Cost: $77.89. Next off to PetSmart for kitty litter and treats. I bought 3 boxes of kitty litter at $68.96 and then went overboard for treats LOL. I have at least 2-3 months of treats. I bought the tins of Churu and Inaba with 50 tubes in each tin plus the biscuit treats. Cost of all treats was $101.35. No dry food was needed.

The Total cost for December was $437.52. [I hope to have ZERO $ here next month 😊]  

That is for one cat I might remind people who are thinking of getting one. I am very lucky that as she ages, she is one of the rare cats that has stayed in GREAT health. 😊 I attribute this to good food, her daily exercise, and never having had any vaccines. Plus, the HUGE amount of love, I give her. 

 

If you are thinking of getting a pet please know that from the cute stage, they grow with a personality to the adult stage. Animals feel unconditional love from their souls. They get attached and used to their homes. If you cannot give up 12-18 years and maybe longer, do NOT get a pet. It is not a companion till you find a mate, have a child, or decide to move to an apartment that will not allow pets, it is a companion for life. They also need dental care, checkups, and GOOD food. Not this cheap, no-nutrient food that I see so many people buy. Your pets will suffer later just as you would if all you ate was junk.

 

Look at rescue places for loving animals. These pets will not only be grateful, it's almost like they know you saved them and love and adore you for it. Think before you add to your life. Can you give this type of commitment? If the answer is yes then enjoy looking for your new companion. Think older if you can, for some reason, older pets are harder to re-home and they are much sadder as they wait not knowing what it was they did to be removed from their homes.

orange sauce recipe
 VcToria's Vegan Kitchen

Although the pic on the left is NOT the soy curls as I forgot to take the pic it is of a dish with orange sauce. The orange sauce is the ingredient I will be advising you to put on this dish. Beyond delicious :)  

 

TIP: The easiest way to cook is to put all the ingredients out on the counter and then weigh and separate them before starting to cook. Read the recipe. If spices are all going to be added at the same time take a bowl and measure or weigh them out. If liquids need cups etc. take jugs and make sure they are created. Chop all the veggies. Line them up and follow the recipe 😊  

SOY CURLS or CRISPY TOFU IN ORANGE SAUCE

 

Either use soy curls or tofu with this recipe. Always read the recipe through before starting. 

Using tofu, you will need 14 oz. pack of firm cut-into bite-size pieces.

SOY CURLS: Take two cups of Butlers Soy Curls and soak in warm water that has been seasoned with poultry seasoning and any other seasonings you wish to add to the warm water OR you can soak them in any type of bouillon cubes with the water. OR you can purchase the vegan veggie/beef/or chick'en broth and use that. The trick to this dish is the taste :) and the way to make GREAT tasting dishes is in the spices. 

If you are using tofu add the poultry seasoning to corn starch and any other seasonings you care to use. Cover the tofu with your corn starch mix. 

Now make the sauce from the recipe below. Once that is done take a deep fry pan or pot and add 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil or any other type of oil you wish to fry with. Keep the heat at medium and add the tofu once hot. SOY CURLS: Drain the water and then add the soy curls to the oil. Fry either for about 5-7 minutes flipping till they are nicely done. Tofu should look crispy and soy curls browned

Add the sauce to your tofu or soy curls and stir. 

 

Serve with rice or you can serve with any type of veggies. Your choice. if you are using rice then cook that in a rice cooker or on the stove as you are preparing this DELICIOUS dish. The sauce will keep for a week in the fridge so you can do as I did with leftover sauce. See pic :) Using some seitan chick'en I had made with dried white bean I had cooked and veggies. Mixed in the sauce :) 

Ingredients for the sauce

1 tablespoon coconut oil or any type of oil if you do not have coconut

3 garlic cloves - crushed or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

¼ teaspoon ground ginger - or 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger

1 cup fresh orange juice or bottled if that is all you have but fresh is the best.

⅓ cup brown sugar - up to 1/2 cup if you love it very sweet

¼ cup soy sauce [I use Braggs] 

¼ cup rice vinegar

2 tablespoons cornstarch

2-3 tablespoons cold water

 

Heat a large skillet or medium saucepan over medium-high heat.

Over medium heat, melt coconut oil or oil of choice, then stir in garlic, ginger, and cook over low heat to prevent the garlic from burning. Cook until fragrant for about 1 minute.

Add orange juice, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and soy sauce. Bring to a light simmer, occasionally stirring, until the sugar dissolves – about 2-3 minutes.

Meanwhile, whisk water and cornstarch in a small mixing bowl. Add the cornstarch  into the hot orange sauce and keep simmering, occasionally stirring, until the sauce thickens – about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat. If it is too thick add more water. 

 

 

Next Month: Let us start a vegan kitchen and do a vegan meatloaf. Please make sure you have soy curls in stock. The best soy curls are by Butler. Keep them in the freezer. Order from Amazon by Elo's if you are in Canada 'Vital Wheat Gluten'. [do not buy Bob Mills if you live anywhere else it has a foul taste]

VcToria's Spiritual Advice

Every year I wrote about the ‘proper’ times to insert change and growth into one’s life. It is my favorite time to express to everyone how I find the material and spiritual life to be successful 😊

 

Look at nature. Look at all that is NON manmade. Other than the human [who is non man made] the rest choose their actions by energy changes. We call energy changes ‘seasons’. And as the rest of nature create their lives within the seasons for survival so we too have that opportunity to create change and growth and survival at the CORRECT time based upon the cycle from numerology that coincides with our birth data.

 

What is your season and how do you connect to it? Well first BELIEF is a powerful motivation for growth. There is a correct time for everything hence the expression that is often used by people who experience things by accident. “Right place, right time”. I am always amazed by people who cannot look further than their own needs and wants ALL the time. I am never surprised when they complain about things NOT working out and keep trying LOL.

 

This is simply easy for me to see. They are trying against the energy of their OWN life and the season that they sit in. Now I know many of you are anxious to see or read about your own seasons so here is the link and the math to determine the number is VERY easy to do. LINK> https://www.alternativeuniverse.ca/personal-years-in-numerology

 

BUT!!! Let me talk about my own year. 2023 was for me, MY Personal Year five [5]. The gambling year. Based upon the fact that I had paid strict attention to my first four personal years the five gives a break from inserting any more hard work or opportunities of growth. It is as I stated also referred to as the gambling year. As I tell my clients who are either in the five year OR entering into it IF [and I emphasize the word IF] you are supposed to win the lottery it will be in the five year. Well, the Universe did not see fit to have me win the lottery. In fact, I spent more that I won in the little spurts of $50 here and there. My biggest win was a little over $200. I even tried online gambling but cannot see why that would thrill anyone. I was registered, transferred some funds over and was BORED out of my mind playing blackjack online. No one to give a dirty look to when they held on 15 when the dealer had a 10 up LOL. No one to tell me how well I play LOL [I do play well, after all it is a game with numbers 😊] and literally within one week I transferred my money back and closed the account. The Western Lotto 6/49 was my choice but as I said no big wins sadly.

 

Now each January 1st I adhere to the Personal Year [season] and make my Personal Re’soul’utions based upon the energy [seasons] of the year. ALL of my re’soul’utions were kept in the five year 😊 I actually never break then as it is easy to adhere to what you ‘need’ ‘can’ and ‘should’ create at the proper times. After all they only come around every NINE years. And for 2024 I move into my six year) Home, hearth and family.

What were my 2023 re’soul’utions?

A} to save and not spend money on the house unless it broke. My reverse osmosis tank needed changing. So, I did that. One of my remote-control blind motors died out so I got that fixed. As I wrote about in July my g’daughter who had been promised my couch and TV and old massage chair had someone who could pick it up. So, I took on credit that will be paid in full this year making it a 2024 purchase LOL a new couch and smart TV [65”] Nothing else broke EXCEPT as we sit on December 14th my WONDERFUL massage chair stopped working. It is supposed to be picked up this weekend and brought to Calgary to be fixed. I will keep you updated on this.

The only other purchase was a Cuisinart food processor and a heater type lamp for the back patio.  I saved as much as I could 😊

B} Van stayed in good shape.

C}China is in perfect health.

D}Energy is GREAT although my weight did not drop to 135. It went to 140 and then back up to 150. All of those I asked for and I did my part by daily meditation, hard work at the shows, keeping my business flowing and taking care of my home. In the five year you do not put a lot of desires into your intentions. You are assured that all will work smoothly with what has been foundated from the previous 4 years 😊 And my year certainly did that. I flowed FANTASTICLY 😊

  

 

And my 2024 re’soul’utions will be as follows: My back patio will be decorated and furnished so that I can work out there, rest out there and enjoy the summer months. An outdoor heater will be installed by my electrician. I intend to buy an outdoor couch, a computer desk, a new laptop, crystals that will hang all around the space and some type of curtains that will be installed so that rain will stay off the floor. I will also install a new floor one like my tent has. I will be putting up bird houses all along my fence and hope to also add another bird feeder and bird bath. I am extending my garden to adding more food to grow. Basically, working on the house in any capacity that needs it 😊 But my outdoor patio is the biggest investment and focus. That is my first priority. Now the 6 year is also about balance, so I am looking at my shows and dropping a few that are no longer conducive to growth in my area. I am balancing anything else that needs to be balanced and getting ready for my SEVEN year [2025] that naturally I will cover next year at this time 😊

 

Trust me in this. By observing your very own season you too can build a FANTASTIC life. Let me explain something. Each season is a calendar year NOT a fiscal year. We have 9 [nine] seasons to go through before they change back to ‘start’. In nature there are 4 [four] season in the same amount of time as ONE of ours. 😊

Now follow me here. Number 9 [nine] is considered the number of completion. Why? Because anything you MULTIPLY by 9 [nine] and then is added back to a single digit is a 9. [nine] So 6 x 9= 63. 6 plus 3 =9 😊 3 x 9 = 27 and 2 plus 7 = 9. And so it goes. No matter how high the number is that you multiply, once the answer is added back to a single digit it will always be 9 [nine]. NOW!! If you ADD a number to 9 [nine] it will always come back to the number you ADDED. 9 + 5 =14. 1 and 4 = 5. [the number you added] 9 + 7 =16. 1 and 6 is 7. And so it goes. That is why the number 9 [nine] is referred to as the number of completion. You cannot go higher. Now bear with me some more 😊

Ages 1-9 you worship the parents. Ages 9-18 you learn that they are embarrassing and ask them to walk behind you LOL. But at 18 you are considered an adult and can create your own decisions. So let us look at the age of 81. 9 x 9 = 81 and 8 plus 1 =9 [nine] So we have roughly 9 [nine] seasons of 9 years to get it right. BUT!! The first two series of 9 years do NOT count. Thus, we are left with 7 [seven] series of the nine-year cycles. 😊 What is the 7? Seven wonders of the world. Seven Angels. Seven is the spiritual number as anyone will tell you. Seven days of the week. Etc. Etc. So, we have SEVEN lessons to learn here and 9 [nine] years to complete each one. Think about it. 😊 I leave you with my thoughts and what works for anyone who has the belief, the patience to enjoy the lessons and days in each season and the wisdom to figure out each lesson as they evolve. Learn the lesson by meditating and hearing the other side. Look for the messages and doors to open. Become vegan and ‘thou shalt not kill innocent creatures’ is top of the lessons 😊 And once you accomplish that first lesson the rewards are unbelievable.
