Almond milk is tits
Almond milk: 20 plain, raw almonds with skin, blended in a super-duper blender with 250 - 500 ml of water. Add one really really good date for sweetener, if you want.
Thanks to my Oma for showing me this little trick when I was a wee one!
I used to call this a nut shake when I was impressing new girlfriends. If the new girlfriend liked it, then I liked her! Ha ha.
Seriously, blend this up, it sounds gross but if you blend it very well, you get a delicious frothy milk. You can apply this milk to your musli! I'm thinking of using it to make poppy seed cake, too. Adding the date for sweetener is the best, because good quality dates are so sweet and sticky - a great addition to this simple drink!
If you think I'm nuts, is it perhaps possible that you have not tried a nut shake? If you've been reading my other journal entries, you might consider that I have tried adding melted, pure chocolate to this mix... and yes, you might even consider that it is friggin' good.

Mmmmm, those recipes sound good. Thanks for the email. Okay, it's cheesy, but I finally got a title. I think it's going to be one of those constantly changing titles. All part of my charm.
