Try sunflower seed butter! Or another nut butter, like almond. :D
my cousin and i make this with malted milk powder, but any powdered milk - Nido or otherwise - works well. never thought to put it in squeeze tubes! We usually make balls and roll in cocoa powder or...

We've been going to the Mohonk Preserve/Mohonk Mountain House up in New Paltz, NY (two separate landowners with adjacent lands). The Mountain House grooms and tracks the trails, some of which are on...

acupuncture was the ONLY thing that helped with the back pain that I was having a few years ago (from osteoarthritis, not sciatica). For some reason, my SI joint keeps going out and giving me sciatic...
Way to organize a winter shakedown on an unseasonably warm day AGAIN, ShLep. :p Have fun out there!
Well, if you guys are going up the Red Dot, I'm glad I'm not going...that scramble and I are NOT friends! (Although maybe if I hiked it *without* whiplash, it'd be a better time...)
