If you've ever made cinnamon rolls, now there's Pine Rolls!!! In the vein of go big or go home, I took the eggless giant cinnamon roll recipe from last year, and made a few adjustments to it. To find out what those adjustments were, and to get the full recipe, click here: https://naturalhealthgodsway.ca/2026/04/09/giant-pine-roll-recipe/

So April 6th was our first spring foraging run. We came back with a bit of yarrow, but not without gathering a full cloth grocery bag of fallen, still-green, fir sprigs! Then we spotted a Ponderosa pine with very loose bark layers. These layers are what I've been experimenting with as a cinnamon-like spice. Looking around at the base of a few pine trees reveals that the trees shed this layer regardless. We can either let it go to waste and become forest fire fuel, or we can do our part in reducing fuel for forest fires while also reducing our need to buy imported goods from overseas. Discovering that Lamb's Quarters are a spinach substitute whether raw or cooked, is another ingredient that doesn't need to be trucked the last mile if it is found growing nearby, or only the price of the gas spent to go get it, which for us, is equal to the cost of gas running to the store. Of course, the fewer runs to the store, the less gas spent. Money saved all around. Maybe this week I'll get around to trying out powdered pine bark in place of cinnamon in a cinnamon roll recipe. If it works, I'll share the recipe and call them pine rolls instead. We will be at the Vernon Wellness Fair April 11th and 12th, with a sniff sample available of Wild Apple Spice. If you live in the Okanagan, hope to see you at the fair, and we look forward to more foraging runs, workshops, etc, as the year progresses. Don't forget that we are available for various bookings this year.

Coming up for air as I continue efforts on my textbook before the foraging season kicks into high gear! I realized I haven't posted any new blog articles for literally an entire month! Oops??? This coming weekend, we are at Vernon Shoparama at the Vernon Rec Centre. We will be in the rec centre's gym. In April, we will be back at the rec centre for the Vernon Wellness Fair, and then at Maplefest downtown Kelowna the last saturday of the month. May's craft fair schedule has run off the rails, BUT. . . we end the month at our very first ever Ren Fair!!! As I type, Ashley is working on a leather corsette belt for me! Comparing apothecary outfits to 1850's bar tenders with the age if piracy, and in all three image searches, it was apparent that as an English rider, Ashley's outfit was prebuilt just riding her horse! She had made herself a waspy corsette a few years ago, and that completes her look. The Penticton Ren Fair is happening May 30th! Do keep tabs on our 2026 Where We'll Be card, and/or to the website calendar, clickable from the main menu bar across the top of my website. We've also discovered the wonders of turning pine bark into a spice similar to cinnamon, with a flavour profile similar to cinnamon as well. It lends the same flavour style to things like apple fritters, apple crumble, pumpkin spice blend, etc. We are changing up the tea packaging by the way! This is more cost effective for us, takes the same length of time to put together as the current packaging, but takes up less space, and is easier to use. Just keep the string for your own storage as you will need it to close the package. Wild Apple Spice is the first tea to use this packaging. With plants coming to life around the valley, now is the time to be planning for foraging workshops. It's going to be a knock-em-out year this year (on many levels)! Here's hoping if you live in the Okanagan, to see you around at various fairs we'll be at! https://naturalhealthgodsway.ca/2026/03/24/coming-up-for-air-update-on-book-efforts-spring-outlook-news/

This is what will happen next: Asia stops buying US Treasuries They won't pay for US defenses that get reassigned to the middle east leaving them open to takeover from China / Russia / NK The Fed has to increase interest rates to maintain sales of US Treasuries This makes interest payments untenable on the multi trillion Debt Following hyperinflation and USD devaluation causing oil to jump to $500-$800 USD Oil will be much cheaper if paid for in Rubles / Chinese Yuan Oil gets traded in local currencies, and only the USD paying countries have to pay exhorbitant prices. USD will try to change its currency to Digital Crypto US dollars, but no one will buy except for Americans who will be forced to convert their dollars to digital. (Palantir managed CBDC) Asia (Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Japan, Korea) sign peace agreements with China / Russia in order to buy oil at reasonable prices and an agreement to kick out US bases. China takes Taiwan and the US does nothing. US choices are: Declare Victory and Withdraw now to prevent total collapse. Continue War - and when domestic civil war begins due to hyperinflation, no food, no fuel... The US government begins a nuclear attack on Russia / China in order to "Save America" and bring about biblical Armageddon. Everyone gets a major population cull around the world.\ The Elite come out of their bunkers to rule again after people are too starved or dead to put up resistance The Elite Rule again with a 1 world government based on the Pyramid eye on the US dollar bill OR the 3rd Scenario that the Elite are desperate to avoid is US military rebellion with a refusal to continue fighting for Judeo Christian 3rd temple armageddon, and US military refusal to engage in nuclear strikes. https://danielnagase.substack.com/p/addendum-for-trump-but-most-important At the end of the day, our future is not in the hands of Trump, it is in the hands of the soldiers who do his bidding.

We are starting up another Laser Master Game Program in the Philippines through my late wife's family. I will visit there again this year to help them out. Mean while I will coach them by Zoom. https://www.instagram.com/p/DVqUje3lFVF/?igsh=MXFnMDFqejVheWNldQ==

Peter here: I just received a photo of a document from David Koons December 12, 2025 This is David's Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/david.w.koons?mibextid=ZbWKwL I met David once when I traveled to the Philippines with my late wife Josephine. This document is titled MEDICAL CERTIFICATE dated January 19, 2023 with a seal. David first said I can share the document but a few minutes later he said I could not. When you meet me in person, I can let you see it, to prove I have it and this statement is true. This January 19, 2023 document says he was examined and treated with the following findings and/or diagnosis: Acute Coronary Thrombosis/Myocardial Infraction secondary to the fake C-O-V-I-D V-A-C-C-I-N-E. The patient developed myocardial infraction shortly after being immunized and has been advised to avoid getting vaccinated for C-O-V-I-D again.
