Original Recipe Yield 20 servings

Ingredients

• 1 (18.25 ounce) package German chocolate cake mix
• 1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix
• 2 (3.5 ounce) packages instant vanilla pudding mix
• 1 (12 ounce) package vanilla sandwich cookies
• 3 drops green food coloring
• 1 (12 ounce) package tootsie rolls

Directions

1. Prepare cake mixes and bake according to package directions (any size pan).
2. Prepare pudding according to package directions and chill until ready to assemble.
3. Crumble sandwich cookies in small batches in a food processor, scraping often. Set aside all but 1/4 cup. To the 1/4 cup add a few drops of green food coloring and mix.
4. When cakes are cooled to room temperature, crumble them into a large bowl. Toss with 1/2 of the remaining cookie crumbs, and the chilled pudding. You probably won't need all of the pudding, you want the cake to be just moist, not soggy.
5. Line kitty litter box with the kitty litter liner. Put cake mixture into box.
6. Put half of the unwrapped tootsie rolls in a microwave safe dish and heat until softened. Shape the ends so that they are no longer blunt, and curve the tootsie rolls slightly. Bury tootsie rolls randomly in the cake and sprinkle with half of the remaining cookie crumbs. Sprinkle a small amount of the green colored cookie crumbs lightly over the top.
7. Heat 3 or 4 of the tootsie rolls in the microwave until almost melted. Scrape them on top of the cake and sprinkle lightly with some of the green cookie crumbs. Heat the remaining tootsie rolls until pliable and shape as before. Spread all but one randomly over top of cake mixture. Sprinkle with any remaining cookie crumbs. Hang the remaining tootsie roll over side of litter box and sprinkle with a few green cookie crumbs. Serve with the pooper scooper for a gross Halloween dessert.

Dear Friends,

I wanted to share that my Health Food Store which is off of Curry Ford has some great advise for a great Gall Bladder Cleanse. I purchased a gallon jug of unfiltered apple juice. The price is a bit hefty, but well worth it. It runs about $11 for a gallon. Start by measuring about 1/2 cup of apple juice and a TBSP of Flax Seed Oil & 1/2 of a fresh lemon. It tastes really good and keeps you regular at that. I do this every morning before I eat breakfast.

Gallbladder Cleanse

So why do a gallbladder cleanse? Most people have no idea of how the gallbladder functions or why it does what it does.

Its actually incredibly important to your digestive process. The gallbladder collects and concentrated the bile that your liver manufactures, then release it into your stomach when needed.

Problems happen when gallstones form in the gallbladder. Most gallstone sufferers tend to be overweight, over 40 and usually female. Gallstones are overwhelmingly the most common gallbladder problem.

Why do a Gallbladder Cleanse?

When you eat fatty foods, its this bile that emulsifies the fat in your stomach. A poorly functioning gallbladder handicaps your digestive system and can cause gas, abdominal cramping and headaches.

Even worse is the pain associated with the dreaded gallstones, solid accumulations of bile and cholesterol that need to be cleansed from your system. This is often manifested through a pain in the right hand side of your abdomen.

Patients should always consult their doctor if they feel this pain, but should be conscious of options other than surgery. A gallbladder removal procedure (cholecystectomy) is often recommended by doctors, but a cleanse can sometimes work better than undergoing an intrusive medical procedure.

Gallbladder Cleansing Techniques

So now you've identifies the symptoms of gallstones, and you've realized that you're in one of the at-risk categories. Now what kind of cleanse do you need? A gallbladder flush can help to eliminate the stones and relieve the pain and digestive problems that comes with them.

Cleansing yourself of gall stones dramatically aids digestion, which in turn improves general health. Here are the 3 stages in a successful gallbladder cleanse:

Stage 1: Prepare for the cleanse by drinking fresh apple juice for 3 days. Meals should be small amounts of raw salad or unprocessed fruit.
Stage 2: Buy the gallbladder cleanse ingredients:
Epsom Salts (4 tablespoons in water)
Olive Oil
Fresh Grapefruit juice and Lemon juice

Stage 3: Do the cleanse. Choose a Saturday if possible! Here is the routine you should follow -

(i) Eat a very light breakfast and lunch of fruit and vegetables.

(ii) At 6pm, drink 1 cup of the Epsom Salt water. Repeat at 8pm.

(iii) At 10pm, mix the fruit juices and one cup of olive oil. Drink it, go to bed and get a good sleep while the cleanse does its work!

(iv) At 7am, drink 1 cup of the Epsom Salt water. Repeat at 9am and finish the mixture.

(v) Eat only light fruits and vegetables for the rest of the day. Your gallbladder should be cleansed and by the evening you should feel great!

Foods to Eat

Unrefined Complex Carbohydrates
Important as they provide vitamins, trace minerals, fiber, and protein. These include brown rice, oatmeal, and wholemeal, barley, and rye products.

Fruits
Fruits contain important antioxidants and necessary dietary fiber. Apples, pears and oranges are particularly high in pectin which is a great intestinal tract cleanser. Watermelon is also great - it contains important vitamins and minerals such as lycopene, beta carotene, zinc, and selenium.

Vegetables
All veggies contain the vitamins and minerals necessary for a healthy body and liver. Legumes, cabbage, garlic and onions contain high amounts of sulfur - this is great for the liver by locking on to metallic toxins and excretes them.

Nuts and Seeds
Raw organic nuts provide good fats to the body as well as vitamin E, potassium, and folic acid. Flaxseed oil is extremely high in omega-3 essential fatty acids, which are powerful antioxidants and also have anti-inflammatory properties.

Foods to avoid

All meat, fish, and dairy products
Fried foods
Soft drinks
Alcohol
Coffee and tea
Sugar or sugar substitutes
Margarine
Vinegar
Pickles
White flour products
White rice

Drinks to help your liver

Fresh veggie and fruit juice, lemon water, dandelion tea, rice and almond milk.

Liver Supplements

Milk Thistle
This herb cleanses and protects the liver from toxic substances such as alcohol, drugs, heavy metals, pollution and pesticides.

Dandelion Root
This herb increases bile production in the liver, helping digestion.

Liver Detox Drink Recipe

This a delicious easy drink to make. Add all ingredients into the blender and voila!

A handful of spinach
1 apple
1 banana
1 lemon (squeezed)
Half a chili pepper (optional)
1 garlic clove or as much as desired (optional)
1 glass of water

It is beautiful outside today. Sky is so blue and air is fresh. Could do without the pollen, but that is Florida. So today I wanted to share my last nights dinner and recipes to go with it. I made a Baked Chicken with carrots. red potatoes, kielbasa sausage & a large onion. This is so quick and easy to do especially if you come home tired from your day.

Recipe:

1 Whole Chicken
2 Links of Kielbasa Sausage (cut into pieces)
Couple handfuls of Baby Carrots
1 Large Onion
As many small Red Potatoes as you like (cut in half)

Place all ingredients in a covered roaster. I use the Pampered Chef Roaster. It is amazing for this type of dinner. Make sure to season it with your favorite seasonings. I use a Chicken Seasoning that I found at Costco. I cook this at 450 F for 1 1/2 hrs in my roaster. I would lower the temperature to 375 F for a regular roaster and add about 1/2 hr to that.

I also made sweet potatoes in the oven and I topped my with a little butter and cinnamon with some apples on it.

This dinner would be fantastic with some biscuits. I will share my Sky High Biscuit Recipe with you latter. This is the best Biscuit Recipe I have found. They are easy to make and they will melt in your mouth.

Hope you will try out this recipe with your family...Happy Cooking!!!

Good Morning Friends,

Today I wanted to post some info about Apple Cider Vinegar/with mother. I am a huge fan of this wonderful product. I have been using it for 6 yrs. It has a horrible taste I must say, but it has healed a lot of aliments over these past yrs. One in particular is my stomach. I would suffer with stomach aches quite often. My mom suggested I try using Apple Cider Vinegar/with mother. Remember it has to be w/mother. Somehow the vinegar balances your Ph and settles your stomach. If you are suffering from UTI (Bladder) issues it is said to balance your Ph in your bladder and I believe it. I make a large cup full and drink it throughout the day. It is an energy drink when you are feeling sluggish. It is said to cleanse your filter organs such as you liver, kidneys, gall bladder, ect. It keeps your blood pressure at a good rate. Listen, I use this stuff for everything. You can purchase Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar w/mother at your local Health Food Store . I hope you will try it!!

Email: HOME ONLINE STORE ABOUT BRAGG PRODUCTS BOOKS HEALTH INFO TESTIMONIALS RESELLER INFO BRAGG BLOG CONTACT US STORE LOCATOR Excerpts from Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar Miracle Health System ACV Table of Contents How to Use The Powerful Health Qualities of Natural Apple Cider Vinegar Research worldwide supports and commends what Hippocrates (the father of medicine) found and treated his patients with in 400 B.C. He discovered that natural, undistilled Apple Cider Vinegar (or ACV)* is a powerful cleansing and healing elixir, "a naturally occurring antibiotic and antiseptic that fights germs and bacteria" for a healthier, stronger, longer life! The versatility of ACV as a powerful body cleansing agent is legendary. It’s been traced to Egyptian urns as far back as 3000 B.C. The Babylonians used it as a condiment and preservative, while Julius Caesar’s army used ACV tonic to stay healthy and fight off disease. The Greeks and Romans kept vinegar vessels for healing and flavoring. It was used in Biblical times as an antiseptic and a healing agent and is mentioned in the Bible. In Paris during the Middle Ages, it was sold from barrels by street vendors as a body deodorant, healing tonic and a health vinegar drink. Even Christopher Columbus and his crew on his voyage to discover America in 1492 had their vinegar barrels for prevention of scurvy as did the soldiers in the American Civil War. For centuries in Japan, the feared Samurai warriors drank it for strength and power. ACV has been used for thousands of years not only for health reasons, but also as a cleansing agent to remove bacteria, germs, odors, and even stains and spots. A teacher for the day can be a guiding light for a lifetime! Bragg books are silent health teachers—never tiring, ready night or day to help you help yourself to health! Our books are written with love and a deep desire to guide you to a healthy lifestyle. – Patricia Bragg ACV – Mother Nature's Perfect Food Natural (undistilled) organic, raw ACV can really be called one of Mother Nature's most perfect foods. It is made from fresh, crushed apples which are then allowed to mature naturally in wooden barrels, as wood seems to "boost" the natural fermentation. Natural ACV should be rich, brownish color and if held to the light you might see a tiny formation of "cobweb-like" substances that we call the "mother." Usually some "mother" will show in the bottom of the ACV bottle the more it ages. It never needs refrigeration. You can also save some "mother" and transfer it to work in other natural vinegars. When you smell natural ACV, there's a pungent odor and sometimes it's so ripened it puckers your mouth and smarts your eyes. These are natural, good signs. Why Has Natural Apple Cider Vinegar Disappeared from Grocers' Shelves? The blame for the disappearance of natural raw Apple Cider Vinegar from supermarkets lies on the shoulders of the general public, as well as the producers of vinegar. Most people buy food with their eyes, not thinking of good nutrition. The vinegar producers failed to enlighten the public on what powerful health qualities were locked within natural ACV. Why? Because most of them had not the slightest knowledge of the health values of natural, organic, unfiltered, cloudy (and to some, less attractive-looking) Apple Cider Vinegar with the "mother." They produced pasteurized, refined and distilled vinegars because the public demanded the clear look. It was simply filling current supply and demand. Powerful Health Qualities Removed You cannot completely blame the producers of vinegar. They are not nutritionists, nor are they biochemists. Their business is to give the customers what they want. Most people purchase vinegar for flavoring, also for pickling and marinating their foods. Some women use it to rinse their hair after shampooing, as it leaves it squeaky clean, softer and much easier to manage. ACV is also a germ fighter in the home, lab, etc.. Some mix it with water to wash windows, as it removes sludge and keeps them sparkling clean. ACV has hundreds of uses and its versatility is legendary as a powerful household cleansing and deodorizing agent free of dangerous chemicals. (See pages 102 to 104 for vinegar cleaning hints.) ACV Has Powerful Health Qualities Both the general public and the producers of vinegar have been informed as to the powerful health qualities of organic, raw, unfiltered, fully ripened ACV. Ignorance isn't always bliss! When most people see natural apple cider vinegar with the brownish color and the tiny, cobweb "mother" floating in it, they think it looks unappetizing. The general public has been educated and brainwashed to want everything they purchase to have perfect eye appeal! To meet this demand of clear, light-colored vinegar sans the brownish, cobweb "mother" is the reason producers distill their vinegar. In distilling, the vinegar is turned to steam by heating, thus destroying the powerful enzymes and evaporating the life-giving minerals such as potassium, phosphorus, natural organic fluorine, silicon, trace minerals and pectin as well as many other powerful nutrients! Distilling also destroys the natural malic and tartaric acids which are important in fighting body toxins and inhibiting unfriendly bacteria. You can see how the public, with their obsession for eye appeal foods, reacts. The producers of Apple Cider Vinegar, who agree to sell their product for a profit, put a death warrant against healthy, organic, raw, fully ripened ACV. The public got what they wanted—a clear, appealing, but dead ACV. When natural ACV was hard to find, other strange vinegars began to appear on grocery shelves. The first was malt vinegar, a refined vinegar. It's clear and acceptable to the public. It tastes like vinegar, but has none of the healing qualities of natural, raw ACV. The universally accepted #1 fruit, the apple, is popular across America and around the world. Early American settlers, the Pilgrims, brought apples to America in the early 1600's and became Johnny Appleseeders, starting apple orchards that eventually spread throughout America. Commercial Vinegars are Real Tragedies Then came the real tragedy: a food chemist produced an imitation vinegar from coal tar! It looked clean, white and tasted like vinegar. Today it's the most popular vinegar in supermarkets. It's cheaper than distilled vinegar or malt vinegar. Most people buy these worthless vinegars. There is nothing redeeming about commercial vinegars, besides their clean look and vinegar-like taste. They have no health value! They don't contain the health values of organic, raw ACV with the mother. Millions worldwide never get the health benefits of this natural ACV as Hippocrates used in 400 B.C. ACV Helps Stiffness Vanish from Body You will find, after several months of ACV and honey cocktail taken 3 times daily that the stiffness and misery will be gone from your joints and body. You will discover you can walk or run up several flights of stairs without any effort and pain! You will notice that you look and feel younger! Make The Bragg Healthy Lifestyle a life-long daily habit! Over the years we have seen many stiff-jointed, prematurely old people transform themselves into new, youthful, healthy people! We can't do it for you. You must make the effort to give this ACV and honey program a chance to prove what it can do for you! Question About Apple Cider Vinegar Many people have some preconceived idea that Apple Cider Vinegar is harmful to the body. However, it is actually the distilled, pasteurized, filtered, malt and synthetic dead vinegars that must be avoided for human consumption! Let us assure you that there is nothing in this wonderful, organic, raw ACV that can in any way harm your body! People ask us about the merits and benefits of ACV. See the inside front cover for a list of some of the miracles it can perform. Animal proteins and fats have a tendency to thicken the blood, while natural acids and enzymes in ACV help to keep the blood healthier and thinner. Also, that's why people naturally crave and serve cranberry sauce (which contains four different natural acids) with turkey and fowl. They serve applesauce with roast pork dishes, a slice of lemon with fish, or mushrooms with steak —all rich in natural acids. The use of Bragg Organic Apple Cider Vinegar is a wonderful health aid, and the #1 food I recommend in helping to maintain the body's vital acid-alkine balance. Everyone should read the Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar book. – Gabriel Cousens, M.D., Author of Conscious Eating and Spiritual Nutrition
