I went to Macrobiotics cooking class today. It was really interesting. Do you know what Macrobiotics is? Macrobiotics, from the Greek"macro" (large, long) + "bios" (life), is a lifestyle that incorporates a dietary regimen. Macrobiotic methodology was brought to Europe from Japan by Japanese philosopher George Ohsawa (1893–1966). [by Wikipedia] Wow, I didn't know. But its really popular in Japan. Cook without eggs, sugar and milk. Also cook using organic products. 
Macrobiotic diets follow the idea of yin and yang. Followers of macrobiotics believe that food, and food quality, affects our lives more than is commonly thought. (But this is true...) Learning about Macrobiotics and what food and products prisent, makes me want to learn more about what we eat. I do not need to be so sincitive, but It give me an idea of use more traditional methods of cooking for family, friends, and oneself.
Today, I made sweets. Cocoa cake, puding and coco cookies. WITHOUT using milk, sugar and eggs. Wow, it's sure taste natural. We used natural organic ingredients and taste alot simple and plain, but felt really worm and calm.. (do you know what I mean??)
