About Shiva Singh:

Born in Guyana, South America. Raised in the ways of Sanatan Dharma. As a small boy his father took him into the secret spaces of the Amazon where he experienced the mystical beauty of Grandfather & Grandmother. There he sat with indigenous elders of the Arawak people, learning to chant in their tongue. He moved to NY with his siblings as a young adult becoming a husband & father, friend and devotee of Mother (Kali). He has sat with many indigenous and Native American people throughout his years, such as: Shoshone, Apache, Lakota, Hindu, Chassidim, Santo Daime, Huni Kuni, Peruvian, Mexican and more...

He works with the sacred fireplace of the Dine people of Crown Point, New Mexico. Shiva Singh lives and breaths to pray so that we all can hold our space in joy, peace & love.

I know! Thats a good deal! Unfortunately for me it'd be a little bit too expensive with a flight and all. Maybe I should just head over to Crown Point and find that fireplace!
That would be cheaper for sure.

Note that is not OLChemist's Kitchen. I'll take your $25. But you'll only get some iced tea, and if you're really good, some pie.

First have to drill a couple of air holes, then drop you off at Flagstaff and it's 242 mile due east from there. On your way, you can stand on a corner in Winslow, AZ, and finally arrive at your destination after hitch-hiking for another 3 or more hours.

You're right thats a lot of work. You might just have to go to the workshop without me. Take good notes tho!

Not on a bet. That is one of those dishes that come from my Dad's Amish grandparents that I left far behind me when I moved out of my parent's house. Along with sauerkraut with apples, carrots, V-8 juice and caraway; rye toast with cottage cheese and apple butter; and tomato and peanut butter on rye sandwiches.

I do excellent blueberry, pumpkin, apple, key lime, and cranberry/apple pies. But, no treacle tarts, no chest pies, no rhubarb anything.... I also make a mean blackberry cobbler with orange zest in the crust.

Good form @OLChemist!

How about sweet potato pie?

I do like blueberry, key lime, and cranberry/apple pies.

The rhubarb that I got from Rock Springs Cafe Welcome - Rock Springs Cafe wasn't too bad at all, but what do I know.

BTW, it's HOGS N HEAT Hogs N Heat - Rock Springs Cafe at Rock Springs this weekend.

Mine tastes a lot like my pumpkin. Nutmeg instead of ginger and cloves... Half brown sugar instead of all white... A shot of very good Mexican vanilla... And you have pie.

I've been working on my apricot pastelito recipe. Almost there. Still a little too much crust to filing. I'm going to try more apricots, less golden raisins and a couple drops of almond extract. You need a super intense filing to stand up to all that crust.

[OLChemist]

Now I want to make pie! This is a problem.

I live alone. So, I can only make pies on week days, when I can take them to work to feed second shift. Otherwise, I eat too much of said pie.

All of this sounds so yummers.

The "RSVP" button actually allow you to purchase tickets!

This "clown pint" is really bent on tailoring our way of life to a commercial audience by altering our ways of using instruments, songs, prayers and dances to cater to a wider audience, all in the hopes of generating greater revenue.

I bet he thinks he is doing this without anyone knowing that he is doing this, let along anyone that "sold" him this information.
