"Prickly pear cactus, also called nopal, is promoted for treating diabetes, high cholesterol, obesity and hangovers. It is also touted for its antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties. Some preliminary evidence shows that prickly pear cactus can decrease blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes."

Juan is not upset that dinner will soon be served! It was delicious and plentiful, too. We enjoyed salad, pasta, pineapple upside down cake, watermelon juice (all freshly made), and incredible conversation.

Monkey Bay's Co-Directors, Matthew and Marga Miller, are what I consider a "Power Couple." Together, they unleash so much good into the world, while maintaining a love and regard for each other that inspires. As Marga showed us around, she giggled about the fact that Matthew actually enjoys stirring the compost. THAT is a deep appreciation for the full life-cycle!

There are hand-painted signs with uplifting messages all over the place. Michael pointed this one out to me. It was my favorite sign of all.
