Monoi de Tahiti
Monoi coconut oil has been used for centuries. From the time when the tiare blossoms are hand picked & the coconut split open, monoi oil is lovingly made to add a touch of Tahiti to the world.
Traditionally, monoi coconut oil has always held a special place in the heart of the Polynesian people. This simple yet remarkable natural ingredient is included in many different past and present areas of the islanders' practices such as in intricate religious ceremonies, in holistic medicine practices and in more humble daily usage including the beauty care of both body and hair.
Monoi de Tahiti a Daily Beauty Ritual:
A few drops in a hot steamy bath will help you relax and keep your skin soft and subtly fragrant.
After a shower or a bath Monoi de Tahiti softens and helps re-hydrate the skin to its natural, healthy look.
As a pre-shampoo hot oil treatment it helps repair and deep-condition the hair to a healthy shine.
After a swim it helps protect the skin against the combined negative effects of the sun, the wind and salted sea water.
We offer Manoi Body Glaze and Manoi Body Butter at All Natural Jeanie. To order go to http://www.allnaturaljeanie.com/

Portuguese Sweet Bread
Portuguese Sweet Bread
adapted from Bernard Clayton’s Complete Book of Breads
5 1/2 - 6 cups flour
2 packages yeast
1/2 cup sugar
2 t salt
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk, diluted with 1/2 cup warm water
1 t vanilla
1 t lemon juice
3 eggs, at room temperature, plus 1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup raisins
1 stick butter, at room temperature
2 T sugar
Combine three cups flour, yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Make a well and add diluted milk, vanilla, and lemon. Add eggs and gently stir until combined. Add raisins. Beat in butter. Add flour, 1/4 cup at a time, until it can be gathered into a rough ball. Knead until it is smooth and elastic, about ten minutes. Place in bowl with greased fingers, cover, and let rise until doubled in size, about two hours.
Punch down dough, divide in half, and allow to rest for ten minutes. Form each half into a ball and let rise for one hour. Brush the dough with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 350 degrees until they are golden and a skewer comes out clean and dry, about one hour.
Enjoy!
