Ingredients:

40 grams (1/3 cup) cacao nibs (optional)

50 grams (1 cup) unsweetened coconut chips

60 grams (1/3 cup) extra virgin coconut oil

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

100 grams (1/3 cup) honey

1 teaspoon ground cake spices (I use the French quatre-épices mix that includes cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and black pepper)

500 grams (1 pound 2 ounces) mixed nuts and seeds (here I used skin-on almonds and cashews; you can also use hazelnuts, walnuts, pecans, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds...)

1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

50 grams (1/2 cup) unsweetened grated coconut

Equipment:

baking paper

baking sheet

oven

food processor

blender

bowl

mixing bowl

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.Put the nuts in the bowl of a food processor or blender, and process in short pulses until roughly chopped, stirring every few pulses for even chopping. The goal is to have a mix of bigger bits and smaller bits.Pour into a large mixing bowl, add the rest of the ingredients, and stir vigorously until well combined. Pay particular attention to the honey and coconut oil: they will tend to remain as individual wads, and you'll need to coax them into mingling with the other ingredients.Pour out onto the prepared baking sheet and spread out evenly.Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring thoroughly every 10 minutes, until golden brown.Let the granola cool completely on the sheet -- it will crisp up as it cools -- then transfer to an airtight container. It will keep for 3 weeks at cool room temperature, or a couple of months in the refrigerator.

Food Joke

This is an excerpt from Dave Barry's book A Guide to Guys. On the differences between men and women... Let's say a guy named Roger is attracted to a woman named Elaine. He asks her out to a movie; she accepts; they have a pretty good time. A few nights later he asks her out to dinner, and again they enjoy themselves. They continue to see each other regularly, and after a while neither one of them is seeing anybody else. And then, one evening when they're driving home, a thought occurs to Elaine, and, without really thinking, she says it aloud: "Do you realize that, as of tonight, we've been seeing each other for exactly six months?" And then there is silence in the car. To Elaine, it seems like a very loud silence. She thinks to herself: Geez, I wonder if it bothers him that I said that. Maybe he's been feeling confined by our relationship; maybe he thinks I'm trying to push him into some kind of obligation that he doesn't want, or isn't sure of. And Roger is thinking: Gosh. Six months. And Elaine is thinking: But, hey, I'm not so sure I want this kind of relationship, either. Sometimes I wish I had a little more space, so I'd have time to think about whether I really want us to keep going the way we are, moving steadily toward ... I mean, where are we going? Are we just going to keep seeing each other at this level of intimacy? Are we heading toward marriage? Toward children? Toward a lifetime together? Am I ready for that level of commitment? Do I really even know this person? And Roger is thinking: ... so that means it was... let's see... February when we started going out, which was right after I had the car at the dealer's, which means ... lemme check the odometer ... Whoa! I am way overdue for an oil change here. And Elaine is thinking: He's upset. I can see it on his face. Maybe I'm reading this completely wrong. Maybe he wants more from our relationship, more intimacy, more commitment; maybe he has sensed -- even before I sensed it -- that I was feeling some reservations. Yes, I bet that's it. That's why he's so reluctant to say anything about his own feelings. He's afraid of being rejected. And Roger is thinking: And I'm gonna have them look at the transmission again. I don't care what those morons say, it's still not shifting right. And they better not try to blame it on the cold weather this time. What cold weather? It's 87 degrees out, and this thing is shifting like a darn garbage truck, and I paid those incompetent thieves $600. And Elaine is thinking: He's angry. And I don't blame him. I'd be angry, too. I feel so guilty, putting him through this, but I can't help the way I feel. I'm just not sure. And Roger is thinking: They'll probably say it's only a 90-day warranty. That's exactly what they're gonna say, the scumballs. And Elaine is thinking: Maybe I'm just too idealistic, waiting for a knight to come riding up on his white horse, when I'm sitting right next to a perfectly good person, a person I enjoy being with, a person I truly do care about, a person who seems to truly care about me. A person who is in pain because of my self-centered, schoolgirl romantic fantasy. And Roger is thinking: Warranty? They want a warranty? I'll give them a darn warranty. I'll take their warranty and stick it right up their ... "Roger," Elaine says aloud. "What?" says Roger, startled. "Please don't torture yourself like this," she says, her eyes beginning to brim with tears. "Maybe I should never have ... Oh my, I feel so ..." "What?" says Roger. "I'm such a fool," Elaine sobs. "I mean, I know there's no knight. I really know that. It's silly. There's no knight, and there's no horse." "There's no horse?" says Roger. "You think I'm a fool, don't you?" Elaine says. "No!" says Roger, glad to finally know the correct answer. "It's just that ... It's that I ... I need some time," Elaine says. (There is a 15-second pause while Roger, thinking as fast as he can, tries to come up with a safe response. Finally.
