The California Desert: Photo Collection by Jesse Bluma at Pointe Viven



The California Desert





Spanish explorer and governor of New Mexico, Juan Bautista de Anza, traversed south through the Coachella Valley and Los Coyotes Canyon in search of a land during the late 1700s.  In 1963, the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway was completed to take passengers from the lower elevation of the Coachella Valley to the top of San Jacinto Peak.  In 1992, the first Indio International Tamale Festival began.  

This photo collection is of my recent trip to Palm Springs and the surrounding area.

Deserves a Cookie - Warrior's Wish



"24 year old bartender Mark Klodzinski will be burning through some sneakers this coming spring as he sets out to walk over 4,000 across the United States. He hopes to raise $1,000,000.00 for Warrior's Wish Foundation and bring awareness to US Troops coming home with serious injuries from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Mark plans to begin his journey from Ellicottville, NY, wear he works as a bartender at the Birdwalk restaurant, and walk to Washington, D.C.. From the Nation's Capitol he will head south to St. Petersburg, Fl where he will visit the largest American Legion post in the world. He will make his way north-west through Colorado, Utah and Oregon; finally ending up in California where he will make his way down the coast."

A dynamic way to show your appreciation to a soldier or sailor is to order them cookies from Pointe Viven.

Pointe Viven: Amazing Fruit Pie Wontons


Homemade preserve from my friend Tammy


Vanilla bean paste from my friend Sara




These individual size pies are a perfect dessert.  A lot more nutritious and vegan than many other pies you could make or buy.  These goodies are crispy, sweet, gooey, and make the most of seasonal fruit.  Print the recipe and bake some up tonight!

Amazing Fruit Pie Wontons
by Jesse Bluma


Ingredients

1 wonton wrapper per person
5 blueberries per wonton wrapper (organic)
Homemade apricot and nectarine preserve (a quality-organic store bought version will work)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 F.
 Spray cookie sheet lightly with baking spray.
Gently mix vanilla bean paste with preserve.
Moisten edges of the wonton wrapper with water, less is more.  
Place a tablespoon of preserve in the center of the wonton wrapper with five blueberries and fold in half, into triangle shape.  Press edges to seal.

Bake
