The Breast of Mother Nature

OK, so this recipe is for very strong cannabis milk, good to be mixed into tea, coffee, or used in recipes. If you would like to make a more tame batch.. use less cannabis.

Cannabis Milk
(2-3 Servings)

Ingredients
1 cup Whole Milk or Cream (Chocolate milk is good as well)
1/8 oz finely ground cannabis

Tools
1 small pot
1 airtight storage container

Method
Add the milk and cannabis to a pot over medium heat.
Allow the mixture to come to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer for about an hour.
Allow the mixture to cool and then pour into an airtight container through cheesecloth, squeezing the remainder from the cannabis then place the milk in the fridge to cool. 

If you are using it in a recipe feel free to leave the cannabis in the milk, it will mix in well and will hardly be noticeable. I even leave it in my tea :)

Use before the sell by date on the milk.

Kief Canna-Butter - A Gooey Treat


Cannabutter made with Kief is actually one of my favorites!

Recipe (For bigger batches just multiply everything by the same number)

1 Gram Kief
2 Tablespoons butter
2 Tablespoons water
In a small saucepan, melt the butter, add water, sprinkle in kief. keep at very low simmer, barely bubbling... then after 20 minutes (longer for bigger batches), pour it into a bowl or glass and put in the fridge until it hardens. The butter will harden and sit on the top and any residual water.

The THC-A is now THC and can get you blindingly high! A teaspoon of butter per dose is my suggestion for cooking with per person, but be careful!

Cannabis entire history (CLIFF NOTES)


Cannabis has a rich and full history which until only recently has been unencumbered by prohibition. Being the only plant to provide both fiber and medicine, cannabis has been in use for thousands of years. The Chinese were the first to document its medicinal properties in the year 2737 B.C., well after it had been established as fiber for making ropes and clothing. It has been proposed that cannabis was among, if not the first, plant grown by humankind as early as 8000 B.C., when the world transitioned from the final stages of the last ice age into an initial era of planned agriculture.

During the 16th Century B.C., ancient Greeks pioneered cannabis vaporization techniques. They discovered that by placing dried plants onto hot stones in enclosed steam rooms, the intoxicating and medicinal vapors could be released and inhaled. These techniques were similar to rituals found in cultures where people would meet around a fire, toss cannabis into the roaring flames, and sing and dance.  

Although it is unknown exactly when cannabis arrived in Europe, unearthed artifacts have found the plant being in use as early as 500 B.C. and it’s popularity in the region growing steadily from the 13th Century A.D. and onward. However its use in South Africa for medicinal and nutritional purposes far outdates European settlements. Pregnant women used to smoke cannabis before birth and it was also cooked into breads for nutritional fortification.

Cannabis is ranked fourth among most popular mind altering substances, trailing just behind caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol. The United Nations estimates that there are between 200 and 250 million cannabis users worldwide. The prohibition of cannabis within the United States has existed only within the past century, with the anti-cannabis campaigns being heavily funded by certain companies within the United States

DEA CannaNews --- Synthetic THC Rescheduled


The DEA has proposed the rescheduling of dronabinol which is synthetic tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). This change may at first seem like a good thing, however upon closer inspection you will clearly see how corrupt it truely is.

The plan would be to move synthetic THC pills (dronabinol) to schedule 3 claiming it as a controlled substance that has clear medicinal properties. The problem with this is that synthetic means created in a laboratory, non organic. This places the power and control in the hands of pharmaceutical companies. I don't know anybody with a laboratory to link atoms together... Almost everyone I know has a place to grow a cannabis plant though. The change is based entirely on greed and surely it is being pushed through by pharmaceutical lobbyists.

The fundamental issues with this plan are as follows;
  1. The pills are pure THC which is a psychotic - CBD is an antipsychotic and is contained within the cannabis plant. The combination of the two create a balance. The pill however will be a pure psychotic. 
  2. The cannabis plant contains 85 cannabinoids each having the ability to interact with the human body and bring about medicinal benefit. Why would we limit ourselves to only one cannabinoid (THC)? The other cannabinoids don't get you high, only THC, but they are all beneficial!
  3. Allowing the Pharma companies to sell us a single molecular structure found freely in a plant while making the plant itself felonious is pure SOCIAL MANIPULATION.
“Marinol is not the same thing as marijuana; nor is any generic version of Marinol that might be approved by the FDA in the future. Marijuana (the cannabis plant) contains approximately 500 different chemicals; and dronabinol (the form of THC found in Marinol) is just one of those numerous chemicals in the plant.” (Mike Riggs, The Daily Caller)

Kenichi Nalita - Political Asylum for MMJ


 I have connected with a Japanese man Named Kenichi Narita. He is a Crohn's patient who is on a medicinal regimen of 3 grams cannabis daily to replace the nearly 1/2 Pound of pills conventionally taken by Crohn's patients daily. He is very inspiring and intelligent. I have contacted a local marijuana related magazine and have been given the OK to write a 1500 word article relating to him. The immense difficulty in his case originates from his lack of citizenship here in the US and upcoming deportation for this very reason. Japan whose natural laws included cannabis as well as being a revered plant within Shintoism the Japanese religion, compounded by being a longstanding medicine there were impeded after WW2 when the US rewrote the Japanese constitution outlawing Cannabis among other things. Now Kenichi is in the process of applying and fighting for political asylum based on medicinal necessity to the very country that made it illegal in his country. A confounding mystery of politics.

I am working diligently to spread his word, message, and success story within the US. He has gone off of all medications other than Cannabis and is by far the healthiest Crohn's patient I have encountered. There are currently 500,000 Crohn's patients within our boarders alone. His biggest wish right now is for a vehicle to be able to travel and spread the message and make the connections necessary to be effectively heard. His lawyer was an immigration judge and his doctor is one of the best in the country. The quote below was taken from a letter between his doctor an the high courts of Japan.

Please Spread the news and watch for updates. I update my blog frequently

 The choice is simple see the images above to see the difference between dosing methods. For perspective see the small pack of cigarettes on the table above.

3 Meter Volcano Bag - Amazing Experience

My close and inspiring friend Kenichi Nalita a forefront member of the Medical Marijuana Liberation Front came to San Diego for a visit with hopes of connecting with like minded individuals.

When he arrived at the house he asked, "Do you like to vaporize?" I assured him I did.

"I have a treat for you then," he told me and pulled out a 3 meter (10 Foot Balloon) given to him by the Volcano company higher ups at Storz and Bickel. He connected it and went through 2 fills of cannabis. I watched as the bag slowly unraveled. A short 5 minutes later once it was filled I was aghast... Truely the most fantastic vaporization experience I have had.


Find out more about Kenichi Nalita and his fight for political asylum for Medical Marijuana purposes, the first of its kind.
