Hi all,

Good day.

Many thanks... I have found many great recipes here. I tried a number of them and all turned out to be fantastic. I especially like this Walnut Paste Dessert recipe - had extra walnuts in the cabinet and this recipe gave me an additional way of preparing walnuts for consumption. I like the milky & thick texture. And with the walnuts blendered fine, it helps the body to digest it.
