As I have said many times before, this wasnot only a wake-up call that life is short, but it caused me to re-evaluate and prioritizeeverything. I made a realization that those who do not lift us up tear us down, and Ineeded to purge the weight of negativity. No more heavy sighs. No more feeling like Iwas a burden. It was time to find my bliss.Needing a temperate climate for a healthy nervous system, I did some research todecide where I wanted to spend the rest of my days. Repeatedly pictures of HaystackRock in Cannon Beach, Oregon, appeared before me. I made that boulder my goal, and Iam now blessed with the magical trio: ocean, mountains, and medical marijuana.Having lost my mother to lung cancer a few years ago, the idea of ingesting pot ratherthan smoking it made more sense. Couple that with the fact that ingested marijuana goesinto your bloodstream rather than your nervous system, causing a slower but longer-lasting high, and I was ready to taste-test some magical goodies.The “med-ibles” that were readily available were not always very tasty and certainlynot something I would serve to company (wink). My first brownie purchase, in fact,tasted like dirt, and I was told that I should only eat a quarter of it at a time. I don’t knowabout you, but I don’t eat a quarter of anything. I wanted a big fudgy brownie with icecream and hot fudge. I wanted comfort food. I wanted comfort. That said, I rolled up mysleeves and got out my own trusty cooking utensils and pans.I have always loved to cook and even had a small catering business back in the day.This new endeavor gave me a fabulous opportunity to hone my skills. I wanted to makemagical goodies that would be desirable to not just me but also to the frou-frou masses,something beyond the typical brownies or Scooby Snacks. Magic Manicotti, anyone?Maybe some Puff Puff Pass Petit Fours? Oh, yeah!A tiny bit of science: for cooking purposes, THC is both fat-soluble and unable to bereleased without binding to either fatty acids or alcohol. That said, each of the followingrecipes will use some form of ingestible marijuana whether it’s in butter, oil, or alcohol.Don’t worry; I’ll walk you through it. Of course, you could always cheat and get it readymade at the dispensary…As of this writing, four states have legalized recreational marijuana, and the use ofmedical marijuana is legal is twenty-three states? It’s an exciting time, gang! Kentuckycould not pass prohibition, and Oregon has passed recreational marijuana. I made a gooddecision.Despite everything else I have been through and survived, I now feel like I have wonthe karmic lottery. I am able to do things that make me happy every single day. I can hearthe sea lions barking from the Columbia River which is just beyond my backyard. I cansee the mountains across the street, and I can be at the ocean shore in fifteen minutes. If Iwake up in the morning and my fingers wiggle, it is going to be a great day.I am lucky enough to be supported and loved by two amazing children who make me sovery proud, along with their significant others who have taught me that your best friendmakes the best mate. With that knowledge I can honestly say that I have the world’sgreatest husband. Seriously.This magical cookbook—along with all the others already in the series and those tocome in the future—is for them. I love you, Gabi, Brody, and Tim. Thank you.And, once again, thank you, too, Martha. I have come so far. And you were right.Thank G-d.A LA CARTEMaking the Magic Happen8-15Savory Balls16-36Sweet Balls37-56Savory Dips57-108Sweet Dips109-143Index144-150
