Turkish Coffee Cup Readings.....

Tasseography 
Turkish Coffee Cup Readings by Yesim Gumus

Both tea leaves and coffee cup readings are known as Tasseography, or Tasseomancy. Coffee Readings are psychic readings done by using a cup of coffee as though it's a crystal ball. Ground Turkish coffee is mostly used when cup readings are done. The residue is left at the bottom of the cup after the coffee is drunk, when the cup is then covered with a saucer, shaken, and turned over (up side down) into the saucer, and left to cool and dry. The patterns formed on the inside of the cup trigger psychic insight; and are interpreted according to what they mean to the seer. As with any method of divination, it’s fifty percent knowledge, and fifty percent intuition. The cup shows a story to the seer based on how you thoughts have created your life at the present moment. It is Spiritual Guidance you seek. You have a chance to check in and renovate! Its all up to you and your choices. You are the master of your own destiny. Own it. Believe it! We all know this now don't we. Use it.

The readings could take up to an hour or less. Please be on time. Your divine investment is a suggested donation of $40 or trade. Sometimes I gift readings too. Whatever you can honestly, fairly and reasonably afford to help support me and to help keep the circle strong is appreciated....Please feel free to contact me for further explanation. Long distance online readings are done by email or Skype- through PayPal! I drink the coffee with your Divine permission holding the space and intention for you....  https://personal.paypal.com/ca/cgi-bin/marketingweb?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=marketing_ca/request_money&nav=1.3.2

Natural Foods Cook

 Right: Raw Pizza at The New Life Retreat

~Yesim Gumus~

Affordable Cooking, just for you, since 2001 

How would you like to come home to a clean kitchen and delicious, fabulous, healthy food that you know you love, ready to eat or prepped or freezable for the week? No more expensive questionable take-out and stressed out and late 8pm dinners. Your kids come home to find me happily cooking there with amazing things they like to eat, all ready to go. I am a Personal Cook for families, the cook for retreat groups by contract, the "co host labour" for small parties and special occasions,  preparing  of custom foods to be picked up by special order for individuals, groups, charities, small venues, personal advertising purposes, and just to GIVE.

I am now available for cooking clients in Ottawa West Centerpointe Area, specifically Paseo Private or other areas nearby, days of the work week. We can meet and go from there with details and negotiate something that works for all of us.

Typically I to come to your home once a week for 4 hours of your choice and dish it up for you anyway YOU like it, using your exact instructions, your kitchen and your supplies. I provide the labor. I am a super efficient extension of you. You buy the groceries, you bookmark your favorite recipes, leave me a list of allergies and dislikes and I give you hours of awesome cooking and clean up. I also leave you a list of needed groceries or recommendations for ingredients and the best places to buy them, lending you years of independent health food research.

In addition to the meals - I can bake up a storm (gluten free anyone?) and also cut up ready-to-eat fresh veggies (you know the ones that go bad in the bottom drawers...), wash and spin salad with a homemade dressing, and use up perishables for soups or stock, so nothing goes to waste.  Specializing in healthy concepts, integral meats, vegetarian, vegan, special diets or raw/living meals with many influences from around the world. I will cook any type of food to suit your needs and budget. My focus is on local, organic, regional,  seasonal foods with environmental awareness where possible. I honor all food that comes my way. I can help you make a slow or fast transition to healthy food choices if you so desire! Or just catch a glimpse at healthy eating. Anything is possible.........I can also guide you towards healthy food changes by taking a stroll with you through your fridge and cupboards or at the grocery store. You are welcome to assist and learn with cooking any day. You will be amazed at how your fridge stops haunting you and starts feeding you! You have more food sitting around than you think..... allow me to show you.

A few of my clients are Hollow Tree Yoga, Rama Lotus Yoga Centre, Madeline Dietrich Holistic Psychotherapist, The New Life Retreat, Andy Fisher-Ecopsychology, Peter Blanchard-People and Planet, Caroline Bookless-Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Wanderlust Reality in Nosara Costa Rica, Jıllıan Hovey Sustainable Living Network http://www.sustainablelivingnetwork.org/workshops/NLR2005/food.htm

Argentina Trip Tracker Nov 18 - May 3 / 07

Helloooooo! Stay tuned for updates and photos when possible about our Argentinian adventures! Thank you for all of your love and support! You can post a comment/hello here below as we may not have time to answer or write emails. Here we goooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!


Nov 19th

So here we are in BEAUTIFUL Buenos Aires! We met Jose Maria of Argentina and Bill and Patty of Philly U.S. on the plane and thankfully shared a comfy cab with them to downtown to be hosted by the lovely Shelly Monahan previously of Ottawa referred by Mildred Lynn (thank you!.) We are headed to Gaia Eco Village tomorrow and then to other organic farms and who knows..........off to the country we go! The travel was long and turbulent but WE ARE HERE! It's hot and romantic and we are very excited. We spent the sunset at a beautiful park with a bottle of wine and a picnic from a local grocery store.......more in store!!!! Talk soon! Love YOU alllllll.....

Nov 22


Ok so we are in Lujan west of Gaia Eco Village, http:///. Our stay at Gaia was short but interesting and we left quite an impact on the residents with Turkish Coffe Cup readings last night which confirmed the purpose, beauty and essence of the place for everyone. Our arrival was somewhat unexpected but welcomed and they had too many volunteers so we stayed as guests for 2 nights to feel it out. They have a nice village with many projects on the go and a beautiful garden. We helped out with food a bit and stayed in a nice clean enviro setting. Solar, wind and compost systems are cool! They were too busy to give us a guided tour so we guided ourselves and asked a lot of questions. We may head back there when they need volunteers, otherwise its $15 a day U.S. food and accomodations, which is fair but costly for the start of our trip! My allergies are going crazy and I (yesim) got stung by a dead wasp on the bus today but it was alright, I was confused! So we are headed to Mendoza tonight on an overnight bus to visit www.elperegrinorganico.com an organic farm near the Andes! They are expecting us......thanks to a referral from Texas Nick who we met at GAIA! Talk soon!!!! Lots of love....

Nov 28!

Hi! ok so we have been here at El Peregrino a week tomorrow. I have had the flu since we got here and am today just feeling a little better. Its going around here so...it started with a headache at GAIA then nausea on the 12 hr bus ride here, vomiting and lots of sleeping, then I felt better Saturday and that night got a really sore throat and still have a not so bad sore throat. The family is really nice and patient and say many are sick at first. So my judgment and mood has been poor and Seb pulled a muscle yesterday in his back so that did not help! He has been very helpful and supportive but I have been hard to be around cause we are in a tent at a new place and I was really sick and it rained and its cold at night here- BUT we are on the mend and will spend a week or so here and perhaps at the other 2 www.wwoofinternational.com farms that they are connected to and see where we go from here. Wish there was more fun to report but the other wwoofers are younger but very nice and have formed a clic that takes time and energy that I have not had to warm up to not to mention the spanish barrier with the family! But its time to get accquainted now that I feel better. Sebs having a great time, he always does which I admire and learn from. I am helping Anna with cooking and market prep so thats fun and seb is doing everything he can, loves the garden of course! Talk soon, Nug hi! Say hi to the folks for us! Love to all!

Dec 3rd

Hey there folks. We are still here at El Penegrino Organic farm. I am much better only left with allergies so thats fine. We will be here till Wednesday the 6th. We are going to an organic cherry farm owned by Ruben Pagliafora and family to experience different farms. Probably for a few weeks then who knows, maybe Cordoba. I was going to write more but someone else is waiting. All in all things are on the up and up and a lot of fun so stay tuned......lots of love.

Dec 9th

Hi all! So we are now at Ruben´s Cherry Farm as mentioned and are enjoying it very much. Lots of Cherries to eat, yum! We have been working on a massive squash crop weeding and adding soil to small plants for days! I also have weeded onions, sorted cherries and picked beans. Another field of sqash after that! Pepe from U.K. from Perengrino is also with us and we are having fun. The family is very kind and interesting and we are looking forward to spending another week with them. They have a typical diet with fresh veggies and like to watch TV and talk with us about politics, the woes and blessings of organics and various other topics. We have been coming to the organic farmers market in Mendoza city for the past 2 saturdays where 6 different organic farmers sell including the cherry farm and El perengrino. Its great to stock up on food we like and need. Also, we use the internet and phone. A Canadian company is apparenty part of starting up a mine in the Andes for Gold which will put the small amount of independant farmers out of land due to contamination! Including the farms we have been at, so all you protesters get on it! So Ben Shultz a friend from home met up with us and is still at El Perengrino having fun! Much fun! Much more to write later.....lots of love. Ciao for now

Dec 16

Howdie! We are going to the beach!!!! Las Grutas south of the capital. www.lasgrutas.com
to see whats up for us there. Hoping to rent a small place and chill out for a while. We will let you know where we are at soon. Our bus today at noon from Mendoza province will take us there for 7am! So short on time, we will update more soon. We had fun at the Cherry farm and did some more coffee readings, always interesting........and helpful! Thank you Ruben and Sandra and family and friends for hosting us!!! We went to the Andes near Chili last Sunday for a day trip, it was awesome! More soon! Lots of love!

Dec 21

So we are enjoying ourselves here at the beach. We rented a bachelor pad from a nice older couple since last Sunday who have adopted us as their own! We leave from there tomorrow for a short trip down the Southern Coast to visit an old indigineous area with Fletch the tour guide and his friend and 2 german girls, katia and johanna. We are camping near the beach for a bit now leaving an extra backpack with Maria and Mario who we rented the bachelor from. We have had nice quiet time getting to know the area and shopping for fresh food and veggies. We found a mini health food store where we found nutritional yeast!!!! Its right before tourist season so we are lucky to be in the lull before the mayhem. Our new camp is up the coast from Las Grutas in a quiet area called Los Colorados with hip friends and travellers. There are large pink stones and white sandy beaches and less people! Anyway we will be here for a few more months as camping is VERY affordable, we think, so keep in touch if you wanna visit! Then off to Chacra Millean Eco Village in Chubut province http://welcome.to/millalen click on english version at side bar. Then back up the Andes through Barilloche, then to visit the organic farms of previous again and then up North and perhaps we will duck into another country if it is renew Visa time by then........talk soon, take care for now.

Jan 6

Happy New Year to all! Well we have definately found a home till the end of Feb! The beach is a really nice place to be. We have met many friends and have been staying at Los Coloradas beach 2km south of Las Grutas, by invitation by Alberto and family and friends. We are camping and sharing private facilities. It is a primative but enjoyable situation. Las Grutas is near by and we enjoy the town once in a while. Its been a while sorry! Guess we are busy! We are helping out at a restaurant a bit, doing coffee readings, babysitting, cooking healthy food for those of us who care! and walking the beach and swimming......... Life is tough. There are down times for sure but we get through them. We are working on getting a photo site for you to click on. Ciao for now, thanks for all your comments and love.

Jan 19

Hi! Still at the beach, hard place to leave and why really? Ash and Kristine the tent is our home and we really appreciate it, thanks! It is withstanding harsh, strong winds! MEC would be proud! There is so much we could tell you but not much time at the internet cafe! So more fun, more sun, all the stuff that makes you wanna be here and not in Canada yada yada yada. Its great because everyday the weather is different since we are in Patagonia territory so it mixes up our mood and keeps us on our toes. I have surrendered to the moody weather, sun and fun and am enjoying myself when I am feeling well. Its been up and down for me in this country. Seb is great as usual of course.....I make lunch everyday for 6 of us health foodies. Abdul buys the veggies, Seb the India clothes stand dude buys condiments, Alberto and Nora pitch in money and supply the facility and wash dishes, Seb works the morning up at the restaurant to help support our showers and dinners and then joins us for lunch. So the weather again, one day overcast and cool, the next really hot and sunny, the next windy and sunny etc. Nights are cool, chilly or warm and nice.......Hope you all are doing well, get through Feb and then its spring again!!! Chat soon, love ya all............

Jan 28th

Hey so here we are again, still bearing the beach life and still alive, which is good, now writing......went to a reggae fest on the beach, Abdul rules! You night owls would love Argentina, bars/parties/ festivals open at 1 am to about 8 am, you nap from 10pm-2pm, so watched the sunrise to beautiful reggae music.....we don´t party late often as recovery takes a week, plus we love the daytime at the beach. Just a short note for now to let you know we are well and happy. Watched a movie on a big screen on the beach tonight, there is one every fri, sat, and sunday, Argentininan movies, very good. Now we check for email emergencies and lovely notes and are off to walk home via the beach and check out an electronic night club on our way by......Love to all......

Feb 3rd

Howdie folks, came into town to watch another movie on the beach called Los Manos, check it out its a touching story about a healer........the full moon is intense! It was full Feb 1st and everyone was hurting themselves or something. I had the 24 hour flu and Corto the beach dog of Alberto was killed in a heat fight for a bitch in heat in the night, Alberto found him on the beach in the morning and we buried him at sunrise. Seb really loved that dog so he is really sad and I am sad too. Happy Birthday Yas! Hope it was great. Thanks for your inspiration! We love you. Well more later of course and Ciao for now with love..........

Feb 12

Just got back from 2 days at Puerta Pyramides in Chubut Province (google it) with Las Grutas/Las Coloradas buddy Rodrigo to visit a friend Lujan. Pics to come. We camped and enjoyed a magical walk down the coast of pyramid rocks. That day was unforgetable to say the least. Our campfires were interesting and inspiring. Feeling refreshed we think of more day trips......its really nice where we are but I am getting restless of the routine. Seb is ok with whatever as usual. Patrice, thanks for all your comments, we are still here and would love to meet them! Send me an email above at the start of my webpage. Hope you are well, looking forward to meeting you one day perhaps. Talk soon! Love.

So write more later, love ya lots.

March 26

Still at the beach! Hard to leave such a beautiful place and why really! Had dinner with Guy and Susan last night at their beachfront apt! Spent the night there and woke up to the beautiful ocean view from the patio. They are good old friends of Seb´s from Canada here to track migratory birds from Canada with the government for 4 weeks in this area! How lucky are we! So cool.

Hey hey, well we have left the beach.........such a special place.........We love you friends of Las Grutas! We got onto the bus feeling so surreal about leaving as we waved to Edu, Poli, Rodrigo, Flavia and Alberto......we appreciate the love and care we received since Xmas (wow) beyond words........it still has not hit me. So strange to be in a city again BUT it is a fabulous city to explore, IF it stops raining. We are staying with Nacho, Belen (we met in Los Coloradas) and Bella- awesome, warm, loving, hospitable friends! They picked us up from the bus station and have been touring us around and showing us the way! Great restaurants, thanks Santiago http://www.eternacadencia.com.ar/home.asp .
