Sue’s Bread Pudding
If you’ve read CPM’s recent posts on The People Feeding Project, you know that we move a lot of food around weekly, shuffling ingredients from here to there and cooking things to hand out to the city’s hungry. A lot of food gets handed out. But the truth of the matter is that what we cook id free or mostly free. And we aren’t the only ones shuffling around ingredients either. This recipe features bread, which we are gifted weekly via our friend Liz from her friend Camilla, who retrieves day old bread from bakeries in Napa, which then arrive to Food Is Free Solano. Day old bread is PERFECT for bread pudding.

During the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the US government provided funds and USDA food boxes to help feed its food insecure citizens. It’s estimated (as of 2020) that 13.8% of the population is food insecure, and nearly 44 million people use food stamps. The USDA food box program, a lifeline for hungry Americans, has now ended.
Enter Food Is Free Solano. They collect food from food banks, schools, and just about any source that has extra food that would otherwise go to waste. Each week, CPM collects still edible salads and almond milk destined for the dumpster and delivers them to Food Is Free.
Founded and operated by Heather Pierini and a gaggle of great volunteers, they provide food to anyone. For free. You don’t need to qualify to get free food from Food Is Free Solano, which is helping our food insecure neighbors survive another week without wondering…

Sadhguru is a Yogi, Mystic, and Visionary. Named one of India’s 50 most influential people, Sadhguru’s work has touched the lives of millions worldwide through his transformational programs. He has a unique ability to make the ancient yogic sciences relevant to contemporary minds, and his approach does not ascribe to any belief system but offers powerful and proven methods for self-transformation.
An internationally renowned speaker and author of the New York Times Bestseller Inner Engineering: A Yogi’s Guide to Joy, Sadhguru has been an influential voice at major global forums including the United Nations and the World Economic Forum, addressing issues as diverse as socioeconomic development, leadership, and spirituality.

Through powerful yoga programs for inner transformation and inspiring social outreach initiatives, Isha Foundation has created a massive movement dedicated to addressing all aspects of human well-being.
I had the pleasure of interviewing Sadhguru on Episode #965, and I was thrilled to have him back on the show! If you’re ready to learn the truth about karma, identity, and purpose, you don’t want to miss Episode 1,117 with the legendary Sadhguru!

No matter how afraid you are of doctors, procedures, lab testing, or fearful ‘what if’s’, may we each take responsibility for the needs and well-being of our bodies, as our precious awakening vessels of life force energy. May it not be seen as a failure of your inner healer to seek appropriate medical support, whether choosing modern medicine, a more holistic approach, or even a blend of both. May we come to see caring for our bodies as a way of praising the holy name of our divinity as the light within and beyond all space and time. May we come to see how loving ourselves isn’t just a matter of saying nice words to our most insufferable parts, but taking the time to care for your well-being instead of giving fear more places to hide in you.
Sabbā āsattiyo chetvā,

With all one’s attachments cut,
with the heart’s pining subdued,
calm and serene and happy is one,
for one has attained peace of mind.

Sukhā virāgatā loke

Freedom from lust is happiness in the world,
the going beyond all sensual desires.
But the crushing out of the conceit “I am”–
this is the highest happiness.
