Let Them Eat Cake!

I just got back from a fantastic vacation in Dallas. 10 days away really was refreshing. And I love how being gone makes me love the mountains and my home so much more. I had a great time with my family, great time with friends, great time at Bliss Cafe... yes, I spent a lot of time there. I think I tried almost everything on the menu. Almost.

Raw in Dallas - Bliss Cafe, baby!

Bliss Café in Dallas.


My first Raw Restaurant Experience was stellar. Here's my mom and me showing off the Bliss sign while my dad acts as the photographer.
If you’re ever in the Dallas metroplex – hitting up Bliss Café is a definite raw foodist must. Non-raw foodists are welcome too. At… Continue

Wish Upon a Dandelion

My green smoothie today has dandelion greens, ginger, a pear, one scoop of green Superfood, cilantro, some water to thin it up a bit, and celery.
Speaking of dandelions. When I was a kid, I used to take the seeded buds, make a wish then blow the white, wispy seeds all over the yard - or where ever I was. I'm sure all the weeders of the world were thrilled by that. However, I know all those wishes came true and I played an important role in the pollinization of dandelions. As the song on the soun… Continue

One Year Raw Anniversary and Other Musings

I just looked down at my shirt to see if I'd spilled my morning tea on it. Yeah, my middle name is Grace. I hadn't. But the glance did show me a smallish stain from the other day (I often wear the same shirt more than once in a week...so shoot me). Maybe I should have separate clothes piles. One for "clothes with raw food spills" and another one for "clothes okay to wear another day before washing." Just a thought.
Tomorrow is my One Year Raw Anniversary! Hooray Me! What a difference a year make… Continue

Curious as to how you'll explain away the sons (plural) of God, mentioned in Genesis, chapter 6.

"When men began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them, the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose."

I don't consider myself to be religious.

I don't know if that's an understatement or an example of irony, but I've got tears in my eyes from cracking up. It's kinda like Fox News saying they're fair and balanced.

And the ONLY reason you believe what you do about rubbers is because of what the church has told you. They work. Case closed. For the thousandth time, I am living proof that they work.

Okay. Just saying you were whistling a different tune a couple of months ago.

By the way, religion is extremism.

I've seen that Jesus song. Don't leave dopey stuff on my page. Did you get Fry's point about how the church spreads lies about condom use?
At 3:47am on November 20, 2009, Charles said…
I really liked Stephen Fry's speech. It starts around 2:45. Just skip to that.

Modern hypotheses supporting a flat Earth originated with English inventor Samuel Rowbotham (1816-1884). Based on his interpretation of certain biblical passages, Rowbotham published a 16-page pamphlet, which he later expanded into a 430-page book, Earth Not a Globe, expounding his views.

Did you catch that phrase in the middle? I italicized it in case you missed it.

BHUBANESWAR, India – Hundreds of poor Hindu villagers in eastern India have refused to hand over a rare turtle to authorities, saying it is an incarnation of God, officials said on Tuesday. Villagers chanting hymns and carrying garlands, bowls of rice and fruits are pouring in from remote villages to a temple in Kendrapara, a coastal district in eastern Orissa state.

Policemen have struggled to control the gathering and have failed to persuade the villagers to give up the sea turtle.

“We have asked the villagers to hand it over as it is illegal to confine a turtle, but they are refusing,” said P.K. Behera, a senior government wildlife official.

The turtle is protected in India and anyone found keeping one without permission can be jailed for a year or more and fined. But adamant villagers have refused to give up the reptile, saying the turtle bears holy symbols on its back and is an incarnation of Lord Jagannath, a popular Hindu deity.

“Lord Jagannath has visited our village in the form of a turtle. We will not allow anybody to take the turtle away,” said Ramesh Mishra, a priest of the temple.

I stand corrected. He really was a mediator. I wonder how good he is at contract law.
