Two weeks raw again

So finally I have reached at least a 80% ratio. I cannot believe how hard it is when you fall off the wagon to crawl back on but here I am. Being 80% it's really easy to move to 100% though I don't' think I'll every be 100% just because I like cheating a little in life, and that's just me.

This week I've been on a pumpkin craze, Pumpkin pie, pumpkin dumplings, pumpkin bread, pumpkin cookies. I just love this time of year.

Unfortunately I've been eating so much pumpkin I've been neglecting my g… Continue

Trying to stick to 100% Raw

Ok, surgery is finally over!!! Been five weeks and I'm feeling stronger everyday. I made yam casserole and unfortunately I got creative and thought I would throw and apple in there. Ohhh man totally threw the flavor off, BLA! I'm still eating it though and last night I made pumpkin pie but with the yam mixture and macadamia cream, MMMMM it was so good I ate a whole bowl.

Been having sweet cravings awful so soaking sesame seeds for sesame milk which helps with sweet cravings.

Sooooo fun fun fun… Continue

I wish I could figure out how everyone has the slide show of there pics. sigh. The ones above are some of my photos from Cali which I visit often. Not a photographer but as an artist I do have an eye for beauty. In California you can't take a bad photo. LOL The country is so beautiful. These were above San Fran on highway1 near Bodega Bay.

Anyone want RAW almonds, unpasteurized? Well get ready for a drive to California. The government recently decided all sold almonds that are shipped must be pasteurized. With a small loop hole though you can pick them up raw from the orchards at 100lbs only a person per day.

How insane is that

Anyway I'm planning on a road trip or to send my son who's out there to pick up some. If anyone would like to go in on some RAW almonds let me know. The ones even at whole foods etc are NOT raw.

Will be most likely in October

Hey there Nimisha, I'll be leaving for Mexico on the 2nd so won't be doing any raw parties or meet ups till when I get home around the 14th. I hope I get to meet you too soon. Love meeting others of like mind.

Courtney I sure am!!! I keep wanting to go and something always pops up where I can't make it. Very frustrated. But after my surgery I'll be sure to make one of the meetings. I've heard nothing but good things about the.

Beck, You know what, I just don't know. Comic Cafe is pretty open to doing things like that and a few places I've gone I've let the chef get creative with a raw salad. But so far, not much. It's very frustrating because my friends and I like to eat out together. Few people have talked about a RAW restaurant but I just don't think Dallas is ready for that until more people can see how tasty raw can be. Been to some might fine ones in New York though. My mouth still waters with the memory of a raw burger in NY city that was like a slice of heaven.

Do you have any suggestions as to where to go out and eat for a raw foodie in the Dallas Area?

I love it cause it is an intense workout over a short period of time. My son had a "jump rope for heart" week at school that got me into it. It uses different muscles than running and also improves coordination a lot, and I was surprised how well ...

Survivorman is crazier, did you see that episode in the desert when he started talking to birds? But I still like Grylls better overall. I feel like there is more of a point in watching the show, you feel like you're learning something, lots of tr...

That's a pretty typical scene in a high fruit household. That an a ton of bananas. My dryer next to the washer has stacks of fruit carts on it. :)

Right--it's good in smoothies too. It's a necessity when there's no fruit in there!

In water with a twist of lemon or lime, in teas, in water (with flavored stevia), and with millet or quinoa.

Thanks, Jeff. This looks good too.

Hi Lizz, I haven't tried yacon; I think it's still too sweet, technically. I believe stevia is truly the only natural sweetener that is not a form of sugar. When I add vanilla flavor and a little coconut oil to the stevia, it's kind of like maple...
