About Me:
Interested in locally grown (preferably by myself), organic and sustainable food.
Very interested in expanding my horizons. For example, I stumbled across this collection of 50 interesting clips on RAW food:
How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
Tips relevant to my location, such as place to eat, shop, meet other raw foodies. The San Francisco group has been great for that...
Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
Depends on what's ripe http://www.dolezalek.com/chris/Edible-Garden.html
Interests (outside of Raw Food):
Ultimate Frisbee, Biking, Tennis, Poetry, Travel, Wildlife, Photography (http://www.pbase.com/c_dolezalek/tanzania2001&page=all)
Tunes...

Favorite Books or Authors:
Omnivore's Dilemma, Siddhartha, Roots of Buddhist Psychology (audio book)
Favorite Quote:
Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate, but that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that frightens us... Also: http://www.dolezalek.com/chris/FoodForThought.htm

GI2MR Oath: I promise to do my best to keep this community drama free. I will not name call or throw around personal attacks. I pledge to be respectful even if I do not agree with another member's opinion. When possible, I'll try to smile : )
Yes! I accept the GI2MR Oath.

My favorite food is picked fresh from the own yard...

Often the birds and squirrels beat me to it. I've yet to figure that out (e.g. netting) so that I still get what I want. I've got a variety of plants (http://www.dolezalek.com/chris/Edible-Garden.html) I share with the animals. The citrus they leave alone for the most part. Having it organic with ponds etc brings a great deal of wildlife (butterflies, raccoons, skunks, hawks, herons, egrets, hummingbirds, salamanders, lizards etc).

Dawn of Meditation (aka Eat Without Cooking ;-)

Black or White, Night or Day,
Good or Evil, So they say
Look deeper, by the way
You’ll discover, shades of gray
So much wiser you shall be
Than the others who cannot see

Eyes now opened, more you’ll find
Nonetheless, you’re still quite blind
Life may seem a little duller
Until you learn that there’s color
Take that step so luminescent
Still you’ll be
an adolescent
Close your lids to open your eyes
There's more to see beneath these skies… Continue

Hi Chris, it was lovely to meet you and Kristy. It was great to hear a little about what you guys have growing in your yard.

I hope your youngest was a-ok when you got home.

I'm sure our paths will cross again. :)

P.S. Such cute raw friends you have in your photo albums!

Thanks for the tip RawDaddy. I wasn't able to find any reference to Equinox having their food; I add what info I could find to the list. I will keep in mind that you're looking for something in the area.
As for your profile comments on working only with friends... ever seen the "Five Biggest Mistakes That Entrepreneurs Make" (http://edcorner.stanford.edu/authorMaterialInfo.html?mid=364 )? I hear what you're saying, but in the Bay Area high tech world, I've taken a slightly different spin, I enjoy working with kindred spirits (people I'd like to have as friends) yet my greatest weakness has been not leveraging the benefits of the Yangs in my world (if I consider my self a Yin).

Chris, great site. You should add Cafe Solstice in the Equinox Gym in P.A.. They are now offering their complete menu there. The same menu they have at the one in San Mateo.

I'm a raw/vegan chef, and I'm looking for space in around the peninsula. The rents associated with the foot traffic in P.A. make it pretty prohibitive to find a good space there that pencils out.

I'm putting it out there to all the raw/vegans to keep an eye out for me however. Hopefully something will pop up that makes sense.
