About Me:
Hola! I am in the midst of transitioning from a cooked vegan diet to a raw one -I'd say I am about 85% raw if I had to guess. I lived in Costa Rica and moved back stateside in June. I am from Miami and am a spiritual, happy open-minded guy. While I am rather clean-cut in appearance, never judge a book by its cover. Something tells me life would be even happier and easier if I was involved with people (friends or romantic) who ate pretty much the same way; thus I am requesting the same from the universe. And also requesting someone come my way that inspires me in a new business - I am open to relocate anywhere...as long as it gets some sunshine!

Hey, I am headed to Sarasota this coming week for the national ultimate frisbee competition, and was wondering if you knew of any raw spots in that area. I will prob just go for lots of fresh fruit, but was curious if there were any established restaurants or anything. Let me know if you know of any please! Thanks
Samantha

CANCER: c/o Rob Breszny
Soup is your metaphor for the week, Cancerian. Symbolically speaking, it's the key to your personal power and a model for the approach you should take in everything you do. On the most basic level, you might want to eat some soup every day. That will make potent suggestions to your subconscious mind about how to mix lots of ingredients together so that their value and beauty as a totality are more than the sum of their parts. Not just in the kitchen, but in every area of your life, blend many little miscellaneous things into one big interesting thing.

Hi! So sorry I missed your mail... Unfortunately, I didn't make Vanessa's event. I've yet to make it to one of her parties, which is absolutely ridiculous, given how much I love her bars and chocolate in general. Did you go? Are you here in NY?

I too am doing the same thing with my food eating vegetarian and starting with more raw, Would like to make more friends that are doing the same. I am living in Naples and coming over to Aventura to stay and going out in Miami with friends that live in South Beach on the weekends. This weekend I am staying home for I just got back from there and just feel I need to take it slow so the following weekend would love to meet you and make a healthy new friend.

Hi G Love,
So great to meet people of non-violence and pursuing peace and sharing and love in live. This community of "Raw" people is ah-ma-zing!
Love your philosophy of treating animals the way they deserve it! I adore the animal world with compassion that makes me cry. And Gandhi is all about non-violence to thy self first and foremost.
The best in your pursuing of your dream. Follow your passions.
Thank you for sharing.

New Zealand is just more environmentally conscientious than most places. I guess being an island is part of the reason. I loved NZ when I visited.

You could make an avocado chocolate (or carob) mousse but sweeten it with stevia, so you'll only be getting the fat and not the sugar. Or you could make a green smoothie (or a regular, non-fat smoothie) and freeze it into sorbet:-)
