Hi Anna! First of all, you should do just fine with granny smith juice for now. Keep it up. I really, really like the herba dolce and stevia in the raw brands. They, unlike some of the NuNaturals products, don't contain maltodextrin, and I find ...

Thanks Gena, funky name you got there :) you Russian by any chance?

Durian is definitely an aquired taste, it's got a bit of an onion flavor to it. So don't plan on any dates right after trying it, unless ofcourse your date indulges in it as well. It's got a spikey shell, this is how it protects itself from predators who cant disperse its seed, so it becomes an ordeal to open it up. I used to get it from Chinatown and cut those babies up myself, Bonobos has it as well if you dont wanna do all the work to extract the good stuff. Let me know if you try it again, I got a kick out of getting my friends to try it for the first time to gauge their reaction.

These days, most of my volunteer time goes to a group whose goal is to educate young ppl about situation in the Mideast, terrorism and ways to fight it. We actually have a volunteer named Gena as well :) I'll send you a link if you wish to read more about it.

I must say that I'm surprised you're still a vegan after reading Carol Alt's book :)

Good idea Danny. I'd layer them, though, 'cause the amount of produce I pack in there, the seem might not hold. :)

Are you crazy women? I love animals. I had frogs,fish,birds,cats, all at one time. My apartment was a zoo at one point. My cat at that time got hold of some of my love birds. Wasn't a pretty site.

Wow, 6 weeks is INTENSE. Very cool. That's 42 days. Well if Moses and Jesus can do it, then why not the rest of us?

Philips event is sold out but it sounds like you can still show up, order off the menu and dance if you don't have a ticket. http://www.lovingraw.com/blog/2009/10/15/the-party-is-coming-to- cali.html

well I agree with the above poster that legalism vs love, which is how I view religion versus spirituality, are two very different ways of approaching raw food, or anything for that matter. Raw foods are not my religion. They are not who I am, or...
