Sounds amazing! I've never actually had raw cacao butter, is it pricey?
Thank you, yes I will try that, I just need to get hold of some organic oranges.
Hiya, sounds delicious. I think you could try dehydrating orange peel that has a little agave or honey on it for the candied version?
I would like to share with you my recipe for "magic chocolate" - I hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.

Hi, Bryan, nice to hear from you, are there any specific books you could recommend?
It can be VERY easy with the right books and recipes!
I can sympathize. My husband eats a typical American diet of whatever the heck he wants. Making two dinners every night does get tiring! However, a funny thing starts to happen when you make a raw dinner and a regular crappy dinner; the regular cr...
It is quite a challenge to go raw, when you have a family that wants cooked food. I have been eating more end more raw food the last 9 months, but some weeks ago I felt that I was slipping back towards the more traditional vegetarian diet, almost...

- Roligt att höra din berättelse och dina upplevelser Jannike. För mig har raw food inneburit många nya kontakter med spännande människor, och ett rörligare liv generellt.
Om du känner för det finns det ett forum för levande föda på svenska på greenroomsverige.ning.com. Även danskar och norrmän är välkomna (vi talar ju nästan samma språk). Om du vill kom förbi, och bjud med alla du vill. Det verkar som om raw food är ganska stort i Norge, stämmer det?
kram /:P

- Hey Jannike :) How are you these lovely summer days ??
I'd love to meet you :))
After successful graduating at The Slovak Athletic High School I've moved to Norway to open new doors to life and I'm looking for liked-minded people :) and right now I live in Oslo.
I'd be really very very pleased to meet you :)
Blow lots of refreshing ENERGY to you :))
Profile Information
- About Me:
- I went to a raw-food weekend in an eco-village in the autumn 2008, since then I have been eating mostly raw food. I enjoy cooking, experimenting with food, making my own recipes. I also enjoy to read books about food. I have been living on mostly vegetarian food for more than 20 years, eating some seafood once in a while.
Food is a main interest for me, I enjoy cookinjg and some time ago I bought a dehydrator, to be able to try out more recipes.
I have felt a great effect on my general level of energy after I started to eat mostly raw food. I am also more patient and smile and laugh a lot more - I simply feel happier.
I work in a small ethical savings bank, (have you heard about social banking?) and I am very happy to work in such a supportive and eco-friendly environment. I also write for our magazine, I even had an article about raw chocolate and an other about the raw-food weekend seminar I attended.
- How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
- I felt like stepping in to the unknown, when I suddently decided to go raw. It is quite challenging to cook for a family when only one of us i(me) s really comitted to raw food, the others accept to eat some raw food, but also want to have some cooked dishes. I feel that I need to be able to vary my rawfood recipes more, so my family will enjoy the raw food as much as I do.
One thing that disappoints me somewhat, is that I had expected to lose some weight after the transition to raw food. OK, maybe I lost 2 or 3 kg, and I think that my body has changed somewhat, that I maybe have got less fat around the middle, but still. Isn't it normal to shed more weight? when you go raw ( I used to eat a quite healthy mostly vegetarian diet.) My BMI is somewhere in the upper part of the normal range. What is a "normal" BMI for a raw-foodist? Weightloss is not that important, I feel quite good about my body, but it would be practical to have maybe 10 kg less to carry around. I would appreciate some good ideas about shredding some kg's with raw-food.
I want to be part of this community to feel that I have made a normal, sensible choice about my eating habits (as I know very few raw-foodists in my own circles I sometimes feel like a strange animal in a Zoo when I go out with friends on a restaurant and ask for a plate of raw vegetables).
- Relationship Status:
- Married
- Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
- I love to taste new recipes and have no particular favorite.
- Interests (outside of Raw Food):
- BookCrossing, reading, music (mostly classical), learning Russian, health, nutrition, generally I love to learn new things, and I think the web is a splendid invention, especially if you are living in a small country (like me) - you can always find somebody in the web-community who shares your particular interests.
- 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.

Ohh nice! Yea, they're addicting as hell. If it wasn't for the price I would look like the Berlin Wall by now.
Wow that's got to be tough. I think I would set myself on fire if I had to live with or near either one of my parents. I'm going to try to keep distance from them & keep a diary. Thank you for the support RGG
It hasn't faded any yet, but I've only heard of problems with some of the phosphorus inks and ours don't have any in. But who knows, the approved UV inks have only been out a few years and they're more expensive so not a lot of people take the opt...
Wow, I'd pay to see that

Yeah, he doesn't look like the healthiest 62 year old. Well, at least he seems to look healthy at a glance, but he looks a bit aged for 62, and he seemed to have a stiff jaw or something going on there.

Summer saulting through the air is my favourite move. I sometimes do it mid-conversations when the person I'm talking to is dull.
Haha..love it!
In Europe, people don't have psychologists, I'm told, they have friends, get me? (I had a friend, she said talking made it worse, with her it sure did, for me anyways, was all we talked about, her issues. I just wanted to do her, had the chance to...
The Krishnamurti stuff seems right up my alley. Thanks for pointing it out.
Thank you AU. You read my mind, I love camomile tea! I'll try to slow things down & keep a diary.
Finn, will it fade over time like most white & pastel color inks?
Group tattoo, that's awesome. I like the camaraderie when someone with a misfit tattoo points to mine.
i have been in this situation myself personally a while ago,where i had sex in front of other people...its not something i would ever repeat...
