Pure Jeevan Raw RV Tour Postponed.

Wendi posted this yesterday on our Pure Jeevan blog. I thought I'd share it here as well...



When you're young and learning the letters of the alphabet, anything that starts with the same letter as your name becomes really special. Well, ever since I was a child and saw a Winnebago RV with the giant "W" on the side, I've been enchantedContinue

Checking out Senbeb Cafe in D.C. tomorrow (Sat., June 27). Wanna join us?

I've heard some pretty great things about Senbeb Cafe in Washington, D.C. (6224 3rd St. NW., Wash. DC 20011). My daughter & I are going to check it out tomorrow @ 6pm for dinner after a day of exploring DC. (We're bringing our dog, too... heard they have some outside seating!). Anyone want to join us? If so, show up @ 6! :-) -Jim

Wendi and I Will Be Interviewed Tonight on Revvell's "Let's Talk Raw"!



Jim here... Wow, tough to believe we're heading into the end of April already. We've been absolutely busier than ever working on taking Pure Jeevan to the upcoming phase of full-time mobile rawsomeness! We're honing in on the RV we'll be using to tour the country, and we're working like mad to sell ouContinue

Some Thoughts on Cravings



About an hour ago, I purchased $68 worth of ice cream from a local supermarket. Bet you thought you'd never read something like that here, eh? Well, don't worry -- Wendi and I haven't suddenly decided to binge on dairy products. You see, in my corporate job, I'm often the event organizer; today that meant ice cream gopher.

For some raw foodies, that scenario might seem rather… Continue

Raw Babylon



Allow me to think out loud, philosophically, for a few moments, will you? I have a gut suspicion about something, but need to think it through a bit here. I'll start with a quote:

"There have also been a number of traditions around the world that describe a divine confusion of the one original language into several, albeit without any tower [referring to the well known story of the Tower of Ba

Jim! cool, good to "see" you on here :)

We will have a huge feast with my wife's family. They are vegetarian. I will likely fill up on salad and maybe make myself some raw brownies, or similar, as treats. I was also thinking about making some sort of raw pecan/date pecan pie replacement.

I may partake of some non-raw veggie food as well, I'll just see how the spirit moves me when I get to it. In any case, it will be a lot of fun. We are in the new farmhouse now and Angie will have a lot of fun showing everyone around. It's always great to sit around, talk, laugh and just enjoy each other's company!

How about you and your two lovely girls? How is Wendi doing by the way, I've been thinking about her a lot recently and just hoping she is doing well.

Oh yeah and ALSO, since I will have some time off work (yay! finally!) I will be working on writing up beginning on my raw journey for you. :)

Hi Jim - good to meet you! I see you like raw tacos...and you may have noticed they're on my Home Page! I haven't made them for a loong time, and they're not actually 'Natural Hygiene-oriented', and keep thinking I should probably take the pic down, but...I was so proud of them :-) And, OK, got to admit - they do taste good!

Hey, sorry, haven't been on here for a loooong while and missed your message....no I am no longer doing 80/10/10. It was too restricted for me tbh, are you? Are you still not eating fats at all? hows that all going btw? :0)

Yes, we love her.. tiny, sweet girl :). You would probably love it here. We are actually moving to Sonoma in less than two weeks...ahhhhh..the mayhem :). Sonoma is an awesome little town, very central to everything, yet tucked into it's own little valley...very pretty. There are many raw friendly resources around here. Cafe Gratitude, Seed (Yummmm), great raw potlucks all over with awesome speakers, San Francisco, the ocean, even Living Light if you want a get away up the coast :). If you move out this way let me know! We would love a raw friendly, dog lovin couple to hang with! Hugs and Blessings to you!

Once you already have a cold, the best way to deal with it is to eat as little as possible and get as much rest and sleep as you can.

The best way to prevent a cold are to eat foods that are minimally toxic. That means eating mostly fruits and vegetables. Organic if possible. Raw. Fresh. What also helps is getting plenty of rest and sleep. As much as you need. And then all the...
