I am successfully all raw in Alaska. It has been a bit of a bumpy ride to get here, and I would love to share what I've learned.

You seem to have the ability to laugh at yourself while thinking deeply. You do not care much about what is thought of you. I think we may be kindred spirits. You look lovely in your damp skirt, and manly too. It's obvious that you are straight. I...

Profile Information

About Me:
I grew up in Mexico and Spain, so I love the diverse flavours of ethnic food. I have two little ones, my son is 7 and my daughter is 6. I homeshcool them both. I struggled with eating disorders since I was 14 and have recovered recently. I also discovered that I am celiac which probably explains why I never felt okay having food in my stomach and broke bones every time I fell, so I have many dietary restrictions and see that a raw diet can help me rebuild my overburdened system.

Raw food in a cold climate.

I'm wondering about eating raw food while trying to eat locally in BC. It's tricky to find foods to eat when oranges, bananas and tomatoes are out of the question. I live right in the hub of local farms so we have tons of concord grapes and pumpkins. I'm wondering if anyone out there has sustained a raw diet based on local foods. Are imported foods not too cooling for the system when the climate provides other foods seasonally? Should I just purchase imported foods?

Henry David Thoreau (born David Henry Thoreau; July 12, 1817 – May 6, 1862)[1] was an American author, poet, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, historian, philosopher, and leading transcendentalist. He is best known for his book Walden, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings, and his essay, Civil Disobedience, an argument for individual resistance to civil government in moral opposition to an unjust state.
Thoreau's books, articles, essays, journals, and poetry total over 20 volumes. Among his lasting contributions were his writings on natural history and philosophy, where he anticipated the methods and findings of ecology and environmental history, two sources of modern day environmentalism. His literary style interweaves close natural observation, personal experience, pointed rhetoric, symbolic meanings, and historical lore; while displaying a poetic sensibility, philosophical austerity, and "Yankee" love of practical detail.[2] He was also deeply interested in the idea of survival in the face of hostile elements, historical change, and natural decay; at the same time imploring one to abandon waste and illusion in order to discover life's true essential needs.[2]
He was a lifelong abolitionist, delivering lectures that attacked the Fugitive Slave Law while praising the writings of Wendell Phillips and defending abolitionist John Brown. Thoreau’s philosophy of civil disobedience influenced the political thoughts and actions of such later figures as Leo Tolstoy, Mahatma Gandhi, and Martin Luther King, Jr.
Thoreau is sometimes cited as an individualist anarchist.[3] Though Civil Disobedience calls for improving rather than abolishing government – "I ask for, not at once no government, but at once a better government"[4] – the direction of this improvement aims at anarchism: “‘That government is best which governs not at all;’ and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which they will have.”[4]

Hi! It is nice to see you around! I just made raw refried beans and sour cream today and going to have that later on top of cabbage wedges. Have you tried raw nachoes yet?

Hi Lisa, thanks for the add. Is that your son in your profile picture? If so, he is a cutie! I love Europe and Spain is one of those gorgeous countries I've visited, actually I've only visited Seville. Hope you have a great day. :-)

It's very possible. 15+ years in the game, and you learn a lot, like how to reach your audience. You think he'll let me see his home in Hawaii?

I've met some hit chix on GITMR. Not satisfying in the least. Just the opposite. Most communication is self-defeating, accomplishes nothing. I would love it if people would leave me alone when I'm out and about. Anybody else?

Mariam, watching this raises questions: for instance, is this guy just an actor? Seems like it. "Am I glad I went"? Well, in the sense that I knew I had to see him eventually.....I guess I got it over with (and used up my airline credit). Is he a...
