Hi Louise,
this is Patricia. I will come to Auckland and will go down to Chch later...I am a gourmet raw vegan chef - you may wanna check out my website www.gourmetveganchef.com
If you like we can do something like a guest chef at Raw Power. Let ...
Friday night and Saturday are out for me, unfortunately. Sunday I could do...Monday I have a class... So I could come over on Sunday. Depends on others moves. Are there others? :)
Louise. (likes mungs just soaked and split.) ;)
Hey Louise :)
Great, you're in! :)
An evening meal on Friday 7 Aug will be good.
Are you occupied the night of Saturday 8 Aug, or is just the daylight hours that you're busy?
Saturday (8 Aug) lunchtime, afternoon, or evening is also okay for me a...
I'm in. Which day would suit? Saturdays are out for me as I do the Ostend Markets here on Waiheke. Since your over 90 TaiChiMaster, you could travel there for free! ;) LOL.
Organic stores within the CBD by bus - best bet would be Harvest Wholefoo...
Howdy :)
I'm planning to be in Auckland (Rawkland?) from Fri 7 Aug til Fri 14 Aug (or Sat 15 Aug); I'm keen to meet with other raw fooders, and to experience one or more raw food friendly restaurant/cafe. Who's keen to meet during this time?
Oth...
Hi, I have been thinking the same, would you be up for a chat about options? There must be loads of raw foodies in the 09! (my sister name for Auckland) now to get something regular organised. Dana
Try eating organic apples for a day. Preferably grannie smith if you can get them, but just eat apples. Whenever you are hungry. You can chop them up differently, to your liking, or grate them with some fresh ginger or lemon juice. Do this for a d...
Thinking of getting a few Auckland GI2MR people together for a lunch at Raw Power, or similar, or some kind of picnic ... or something. Thoughts? Interest?
Hi abp, I just found this thread and noticed you live here on Waiheke - I do too! If you come back get in touch for a raw talk. :) There is a great raw bar in high street, auckland called Raw Power - 1/10 Vulcan lane. Also in Wellington (if you ha...
Hi, I have heard of this book but not read it. Now I am out to seek it, thanks! I read 'the Ultramarathon Man' which is equally exciting, more along the lines of human endurance, particularly coming from a man who is not from this linage you talk ...
Definitely, yes, I recommend observing how they affect you and making adjustments accordingly. OK, that's my stance on most raw things...true.
I'm sure some people would sprout them longer just to soften them up more. Or, as you prefer, just chew...
Thanks for your thoughts. They must have a higher nutritional value at this stage also, don't you think? I soak them in luke warm water and drain a few times before I eat them, but they are always crunchy and sweet. I guess I was just a bit concer...
I have eaten them with just the very first indication of root, but I like them best when the root is around the length of the seed itself. No rule for me, just preference.
I do alot of sprouting, mostly mung beans and alfalfa sprouts, but also include lentils and other legumes. I often eat the mung beans when they have just been soaked, for about 24 hours. Does anyone else do this and if so, how do you feel about no...

Awesome Universe, parental consent in writing is needed to get vaccinated so I simply threw the forms in the rubbish can.
You have to do what is right for you. I have been eating at leat 50 percent raw since january 2008. I used to go up to 98% but now I'm just trying to make the best choices every day instead of being 99% one day and then the next 40%. There is alwa...
