I am really not much into fall fashion. I need to be in a warm climate year 'round I guess. However, I love jeans! Jeans jeans jeans! Oh yeah, I love the ankle boots too. Maybe some of you fashion divas can inspire me with some good fall ideas.
Thanks, do you wash them first or can you skip that part? I am thinking that they are so delicate, the less you mess with them the better off you are. I mean, as long as there isn't any bird doo-doo on them you should be ok, ;)
I have several mulberry trees that have berries that are getting ready to ripen. Any recommendations on the best way to preserve them? I am thinking about dehydrating them. Do I need to rinse them? Can I blend them up and dry them into a fruit lea...
Thanks! Yes car camping is a little easier and you usually have some sort of access to a grocer or know when you last chance to get groceries would be. The real challenge is backpacking because you need things that are lightweight and compact or s...
Hiya, I camped once early raw without preparation and it was a nightmare. The second time I was very prepared and took lots of things with me. In my cooler bag I put a jar of oil/vinegar/herb dressing and perhaps a seed pate to last the first day ...
I love camping and backpacking but I have never camped or backpacked raw before. Aside from granola and trail mix, does anyone know of any good recipes or ideas for lunch and dinner? Thanks!

You want to get a brand that comes in glass if possible, and amber glass being even better. Coconut oil is a fat, and fats will interact with plastic and leech it out.
I'm using garden of life's coconut oil. It comes in glass. Can be found at who...

I would like to buy one book, ( I already have the Complete Book of Raw but there are not a lot of photos and I am visual).
I am thinking of Ani Phyo's book but wanted to here what you had to say.
My situation is in regards to ingredients I can g...
Amen, Loren. So do you feel the same way about blending then? The whole fiber is still there with blending so not improving on nature as much as sort of 'pre-chewing', if you will
I'm planning to start enemas too (I think when my roommate will leave next month...). Of course it's unnatural, but we have eaten unnatural for years and years and I believe it can help a lot getting out the waste.
I just wanted to ask, what water...
I have a full size Excalibur that I never use. What an investment huh?
I just found I prefer my fruit n veggies simply prepared, I have little patience for the dehydrator. Ive seen the magical things people prepare with it though, so if you like m...
