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.

Thank you, definitely a nice fruity snack! Dried pineapple is the best and those asian pears dried are yummy too!

Just realized that I entered the wrong link for dehydrated fruit / fruit leathers and wanted to make the correction. :) http://www.fruitfromwashington.com/Recipes/drying_fruit.htm

Homemade fruit leathers are awesome! http://simplyrecipes.com/recipes/how_to_make_fruit_leather/ nd if you have a dehydrator you can make a bunch of delicious fruit snacks.

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!

Thanks so much! I will look for it next time I am at my Whole Foods.

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...

All almonds sold in California are treated with a gaz or a chemical, in both cases the almond does not sprout, it is hence dead.

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
