& the fog rolls in...

it is a chilly & misty morning here in the rocky mountains. it doesn't feel so much like summer today, but it seems like a great day to do some inward searching. clean some house. take a bath. nurture myself.
the family found out this week that my father was diagnosed with leukemia. it has been an interesting journey for me, finding that all i want to do is move back in with the folks and juice for him every day until he's healed... and realizing how far i've strayed from my own ideals and w… Continue

~Raw Adventure Week~

Soooooo i'm on day 3 of my 'raw journey'~ i received an e-mail on Friday from Jinjee about their 7-Day Raw Journey Program (an e-book with menu plans for the week, shopping lists & information plus access to a support forum).. it was only $10 to sign on and it sounded nice to have recipes and menus all planned out for me so i could just eat simple yummy nourishing raw foods without having to think about it and plan so much... and it's been fabulous! i haven't exactly stuck to the menu plan 1… Continue

Aaaaaaaaaaah! ~(*happy sigh*)~

Just got back from the gym~ this taking care of myself thing is really working out for me! (ha~ no pun intended ;] ) But seriously! I'm getting ready to make up a nice batch of celery-cucumber juice~ my fave!! I'm feeling great today~ the past few weeks i had been getting a mid-afternoon energy slump, but since eliminating wheat/gluten from my life & focusing on fresh organic fruits & veggies those have magically disappeared & i've been cruising through my workday!! Fancy that! I've… Continue

Hello!
Here is the recipe for Tonka's Delight: 3 raw chicken drumsticks, meat cut off the bone with scissors. Bones put in plastic bag, smashed with hammer or rolling pin. Plus a side order of raw chicken liver/heart/kidney, should be 10% of the whole meal, and also a squirt of Cat vitamin paste/sauce, and sometimes a little minced turley for special occaisions. This provides everything a Tonka needs - bone (only cooked bones are harmful, never feed cooked bones... raw bones are safe and required for a Tonka ) , taurine(internal organs), vitamin paste - just to cover all bases and coz they love it. Turkey mince is just for variety.
Bon Appetit!

Kool. I had the idea ages ago to make magical protection/good health/blessing collars for cats and dogs, I never did anything with it. It is a good idea though. I'll make one for Tonka and see what he thinks. Best advice comes from a cat, specially if they are called Tonka ;)
At 5:09pm on July 20, 2009, Zoe said…
that is so kool how we had to connect for you to find out the meaning of Tonka, rather find it out alone. My Tonka was the biggest kitten in his litter! He is a big Siamese cat, muscley like a bodybuilder, and a clown. You can get Tonka beans online from witch/wicca/shamanic online stores...we could string some together on elastic and make our Tonkas a collar out of them, hmmmm;)))

No way!!! I have NEVER heard of another cat called Tonka, no wonder he wanted to talk to me about you eating catnip!! You know Tonka is the name of a Scandinavian god of war, and it is also the Sioux word for Great or Big, and you can get Tonka beans that are used in witchcraft for prosperity spells. Before I got Tonka he came to me in my head and told me that was his name, he chose it I;d never even heard of the word before. And it is true he is very big, great, and feisty! I feed him raw meat...just makes him even more of a tiger ;) Lots of love to you and Tonka, from me and Tonka!
