After one month of feeling awful and wanting to give up on raw foods, I am finally feeling great. I decided to do the smart thing and go to a doctor to check if my ailments were the result of a vitamin deficiency. Having researched raw foods for months, I knew that this was a common pro…

A picture of the flowers my boyfriend bought me. I am so lucky!
Today was a fairly normal day at first. I thought that since I don't have very many "personal" type posts I might start with one today.

One thing that she eats at ton of is greens. We al…

Today, I am going to try to do nothing. I have some homework to do, but for part of the day I am really going to take some time to relax or hang out with some friends. I worked a lot this weekend (nearly 18 hours) so I feel that I deserve some sort of break.
Yesterday I went on a walk in some woods near the Mississippi river. It was really nice to be near nature, but the nature here is so weak compared to the abundance in Central, MN. I am going to have to go home soon. I wonder if the trees ha…
