Hello, To show my love of Michael Pollan, author of "Omnivore's Dilemma" and other books, I'd like to direct you to his recent, lengthy but very informative and fascinating call to the president called, Farmer in Chief http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/12/magazine/12policy-t.html?partner=permalink&exprod=permalink He explains to the coming president that he cannot consider the energy crisis without thinking about how wasteful our food is produced. And more! For those of you who find th… Continue

Above are decorations we made for my lil' birthday party last Saturday. The party was great but not raw since none of my current close friends are raw and barely know I am. It's just not an issue I want to get into with them.

Anyway, I was satisfied. The food was vegan and good, the partygoers were enjoying my dance m… Continue

Hey,
In case no one at GI2MR hears from me it's b/c I'm on a 10-day Master Cleanse and so am avoiding any discussions about food. I'll be back next Sat. to catch up and glean any new recipes that have popped up in my absence. Can't wait!!!

In the meantime I'm doing lots and lots of knitting, dancing and of course drawing.

FYI, my new favorite raw website is Freshtopia.net.
I'm in love with Tanja Andrews.

Love to all,

Hello,
Somehow I've gotten myself into a rut where I've gone over a week without any exercise save for walking. I'm not going to get into how I feel about it (bad). I would just like to hear or read some motivational words about movement. Anyone have any handy?
Does knitting count as exercise?
I've been practicing yoga for over 10 years and love it. Love running too. Just...gotta...get out...the...door.
