Give it to me Raw

Updates Abound! (along with other random bits and bobs)

Greetings to all once again, and apologies for having disappeared from activity on GI2MR for quite so long without a word. Life has been busy, sometimes chaotic and confusing, but at times the need for austerity arises as a means to create something better for others and for oneself down the line...

Anyway, the purpose of this post is to update all of those who may be interested in what the future holds.
I've made similar posts in various other places and have also started two new blogs on blogger.com which are related to Food for Life's New York office and the new raw/live/wild food education and experience project of which I am playing the role of co-creator and ambassador, Living Food for Life!
I've already made my first post and there will be MANY to follow! I hope that many of you will please consider following these blogs and offering sincere, insightful feedback. :)

At the moment I'm definitely encouraged to keep momentum flowing as far as blogging and online community in general are concerned, although I'm currently overloaded with work and making serious progress with the new Living Food for Life project. At this time I am diligently working toward getting this raw food program adequately funded in time for us to coordinate a trip to Chicago so that we may do some tabling at Lollapalooza!

Tabling for Food for Life Global and the Living Food for Life project at this event means absolutely everything to me at the moment, especially since it will make my trip to California for another event on the 21st of August more possible (and also because I absolutely live for giving away amazing food and making people happy).
If anyone reading this post happens to have any useful information relating to how we may be able to easily obtain permission to table at this event (or lives in the Chicagoland area and wants to volunteer to help in any way), please do contact me immediately.

As mentioned just a moment ago, we're also in dire need of funding, volunteers and interns for the New York office. We gladly accept donations from those interested in helping us to establish and build our new office/projects and are now offering subscriptions to a monthly membership program so that we may be able afford to make such trips and plan more for the future.
The starting rate for our membership plan currently stands at $5 per month, but other amounts are also absolutely welcome. In the end it all adds up and helps our charity to fulfill its purpose and live up to our mission, so any amount is welcome and greatly appreciated.

Donations will be accepted at various related events and establishments in the NYC area, and I shall be posting a PayPal button at the end of this entry for anyone who cares to help, and offer my sincerely heartfelt thanks (and possibly a thank you gift as well) to all of those who do.


Links for donation and subscriptions for membership can be found at the bottom of my latest entry here.

Namaste, D.

You can always ask a produce dept. employee at Whole Foods to cut one open so you can try it before you waste your money. It's store policy to let people sample things:)

"Healing With Whole Foods" by Paul Pitchford is a great veg-friendly book on Chinese food cures. Here is the spleen section on googlebooks: http://books.google.com/books?id=YD-H5tBVNbMC&pg=PA341&lpg=PA341&dq=healing+with+whole+foods+spleen&source=...

LOL- yes, I meant blood vessels. I must've been typing in a hurry;) The spleen (in Chinese medicine) holds things in their place, like blood in the vessels, and organs (keeps them from prolapsing). I wonder if you had a spleen issue back when the ...
