Wow! I’m amazed I could log in & get this far :) How’s everyone? I just checked what they charge for the edible bouquets, and holy cow! I’m thinking what I can make for $50 is better that what they are selling for $185 – of course that’s not all organic (but neither is theirs), and add another $15 for raw chocolate dip…I’m still way ahead :)
I miss the working site! Hi everyone! I’m so excited about the fruit flowers, I’ll probably drive everyone nuts, but it’s a creative thing for me, and it’s yummy, so…deaal with it! I got a good deal on some containers at the craft store, and I’ve simplified so I won’t be buying so many fruits, and it will be great :) Now I’m getting ideas for veggie flowers, and I know what I want to bring for a veggie tray in summer! :)
Luna – How are ya!?
jen – Miss you – are you gone already? Can’t wait to hear how you enjoyed Mexico :)
om – Did your anniversary party go well?
ardes – thanks for checking in on us. Is your house smelling good again? (No more dead durians? heehee)

This totally sucks, didn’t know I was addicted to this site…..
Hope everyone is doing well.
Ang- yes the carcass is out but the smell is still lingering just a little bit. When I discovered the dead squirrel I was eating raw fig newton now it seems I can’t stand the taste of those as it reminds me of that smell.
Last night we had a grand time me and the family. The wife and I fixed spaghetti and then worked out while the sauce and zoodles were dehydrating. The little one was in the living room, to my surprise she had this huge sign that she drew that said welcome to Just Family. That’s the name of our raw restaurant at home “tee hee” anyways she had the theme music for LION KING playing in the back ground a candle lit and place cards at the table for where we sit. It was really nice.

st – There you are! :) I figure everyone is having the same troubles… I have been doing a lot of work on the computer, so I just keep 3 internet windows open and keep trying, and maybe once in a while I get far enough to read or write something on here.
ardes – That stinks about the smell in your house :D
So I have been planning the fruit flowers, and that got me thinking about veggie ones for summer parties, and today I look and someone posted a “recipe” for veggie flowers :) Yay! I’m thinking of using some as a centerpiece when I teach the raw food class for the women from my church in August. I told them I want to do it at the end of the summer when I have veggies available from my garden. (I don’t want to have to charge people for it, but I think people really need to feel and taste the food to understand how great raw can be!) I’ll teach them how to make a raw dip/dressing, and maybe raw tacos or a raw ratatouille or something a little more savory &/or filling for fall/winter eating. Things that aren’t too complicated.
WElcommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmme back everyone,,,,,,
hello…i survived raw without goneraw. it was rough though.
Angie~ How did the M-day creations go? Pictures!!! Pictures!!! :)
Glad to see everyone is returning and doing well! Miss you guys!
Oh my gosh, this is the first time I could access the site in days! Yay!!! I was ready to jump raw ship… okay, not really!
I’m at over a month now, and doing great. :) I can’t imagine eating any other way.
Angie, I can’t wait to hear what you do with the fruit flowers.
more later, gotta get ready for school! Three weeks left, yay!
Birdie
Well, this site is still not 100% yet. I just wrote a big post and it pulled a ‘we’re sorry, but something just went wrong…’ on me! GRRRRR!
Ang – enjoying no school? Yess my mood is back to normal, feeling much better!! Changed my avatar to suit it. Ironman! Guess who saw the movie!! It was FUN, great flick!!
berry – some people don’t dig cocnut water. I can’t see why not!! To each their own eh? So do you know who Hellboy is now?
Helooooooo to everyone!! Hope the site doesn’t get stund again!! Man it was touch being raw ‘alone’! you don’t realize the support this site gives untill you can’t use it!!
EVERYONE - This is my second day of a green smoothies feast/fast, any one care to join in? i love doing these, I get such a glow!! i am doing it till Sat. dinner time!!!
I stumbled apon a site the other day called beyond veg. It was debunking raw foodism. Stating it was an ‘ism’ and other nonsense. I think the autor of the site tried raw and failed. Stating that they lost stength on raw and were getting frequent colds and such.
What are these people talking about? What are they doing WRONG? And why are they trying to make raw look bad? I have expereinced only fantastic changes in my life when raw. I am still as strong, if not stronger on raw. I have tons of energy. If I get sick, it is soooo very mild and lasts only a couple days. My emotional state is pretty much always up and chipper.(I used to have two emotions, miserable, or indifferent. No way to experience life!!) My skin glows! I am so much more optimistic!
Are those nay sayers of raw, only angry at raw becasue they failed? i don’t know what their probs are. But don’t tell me that raw doesn’t work when clearly for me, it does!!!!
Just thought i would vent a little bit!! :)
hey, we can finally play again and there seems to be nobdoy to play with! Where is everybody?
HELLO EVERYONE!!! Wow, what was that all about? It was like a week or something, i cussed a blue streak too! Glad to be back! Guess we are all addicted! teehee, I am having surgery on my lump and have a question for you guys..should i do a smoothie feast until then( roughly two weeks?) I have to fast for 12 hours prior to the surgery( a one hour procedure) andit takes place at 2 in the afternoon, how conveEEEEEEEnient! NOT! anyway, i thought to super charge my bod and to maybe get used to eating less for the surgery i would do a smoothie feast…input?
Luna, i saw ironman too, loved it! i also saw on netflix “no country for old men” loved it too, but then Cormac Mcarthy is one of fav. authors…my hubby was like”thats it?” at the end…hahah classice cormac! anyhow so glad to back big hugs big hugsOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO talk to you soon i hope!
It’s wierd, I abore violence, yet I adore superhero movies. It think the comic books violence is more make believe to me. Although the Afgani parts of Ironman REAllY stessed me right out!!!!! Yuck. Those guys don’t have a really great track record with sawing peoples heads off and all! I think i would have just dropped dead the second i realized i was in an Afgani terrorist prison if i were in ‘Tony Starks’ possition. God, ya fart and they are liable to shoot you!
hey everyone I can’t play to much will chat tomorrow…. between making new recipes, and working on the new jeep I just bought I am now getting all of 2.5 hours of sleep a day… I fell asleep today in a meeting at work, and I honestly couldn’t tell you how long I was out I just remember opening my eyes and everyone was looking at me. I guess it didn’t help that I was actually suppose to be presenting at the moment. LOL >....
ardes – what model of Jeep did you get? We have had our Patriot for the last month and LOVE it. We needed a bigger one than a YJ or whatever they are, due to the enormous dog, and camping gear and what not! You need to sleep dude! 2.5 hours is NOT enough!!
om – What lump? What did I miss? You ok? G. smoothies for 2 weeks straight? Well, if you can do it, go for it!!
hey la luna! its that stupid hematoma..it has not reduced significantly in the 6 weeks ive dealt with it and my general practioner woulnt even touch it so off to a surgeon i went and he says remove it…as weird fate would have it,i met a 69 year old woman at the park where we always go for mothers day picnic and she had one on her butt for 10 years! i could still see it throughher jeans! OMG no way am i hanging onto this thing tht long…so i agreed to surgery and have been sweating bullets about it everyday. i want to be as nutrient dense as possible and as clean as possible so i thought smoothie feast…ive done a simislar thing for about 5 days but not two weeks, my plan now is to do smoothies all day and have a meal in the afternoons until three days before when i ll do all smoothies. i want to n ot be starving and irational on my required 14 hour fast prior to surgery…im stressed out enough by it as is ;0)
Ardes, you gotta sleep man, your body needs to reboot, ask for some help at home or something and maybe dump off your work out for a time, but you have got to sleep, how are yousupposed to maintan that denzel quality if you look all haggardy? heehee
angie how are things?
Berry, what up girl friend?
Luna Blu- I bought a 1989 YJ Wrangler from a old couple that lived in the country. We had a great time going to get it. It so funny we drove down to the Lake Hartwell and we were looking at all the cute little cows eating grass and acting merry, but then we passed this one farm where all the cows were huge and a pinkish white color it was kind of scary not sure if they were cloned or what, but they all looked very sad. Oddly enough this was the only farm that had a huge covered barn area that went for miles it seems. Not sure what was going on with that farm.
Om- hows your bum doing, and yes you are right I have to recharge and get some sleep. I have been showing the wife how to un-cook a little more but I am not the best teacher as my paitience wears thin very quickly and I start taking over.
Angie- Where are you . !!!
Berry- uhmmm I need someone to cut my grass.. It’s such a shame i just can’t find time to do it. I can tell my neighbor is pissed she keeps making these weird faces when I go to the mailbox. It’s not really that bad but I stay in one of those neighborhoods where everyone like to compete and I am just not up to it.
ardes i have to laugh , I live in the country where the wild things are and yet do to some really ironic twist of fate, i moved next door to the only unstable man on the street. I should have known something was up when the OTHER neighbors came over to “welcome ” me and asked if”jim” knew about my horse business…well its been all out war ever since! yet another reason for me to move….just yesterday the firedept came out to discuss weed abatement with me( fire season fast approaching) of course my weeds are under control as of last weekend when my poor gardner spent all day weed whacking…however, I know it was Mr personality down the hill that called them out here! just as he called county on my grading, health dept on my septic tank repair,and county on the suspicion i was running a business here…that jack ass has no life apperently…. three acres is hard enough to maintain with 6 horses two chickens and four dogs let alone all these freaking trees shrubs and flowers…..anyhow what a waste of time for the fire department! the funny thing was the fire guy was one of the ones who came out to haul me off to the hospital when i fainted after recieveing my hematoma! he goes” arent you the gal who fell off her horse?” hahahah im infamouse! oh well good thing your neighbors cant turn you in for an unmowed lawn!
om – Oh. Still the but thing! Well at least it’s not a touma. (I am saying it like Arnie) Anyhow your neighbour sounds like a total Jack a$$!!! He should mind his own bees wax! I really pity people who have absolutely nothing better to do than make misery for others. He should get a hobby! On another note, did you happen to notice in ironman, the one scence he was working on his suit, I think he was drinkin a green smoothie! It looked like that to me at least.
ardes – yeah that sounds like a factory farm. Those critters are probably so sickly, and pumped full of junk it’s unreal. They are miserable cause they are treated poorly and live in aweful conditions. Well, if my guess is right!!
Ok I have had it up to here, I am sure you all have heard about the stunt squirrels I have in my neighborhood. Well it seems they have spread the word and now I have a bird stuck in my fire place. Any ideas how I can get him out. The squirrels I just let out the front door, except for the little guy who died in there ” I didn’t no he was in there”, but things that fly are a little unnerving to me. HELP ….. And yes I am working on getting a cap on the fireplace, but between prepping and my new bad ass jeep I haven’t found time to work on the house TEE HEE>
ardes – hee hee hee, sorry man, can’t help you with your circus. Hee Hee Hee! ;)
Well, ‘Ironman’ is ready to play paddycakes, and it looks as though there is really no one to play with! So I am going to go do my yoga and blast off to work!!
I’ll check on you kids later!!
WOW woudln’t she turn ORANGE
tee hee air traffic controller…. No small fire the bird is actually in the fireplace, so I have to find a way to capture him and let him out. I just hate things that fly and if he was to get loose in the house I would never hear the end of it.
Thanks for compliment on the jeep, the wife seems to have a good attitude about it even though I spend most of my time on the JEEP.com forum.
