• Pray and turn the issue over to God, realizing His grace is ultimately what will get me through. Along with that I remind myself of things I am thankful for, I spend time with friends and go rock climbing (my favorite thing to do). I used to turn to…

• I Just ordered 4lbs of Almonds and they came vacuum sealed in one pound bags. This made me really happy!! I go through mine fairly quickly though but usually only buy a couple pounds at a time, so I just store them in air tight jars. I have some les…

• What type of sprouter? Are we talking about a jar with a lid that has holes in it, or are you talking about an actual sprouter (like you would use for wheat grass).

  in Sprout seeds Comment by Caleb
• Done. I like all the google ads that pop up for raw almonds when I am done. I wonder if we were petitioning fur coats if ads for fur coats would pop up ;)

• Yes, Synergy is it. http://gtskombucha.com/ And yes, you can start with the cultures in the Synergy drink. The stuff my roommate brewed was started from the small cultures at the bottom of a store bought drink. The stuff grows fast. The culture he h…

  in Kombucha..?? Comment by Caleb
• My roommate brews it so I get it free :) But occasionally I buy some raw flavored kombucha from my local health food store. I can’t remember the brand name but I have seen it at other stores, Whole Foods should carry it, you will likely find it next…

  in Kombucha..?? Comment by Caleb
• Lagston, I think this is fairly common. Motion sickness. I get dizzy really easily too. Spin me around a few times I will surely be dizzy. Haven’t tried it since going raw though ;). I remember in HS having to do “monkey rolls” in practice. I took D…

  in Dizziness Comment by Caleb
• There is no Trader Joe’s here, but we have a Whole Foods and compared to my locally owned “whole food store” the small local owned is OFTEN a lot cheaper. Especially on things like nuts and seeds. But if you have a dehydrator you should be making yo…

• “anything you buy in a jar has been pasteurized, and the sealing process involves heat” Not always true, I buy raw olives from Sunfoods that are raw, I also get raw Kombucha as well. Your best bet is to check the label. It will saw Raw if it is. FDA…

• I just put my alarm across the room (no wardrobe needed for me). Once I’m up I don’t get back in. I had a roommate though who did the same thing, but he would snooze for two hours straight. It was annoying when you wanted to sleep in that day. I nev…

  in Intelligent Christians using common sense... Comment by Caleb
• Hey DoDo, I have actually never heard another (or heard of one) Christian claim dinosaurs don’t exist. It would be absurd to make such a statement. Also, the way I see it it doesn’t matter if humans existed at the same time or not. It’s totally irre…

• Thanks for the suggestions guys. I got so busy I forgot to check back. I ended up making a huge salad with guacamole and Cinnamon Girls from RawVolution. They loved it. Although my dad didn’t like how I made the guac, but mom liked it.

• I agree with sweetpea about stuff with lemon jucie. I have had sunflower cheese that has lasted weeks. Andy my dressings (although not creamy) last over a week easily and usually have namu shoyu, olive oil and lemon juice in them. Sometimes one of t…

• I just started using http://roadside0stand.almondsalive.com/index.aspx for almonds. Looks like he just dropped the price from $8.50/lb to $8/lb including delivery. They are organic raw.

• The whole 80-10-10 thing sounds more like a burden to me than anything. I admire those that can do it, it takes A LOT of discipline. My lifestyle is too busy to even attempt it. I am sure it’s super healthy for you, but in my world view I believe ou…

• I don’t have a good answer for “creamy” types, I would actually like to know that, but I make some that keep for about a week or two out of olive oil, namu shoyu, lemon juice and tahini. It tastes pretty good and keeps really well. It congeals quite…

• I know the feeling!! :) I have been eating raw for about two months now. My detox lasted nearly a month, but was worth it. I usually always have lots of energy now except for days like today when I don’t get enough sleep. That is about the only time…

• I have used both. Prefer the big leaves though, but there is not a huge difference. With the banana smoothie I make the banana overpowers the greens anyway.

  in Green Smoothies Comment by Caleb
• My usual green smoothie is 2-3 cups of spinach, 1-1.5 bananas, hemp seed protein, then add about a cup of water, sometimes I use rice milk. I have seen tons of others that sound good, I am drinking a non-raw grocery store bought one right now that c…

• Yeah, I was referring to once it is sprouted? What changes about them after the 1-2 weeks, how do you tell if they have gone had? Mine have always tasted fine beyond that, but I don’t think I have gone past three weeks.
