  • OKay, now I have an urge to go through every one on the list. In order. Rawifying where needed.
  • Oooh, very cool..!
  • Top 10 Reasons Why The BMI Is Bogus by Keith Devlin http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=106268439 Americans keep putting on the pounds
    in What's your BMI? Comment by Pirawna
  • I don't believe in that BMI at all. When I am 10 pounds overweight and getting "muffin Top" over my pants, it says I am on the low range of just right when you can obviously see I need to lose weight. When I am perfect, it says I am too thin. It doe…

  • Spritz water with rosewater on your face first to give it the hydration it needs. Then the oil or moisturizer will seal the water in. I use witch hazel as a gentle toner/cleanser now and then. I don't find it hydrating.
  • There must be a huge difference in taste between the raw and roasted. Trader Joe's was selling bags roasted apricot seeds as a snack a few months ago, so of course, roasted or not, I HAD to taste this new (to me) item. And they tasted a helluva lot …
  • That's an awesome present. Very cool of your mum.
  • Good for you KMcR. You got the last word in by LEAVING and taking her son with you soon after. Tough shit on her. I must say it sounds EXaCTLY like MY ex-monster-in law. I really thoght you might be my ex's new wife or something. lulushka8- My paren…
  • Yea, the options suck. Which is why I really don't have a lot of sympathy for any man that whined about a condom not feeling good. Doesn't feel good for me either. I feel like I am doing it with a BALLOON sometimes with a condom. That squeaking soun…
    in Birth Control Comment by Pirawna
  • It feels WAY better to ME also without a condom, but we all have to make sacrifices. I am not married, so I will take no chances with pregnancy or disease. So I am on the pill AND I insist on a condom. lol. I don't like that I have been taking these…

  • I used to live on roller skates when I was about 9 and 10 or so. Neighbors would ask if they were permanently attached to my feet. Fast forward and I am about 32 years old. A friend had a party at a roller rink for their child. They talked me into r…
  • Yes, I believe it's true and comes back to you. I went for over 10 years not touching a bike and bought a mountain bike and started off roading. I haven't touched the bike again for another 8 years and I am very confident I can start again with no p…
  • Blueberry juice is also good for UTI. No sugar added of course. I get the start of them often from sexual activity. I OD on liquids and fruit juices cut with aloe and coconut water. Well, this sounds weird, but I also put coconut oil and sometimes c…
  • KitchenAid. My small one is probably older than you are and going strong, and my new big one I got for Xmas is working like a charm.
  • Seaweed usually covers my cravings for that. I love dulse leaves rubbed with olive oil to snack on.
    in Craving Seafood Comment by Pirawna
  • Oh, that's right. I totally forgot about seaweed. I couldn't live w/o my seaweeds. but what gets bumped? This is hard.
  • 1. Coconut (in ALL its forms) 2. Bananas 3. cantaloupe 4. Chia 5. Kale 6. Celery 7. Parsley 8. Saurkraut 9. Avocados 10. Romaine
  • It was clear to me you asking if wine was raw or not. It's an enigma to me how some people just LOVE grapefruit! They taste like battery acid to me and I KEEP trying tthem, but I think at 41 years of age, I am not going to change and it may be they …
  • On a someone's raw website or blog maybe, it showed her trip to a winery where she confirmed it was indeed raw as the temps did not go above 95 degrees. And yea, its fermented! lol. Yea, it may not be ideal, but I enjoy my wine now and then. I look …
  • I have a bullet. My morning green smoothies require a vitamix though. I make a large amount to last me through the morning and then sometimes for after lunch as my snack or even pre-dinner. Lots of greens and apples and stuff, so need the VM to make…

  • "Once my sister and I had a bunch of people over for a party-- we cut into a beautiful red pepper and a full-grown moth flew out! There must have been a tiny hole into which a mother laid eggs. This poor caterpillar spent its whole life enclosed in …
  • I have made chips with my chard and I found they were MORe sturdy, which made me like em better. Guess I had some thick chard leaves. It wasn't rainbow chard.
  • Very good write up. I LOVE parsley in my smoothies. I just love the fresh taste it imparts to everything. Same with celery. I like cilantro in my smoothies when I do pineapple or kiwi. Kale is fine but it gels everything up. I HATE that. Which is wh…
  • Pixx- If you cannot smell, does this mean you cannot taste? I have never liked patchouli. It smells like dirt or body odor to me.
  • Ooh, I like the products at the Terressentials website. I don't recall seeing that brand at my HFS. I may have to put in an order. Good prices on facial care also. Since Lush products have become outrageously priced.
  • Nothing pisses me off more than someone who will criticize food that they have never tried before. Annoying that he wouldn't even try it. I have had that happen to me at work. But I told them if they won't even try it, then shut up about it. I also …
    in I'm about to cry Comment by Pirawna
  • I really give kudos to people who went right from SAD to raw. Well, RIGHT BEFORE doing the raw thing, I guess I was SAD, but that would be misleading. I started eating whole foods about 20 years ago and became vegetarian shortly after. I gave up dai…
  • I disagree that calories are calories. Someone can consume way less calories with all that fat-free and low-fat refined and processed crap out there and lose less weight than someone consuming more calories of nutrient and enzyme rich foods. I watch…
  • Make raw cookies. Raweos. Those raw treats and raw entrees that reminded me of cooked meals are what kept me on track in the begining. Now all I crave lately is my greens and salads and green smoothies and fruit. Weird. Kale salad I cannot live with…
  • Oh, you changed your avatar. It threw me off. I'm glad your mum is coming around. I love Ani's book (the first one). My faves so far that I can think of off hand... *The brazilnut broccoli mash is AWESOME with the portobellow "steak". *The breakfast…
