  • ardesmond – excellent idea about calisthenics! I can’t wait to add this to my routine, and see what happens.
  • This is excellent information from Storm. I’m so glad ya’ll posted this. I’m new to raw, so I had no idea i’ll be having extra energy that i need to use in order to stay raw. zoe- good to know that greens calm you. i had problems feeling jittery bef…
  • lalala – i went to the site and thought the same thing, hehe.
  • Cherre: Read this excerpt on enzyme nutrition by Dr. Howell. Great book, by the way. I read it and it helps me to understand raw in a completely new light – and this is after i’ve known about raw foods for a whole year! Go here: http://www.amazon.co…

  • I loved this, aspire! The cartoon showed how silly the money system can be.

  • Cherre – Gabriel Cousens has wonderful books with information on this issue specifically. Conscious eating, for example, is a good book. Lots of folks have candida problems.

  • VITAMIX!!! i own it, i use it 2-4 x a day for creamy dressings, alfredo sauce, peanut butter, fruit roll ups (blending the fruit to dehydrate), ice cream, green/fruit smoothies, almond milk, etc.
  • What a beautiful story!
  • I agree with sweetpea about books and videos and forums. I read one book a week about raw… Enzyme Nutrition by Howell is the latest one i read. it’s GREAT! and a surprisingly quick read. I watch videos on youtube every other day. They keep me inspir…

  • I’m 50% fruit and 25% veg, 25+ greens. Green smoothies helped with my energy level. Taking naps has helped me a great deal. Regularly walking or biking is helpful. On some days i eat mostly fruit, some days mostly greens. I haven’t noticed any relat…
    in How do you feel? Comment by Winona
  • Wow, you have 20 raw food books? i would eat anything you made in your kitchen! i don’t own a single raw recipe book. juliano’s book is okay, it was a little too complex for me but his recipes were good if i learned how to make em. try making sweet …
  • wow izhpt, those are some great tomatoes – i wonder how they’ll taste. sorry that your farmer’s market isn’t certified. my market is all organic produce. it’s pricey – i dropped $42 on saturday for 4lbs honey ($14), 2 bunches radishes, 1 pound lettu…
  • I’m thrilled you posted about this! I’ve been bubbling over with excitement about our farmers market. It’s in an idyllic setting by the water, with a festival atmosphere. Dogs, kids, and relaxed adults mingle and gnosh on local goodies. Random folks…
  • I like green smoothies because of the fiber.

  • i just bought some red bananas. they’re cute and sweet little things. i got them in mainland USA. never seen the ice cream banana.
  • bitt – it’s very interesting that you reflected on Victoria’s book and the cooked food addiction that she mentions. I don’t crave cooked food either, and I think it’s because i gave up dairy, wheat, and white sugar for a couple years before going ra…

  • When I got my dehydrator, I realized that I wasn’t very good at making dehydrated food. some recipes were failures, some were successes. I don’t always have the time to try things – but every week or so i’ll attempt a recipe. my biggest problem is t…
  • nycgrrl – I know what you mean. I see clearly, now more than ever, that so many things are wrong with this world (see the thread on overpopulation and sustainability) but i find myself happier than ever in my life. i’m grateful that i found raw, i’m…
  • lizk – people reminded that my beautiful stainless steel togoware can’t be microwaved and it won’t keep food warm. but then i realized… it doesn’t matter to me!!
  • hi libbyB- i love the togoware container. i use it to take my lunch to work.
  • the best place to get calcium is from your greens, and get sunlight for vitamin d. certain greens are particularly high in calcium (spinach, i think kale/swiss chard) izhpt – hwat you said is right on target.

  • Raw Model is smokin’ hot. I agree with mandelicious on that one.
  • Zoe – my boyfriend said the same thing, but he referred to Juliano as a ‘hot chick’ – he really didn’t realize juliano’s male! but then again, he thought the Hanson brothers were females. mmmbop! teehee.
  • Sergei is #1! How can anyone compete with a man who cooks this goodness? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vIY6JXs3EU&feat… The romaine lettuce video is priceless too! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1Ja18cTXvw&feat…
  • hehe i’m glad you admire those delicious hippies too! shout out to all the crunchy bicyclists!
  • haha you gals are funny. i agree – there’s something sexy about natural men. I’ve always been attracted to hippie vegan bicyclists with long hair – there’s TONS in my town. they sit around in the park with big dogs and guitars, chomping on organic p…
