• it isn’t raw.. that’s the only thing, but at least it would do in an emergency. Also, dehydrated fruit is great to stock up on as well. The nice thing about home canning though is that if you run out of drinking water you can make up for it with the…

  in Canned organic beans okay? Comment by chicory
• I think everything that comes from a can tastes like a can! my grandmother and I do can (by can I mean in glass mason jars) applesauce, peaches, tomatoes. we stock them in the basement in case of an emergency. You could also save seeds and things as…

  in profile is a long line of type? Comment by chicory
• we used to eat them from our garden growing up, marinated in balsamic vinegar and olive oil, with sea salt, oregano, and basil. yum! I can’t stand store bought tomatoes. They are always exposed to cold, and have hardly any flavor, are mealy and pale…

• it takes me the same amount of time… I was baking gluten free breads, and preparing all meals from scratch while I was SAD. Much less dishes to wash..less electricity used, no baked on grease now! no funky smells lingering in the house either. After…

  in the other SAD.. seasonal anxiety Comment by chicory
• I love the change of the seasons…. fall is beautiful, and I love the smells and crisp air. I couldn’t see myself living somewhere like san diego where it is always the same! but winter seems to drag on and on for me… makes me moody

  in the other SAD.. seasonal anxiety Comment by chicory
• I am grateful for so many things in life, big and small….. That I still have my eyesight, and my hands still work well enough for me to sculpt, and my feet to walk! Grateful for a supportive, gentle, centered partner, my two rescued feline furballs …

  in Green smoothie question, about kale and/or collards Comment by chicory
• if the spine is really thick, like in a giant kale or collar leaf, I remove that part. Of course, I just have a run of the mill cheapo blender, so i try to be easy on it :)

• good call. Some of the B vitamins are okay because they are water soluble, like Riboflavin. My neuro put me on 400 mgs a day for migraine maintenance, which he said was fine. B6 ( I think that’s the right one) is fat soluble, and too much will cause…

  in nutritonal yeast-how bad is it? Comment by chicory
• All you can really do is eat it and see how you feel. If you feel all tired and or bloated for hours after, I’d say no. But, you might eat them together and have no trouble at all. Our bodies all digest differently.

  in purple potatoes? Comment by chicory
• the potatoes were really cheap… got them at a new international market that just opened here. Why is it that at int. markets, the “exotic” fruits and veggies are reasonable, but should the same stuff be sold at the regular grocery it is 4 times the …
