:D :D I have been researching the idea of Raw for a few years, experimenting for the last few months and I am ready to do it full force. I just feel it deep down this is the way we are meant to eat, just thinking about living this lifestyle is filling me with excitement I can't even describe! So today I ordered Virgin Oil De Coco-Crème 16 oz Jar,Cacao Powder (Raw, Organic) 1 lb,Org. Raw Peppermint Truffles, 5.5 oz. ,DVD and Book,Spiral Slicer ,Excalibur Dehydrator (5-Tray) + 4 non-stick sheets and I got my mom to buy me the Vitamix in exchange for making her green smoothies. My mom has cancer and I am trying to lead her healthier "treatments". I hope I am better at uncooking then cooking though. :p I live in a very raw unfriendly place so I hope maybe I can make a business out of this eventually and spread the word. I will be looking to you wonderful people for support as I do my best to make this work for myself and my kids. And I hope that in the future I will be able to be the one giving support.:)

Welcome to the forum!!!!

Your enthusiasm is very inspiring, I'm sure you'll do wonderfully!

I was a horrible cook on sad, but am happy to say I've had many uncooking successes so far! There's hope, believe me! :D With your enthusiasm for raw, it will come out in your food prep too!

I look forward to "seeing" more of you here! :)

So happy you're here! :D That's a beautiful gift you're giving your mom (and a wonderful exchange), and should help in her recovery.

I've been 100% raw for 22 days and very happy and very energized, and I'm living almost exclusively on green smoothies, so I can recommend them highly. :p
