The cover is great!!! If I didn't know who Alissa was, I seriously would have thought she was in her twenties!! Alissa is getting younger all the time!! Wow!! :eek:
I would so love to get the book!!!! I'm wondering, if I can pre-order it when I walk into Barnes and Nobles??? I would love to get it for friends and family, especially for the holidays!! I think this would make a great gift for everybody!! :)
Oh geesh, I have to wait patiently for the book!! :D
Renee, thanks for posting!!

I ***KNOW***!!! I'm SO excited!!! :cool: I can't wait for mine to get here!!!! :D
Alissa has put so much into this book! It definitely has not been born without it's share of "drama", but she has a WONDERFULLY SUPPORTIVE Hubby and such a positive attitude! I know that she has circled her "wagons" and proud of her new "baby"!!! :D

I'm SO excited about this new book. Alissa's book is my favorite and the one I use all the time. I'm curious what this new book will be like? Mostly recipes?
Wow, gorgeous cover. She looks beautiful and we know she just had that taken. How old is Alissa now, does anyone know?
Alissa
05-24-2010, 11:35 AM
Hi Everyone! Thank you so much, I'm so happy you love the cover! I'm not that old :) - 43 in June.

Awesome! Being a raw food newbie I could really use a handy guide with instructions on raw food storing! I keep asking myself "Should I refrigerate this?! Will this keep better if wet?! ACK!" So any instructions on that is super helpful for a newbie like me.

Hi Gossy!!!
I actually had the same questions when I first started!!! Things like Alissa's Flax Crackers I just put in a baggie or plastic Container for storage. The Pancakes I will refrig or Freeze, but I do not think they will last long!!! My Hubby was just "stealing" two of them!!!! :D
Most things I make up, I will store in the frig or freezer... but really RAW is best eaten FRESHly made. What I do is take Alissa's recipes and make 1/2 of the recipe. If that's still too much, I'll make 1/2 of the 1/2... get the point? ;) If I made Marinara Sauce, I personally only refrig it only a day or so. You'll get the hang of it!!! :D
Have you tried Alissa's 30 day plan as outlined in her 1st book (I ***LOVE*** saying, "first"!!!), Living on Live Food? With those recipes I recommend making all of the dishes the way she says to do it because that food will last you for a couple of days at a time. Just put what's left over in the frig and enjoy it the following day at room temp or dehydrate at 105 to take the chill off...

Thank you Renee!! You're so helpful :)
I'm still waiting for my copy of Alissa's first book to wing its way to me via the lovely USPS. In the meantime I've mostly been making green smoothies and salads. I can't wait to get the book and follow the plan, really get myself detoxed, and have some of the yummy recipes to try out!
I mostly have been having issues so far with knowing how to store properly my fruits, greens and veggies. Especially since I stocked up on quite a few and the crisper got full fast! I got some lettuce keepers for my greens, but I'm never sure which fruits should go in the fridge to extend life, etc. I usually *try* to go by where they were located in the produce section, but I've also been curious about whether or not I can keep things fresher in the fridge, even if they were just out in the open at the store.

Is this book going to be more accessible to Canadians than the last one? (The first one Amazon could not order for our country and the shipping direct from Alissa's site cost as much as the book!) because I would love to buy it :)

Will the new book have more complicated recipes or will it still be Newbie easy? Will there be more nut free recipes?
Alissa
05-29-2010, 06:39 AM
Hi Sprouts2go,
Many of the recipes are a little more labor intensive but they are not hard, just different techniques. There are a bunch of pretty easy ones also.
Yes there nut free recipes in the new book. Although a lot of the recipes have the Grezzo cheese or other cheeses in them, but you can also make them without it to create nut free meals.
My first book has a ton of nut free recipes also. Funny, people think it is heavy on the nuts but have you made:
Enchilada
Pizza without the cheese (which is how i always make it now and its better)
pakoras
pasta
Burger buns
Chili
watermelon soup - my favorite!
spinach dip
hummus
roll ups
and more!

Hi Livelife,
My living on live food book is about 28 dollars to Canada.
I mostly only sell my book on my site.
The new book is published with a major publisher and will be available in all major book stores and online at the retailers listed on my order page on alissacohen.com, which includes Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Borders, etc..
Thanks!
Alissa

Your book was only $28 but it cost $30 to ship UPS to Canada. That was the issue. It is good to see we can get the next one through Amazon. Should be cheaper shipping.

Exciting!! And it's huge!
Excited I can order it from B&N - I bought the other book @ a raw food class in Portsmouth and I'm out of the area for a few years, so me = psyched! :)
Alissa

Snoops,
My book is 30.00. The cost of shipping to Canada is 28.00. I don't have any control over the post office. We ship it the most inexpensive way possible. UPS used to be much more so we ship it through the post office to Canada now. The books weighs 4.5 pounds, so the shipping price is not that of a 1 pound book.
Thanks!

Hey Alissa!!!
Should I delete the link for the site to pre-order your new book in the beginning of this thread once you set it up to order from this site? That makes since to delete it so that people can order it from you...
Oh, BTW, I got an email today with an estimated shipping date of October 28, 2010!!!!!!!!
YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And....It's SOOOO GOOD to see your posts!!!! It's always good to hear from you!!!!
Hugs,
Nee
