Hey Rawbies!!!!!

While everyone is enjoying their delicious Mushroom creations, I thought I'd tell you the theme for next week's party......

Drumroll, please.....!!!!!!!!!

.....dum

.......DUMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!

Cucumbers!!!!!!!!!!!

I was showing someone the segment when Alissa was on the news show with Katy Couric and she made the Cucumber juice!!!! I love that juice, so I'm inspired to make next weeks party a CUKE-Y one!!!!! (Get it....CUKE-Y!!!!!!!)

LOL!!!!!! I crack me up!!!!!! :dance:

So, here's a quote from our Lovely Aleesha about how it will work:

"We are planning on having one of these parties a week. Renee is going to choose the ingredient (like this week was blueberries) and she'll choose a recipe for us to make. We can make the one she suggests (cause we looooove her suggestions) or you can make something else.

Then we'll share our creations.

Since someone asked about it being on a weekend. Our next party will be on Sunday April 3rd... and the lovely Renee will start a thread later today letting us know what the ingredient will be so we can all start planning!"

So who's in!!!!! This will be our third party, so if you were unable to make the Tomato party or the Mushroom party, don't dispare!!!!! Come on over to the Cucumber party next week!!!! It'll be a blast!!!!!!

Let's get creative with it! I'm planning to make a dish from LOLF AND RFFE!!!! Come on over to see what I make!!!!! I'll post photos, too!!!

Let's show 'em how we RAWK it here at RFT!!!!

I made a cucumber salad. The recipe is from the Rawvolution book, but it's really a pretty basic salad with a LOT of cucumbers, dill, red onion, and a dressing with olive oil, apple cider vinegar, lemon, salt and garlic:

Here's a picture:

Hello everyone!!!!!

Lani, your salad looks delicious!!!!!

Aleesha, I wish I were there to sip that juice wit ya!!!!

I'm so sorry I missed the party yesterday, but I've got a GREAT reason!!!! I'll make another thread about that....

Anyway, I did make something with Cucumber in it! I made Watermelon Soup and added cucumber to it.

Once I get my schedule together and plan better this week, I'll be better able to make the party next week....

Here's the ingredient for next week: STRAWBERRIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The possibilities are endless!!!!!!!! There is Alissa's Strawberry Pie, Strawberry Toaster Tarts (which I've actually never done before!!!), Soup, Juice, Rollups, Icecream (from RFFE).....so much to choose from!!!!!!

So, see you next week at the party!!!!!!!!!! :dance:
