  1. Synchronicity

    I am a big fan of The Artist's Way. One of the ideas discussed in it is synchronicity. When you are moving in the right direction and open to the universe's influence things start to happen that help you out.

    Well, shortly after my post about Passover I discovered that I will be able to take flax seeds with me to the family that I will be staying with!! Furthermore, I can even use my dehydrator for prep before I go. I am going to make a whole bunch of spinach wraps to put sandwiches ...

  2. Fear as an excuse

    I've been psyching myself out, wondering how I would deal with passover at my friends house, not wanting to make pain out of myself and what I would do without dehydrated yummies or my vitamix. I'd more or less just decided that I would eat whatever everyone else was eating and leave it at that--accept that I'd feel awful and gross.

    STOP.

    I was starting to get frustrated--My eggplant bacon had been sitting in the dehydrator for days. 3 days and finally I just gave up and put them in the fridge--there were other things that I wanted and needed to do with that machine.

    Put up a ferment on top of the dehydrator to keep it warm, three days later, there was still scarcely any evidence that any ferment was going on. Strange, but after 7 days we moved it to the fridge as per our directions.

    Well, we'd been ...

  5. Challenges this week

    The past few days have been challenging.
    I didn't do a good job of making sure that I had the foods that I needed in the house and I let myself slack from preparing meals for lunch. Often I would just be hungry, and snacking on SAD junk that people left in the lounge.

    I'd planned last night to go out for Food week here in Boston and knew I'd be eating SAD, but now after all the "this little bit won't matters" and the meat and dairy that I ate last night, I feel ...
