    Mother's day has always been a bittersweet time of year for me. First starting with my strong desire to be a mother and not being successful with that, then the loss of my sweet baby boy through stillbirth almost two and a half years ago. Thankfully, I'm not a TV person so I'm not really bombarded by Mother’s Day advertisements and whatnot, but reading magazines, newspapers, online news, etc is still very difficult.

    We kept our day pretty full yesterday. We shopped at our local ...

    It's already halfway through the month???? I am happy to report although I did not complete the 100% raw challenge that I am still doing a good job with doing "mostly" raw. I am glad that I am still incorporating salads and fruits and veggies into my daily diet because I do feel so much better. Instead of going wild with beef and chicken (since I have decided to not do 100% raw), for meat I am opting for wild-caught salmon and tuna, which I break up and put into my everyday ...

    well it's mother's day, the night before i plan on starting the raw diet...course i need to transition, cause i'm nursing...so my plan for this next week is to add some things: 32 oz. green smoothie, carrot/spinach juice, and fruit for dinner...so that means my lunch will stay the same. Oh also, only fruit/veggies for snacks. We'll see how it goes!
