  1. 30 Day Challenge Prep

    I ate all almost all raw today! It just kind of happened... I've been working my way up to it all week, not so much deliberately as intuitively, and now that I have a full day under my belt, I feel soooooo great! I have missed this healthy life. I used to eat 100% raw in my mid-late twenties, and then I totally fell off that wagon.

  2. Hangin' in there

    I've made Stuffed Portabella Mushrooms for the past two days. They tasted a lot like Collard Rolls to me yesterday. Today I left out the onions, and liked it better. I added the Alfalfa Sprouts as suggested. I put a lot of them on there. I made Kale Salad today. Another recipe I got from Ebony. Very good. Posted it under Recipes.

  3. Thanks

    Thank you everyone for your comments!

    Today I did 15 minutes of power yoga.....the dvd is 60 minutes long. I can't believe how out of shape I am but I guess you have to start somewhere.

  5. Yay, I'm a Sprout!

    Coolness! I've graduated!

    StarFire: I hope you're recooperating well from your accident, sweetie. Yeah, I'm a pretty tough critic when it comes to my raw food and those Carrot-Pecan Burgers are very tasty! You should definitely try them. They're very easy to make and only have to stay in the dehydrator 7-8 hours (even less time depending on how thick you make them). Yummo
