  1. I must be CRAZY

    Today I woke up very nervous. I dreamt all night about the "dangers of eating raw" that I read about on the internet the night before. When I awakened I was VERY hungry and confused.

Then I realized that was probably the years and years of conditioning and brainwashing talking, and so I talked to my extremely wise husband about it.

I am re-reading Alissa's book AGAIN because I need to understand everything. Dehydrated food does nothing for me. I need to stick to simple, simple, simple. Salads, soups, maybe some of the flax cracker recipes, smoothies...this is ...

    Well... my husband dropped out -- but I'm still goin strong!! He couldn't take 100% raw - but he's still about 85% raw. He still supports me so that's a good thing!
