  1. Day 8

    6:00am
    Today marks week 2 of 100% RAW. It's hard to believe how much easier it's been staying 100% this time (knock on wood). Spending the time watching the DVD and making a lot of Alissa's recipes right off the bat has spurred both my confidence and inspiration.

    Approx. 1 1/2 cup soaked walnuts, cashews, and pine nuts
    1 pear, peeled, cored, and chopped
    1/3 cup maple syrup
