I want to thank everyone who has participated in this RawFoodTalk.com forum. There have been some amazing exchanges here and so many words of wisdom spoken. But its time for me to close this board. I am moving on to new ventures and feel that its time for me to let this go. A forum of this size takes loads of money, time and energy. I have not been keeping up with the forum upgrades, the spam problems, etc…. which is resulting in many disgruntled emails and people calling the office daily. I’m sorry to disappoint the many of you who have spent your time and wonderful words of help and inspiration here. I hope that you have all benefited from this board and that it has helped you on your path to optimal health. I know many of you have made lasting friendships here as well. I will leave this board up for a month of so, so that you may copy what you need and any information you would like to save.

Thank you for being part of the RawFoodTalk.com community! It’s been a wonderful ride! I’m looking forward to seeing what’s next for all of you and of course, you can keep up with my adventures through my blog, Facebook and twitter. I am continuing my certification trainings and there will be some exciting new classes, events and projects coming into fruition in the near future!

All my best,
Alissa

Oh yeah baby, I feel thinner already!!!!!!!
been totally raw now for what, 18 hours

ok, to clarify - the kitten pic is not directed to the forum but to the people i will be seeing at this wedding next sunday :)

All morning I have been working on a block of recipes that may be boot camp friendly
…and as a result I am motivated to try out a recipe for a California roll utilizing jicama as the rice base. I have some raw nori sheets I bought off Alissa's store to break into… I also have carrot cuke & celery… I have alfalfa sprouts for garnish.
The only thing I am thinking may be needed but has too much sweetness is the teriyaki sauce (shoyu & honey) to drizzle over top…. Poor lil tigger.
I guess a savory sauce would work… shoyu, scallion ginger (white wine?) …or water if that’s a no-no. hmmm.

I have picked out my jewelry for the new dress. On our 25th dh got me some black pearls… that’ll do quite nicely
they aren’t actually true black, but a deep gray with shimmers of green, blue & pink. Beeautiful!

I am feeling the pressure mount, my rawbie friends are ganging up on me to get a pic of me in the dress, eek! But u never know… I’ve posted me before and now with rjl being super brave & putting in her before pics- how can I refuse??? (geez, thanks a LOT rjl!) jk.

I read a bunch last nite in all my new purchases from barnes & nobles. I usually get things cheaper from amazon… but there is something to be said for instant gratification & not waiting for the postal delivery. I guess I am spoiled. I need to tighten the $$belt, but every now and again I spree like that.
You may be wondering why my grammer/spelling suddenly got better… well I am writing this off line in Word which corrects me left & right with either outright fixing my mistakes or putting squiggly red or green lines under the glaring offenses. What is really funny is when the program is so perplexed it tells me ‘that’s wrong’ but can’t even come up with any suggestions Uh huh, my bad.

Well it’s raining again up here, so no photography today.

I have the whole day off today and my house is screaming for me to clean it.
I just turned my ‘whisper 2000’ off. I can’t heeeear you.
Well maybe I should at least get dressed, that would be a good start.
I’ll get back to this later if there is anything momentous to report.

Later rawbie-doobie-doo’s

Snow, I usually use wheat free tamari, scallions, grated ginger, garlic, sesame seeds and honey (and sometimes red pepper flakes and peanut butter if I'm feeling naughty). Makes an awesome dip for said nori rolls!
Oh, and sometimes a hint of lime juice.

Enjoy!!!

Snow! If I pay you, will you send me some of those sushi rolls???? Outstanding! I've thought about using sprouted quinoa ~ it's remarkably similar to rice. Anyway ~ keep us posted, you are RAWSOME!
