I just got home from the Raw and Living Spirit Retreat, and after sitting through several workshops, and talking to various 'experts', I feel a lot more comfortable with giving in to my fruit...

Red haired, freckles, blue eyes.. yup, I'm part of this group.
Sunscreens never helped, back when I used them. I grew up in So. California, and spent most summers burnt to a crisp.
Then, I found...

Is anyone else going? I'll be there :p

Just to clarify, it's "empirical" research/evidence. Means observation, experimentation, or experience. Wiki Empirical.

Kitchen Aid.
I think the quality is actually the same, the FP is more durable, customer service is better, and the price is a lot less than Cuisinart.

I got the 12-cup FP, and I love it.

Hi markmic!

I think any joint pain benefits greatly from antioxidents... I personally use astaxanthin, which is a suppliment that I get from vitacost (google it at naturalnews.com)

I would...

And, the great thing about the Red Star nutritional yeast flakes, is they are usually the 'vegetarian suppliment' NY that has B12 in it! :)

Gotta love the B12! :p

I've been buying the Costco figs... not as good as the ones I pick up at the local veggie/fruit stand, but I can't always get them there.
Just don't try to eat that hard little stem end on them......

I've been taking MSM for over 2 months now (powder, dissolved in water), and my nails are NOT wonderful. I'm really hoping that I'll see some benefit from drinking MSM water.
I also take horsetail...

We've been enjoying watermelon blended with ice. Nothing else, just watermelon and ice! :p

Me too.

I try to make the corn chips in the dehydrator 'do it' for me on this, but they don't, not really... avoidance just works best, I'm afraid.

Aleesha. Michigan is smart, too.

If I had money for new knives, I think I would try a ceramic knife! :)

Whatever you get, make sure the tang goes the length of the grip. I prefer a wood grip on mine.

I'm a bit newer than that, but welcome back!

I'm waiting on my body to finish doing whatever it is doing 'behind the scenes' so it will get back to weight loss mode. I'm sitting here, feeling like...

Point 1: Raw jungle peanuts are not the same as the peanuts grown in the US for peanut butter. I don't think that the aflatoxin is an issue with them.

Point 2: David Wolfe is not an idiot. He's a...

My new kitchen aid 12-cup food processor!

It is AMAZING! Just this evening, I made this fabulous 'chopped salad' thing that I've been doing for the past couple of weeks... throw a bunch of veggies...

Artisana coconut butter is a mixture of oil and ground coconut flesh.

I use coconut oil on my skin, my face, and for 'other' uses, as needed.

I have been using coconut oil, almost exclusively,...

Sweet potato chips... this time, marinated it water, Bragg's, and some vegan Worchestershire sauce, then sprinkled thickly with garlic powder.

"Sun dried" assures that the temperature hasn't been as high as it is for 'normal' dehydrated items... so, it is still raw.

You can dry your own tomato halves in the dehydrator, of course, just...

That's funny, I just looked at it, and it still says "raw"..

Yesterday:
Breakfast: Green smoothie of banana/spinach/frozen blueberries, with chlorella added
Snacks: apricots, nectarines, grapes, banana, figs
Late meal: Chopped salad, of lettuce from the...

Ah, a Brit! :)

Welcome to RFT! glad to have you here :p

More greens - less nuts.

We grow greens in our little garden. I can't quite keep up with them!

Using sunflower seeds instead of more expensive nuts in some recipes helps, too. Like 'cheeze'...

I second the grapes idea. We usually munch through a bag of grapes with a movie in the evenings. I just 'save' that fruit serving until then!
