I'd love to meet up sometime when you come by!

A couple of hours, I think. :(

We have a ton of apples, pears, blackberries, squash, etc. (all organic) and I would love to share, as well as meet others in the area interested in preparing food together or just providing local...

We're in the process of renovating our kitchen as well. We are working with a friend who is a cabinet maker and designing everything from scratch. Here are the ideas that we are incorporating:
...

Those are GREAT suggestions, thanks so much! If you're anywhere in northern California, you're welcome to come and get some. :)

We have all these heirloom varieties, including grafts from...

We have a small orchard of plum and apple trees. Does anyone have any suggestions for the best way to freeze them (or otherwise make use of a massive quantity of plums or apples)? I've read on here...

Instead of rice, you can also put parsnips and pine nuts in a food processor, and it makes a fantastic rice.

What a dangerous thread to view before dinner! I had a super simple creamy dressing a couple of months ago: I add banana to some apple cider vinegar and touch of olive oil, blend it up and add some...

I get my greens through making a fruit shake and them putting baby spinach in it. You can't taste it, and even though my body often is not "craving" this, I always feel so much better after drinking...

That's great! Where are you located? If you were in northern California, I'd switch to her. I've never had a doctor like that before.

It is always really a struggle, at least it was for me with my daughter as well. For the first four years of her life, I raised her vegan with no sugar and no processed foods. Relatives and others...

I know this is an old post, but what the heck. We live in the SF Bay Area. We have a house in Berkeley, which is great, because we love the culture and the politics and being so close to so many...

The corn tortillas work great in the dehydrator and are fantastic, becuase you can wrap anythingin them! So far, everything I've made from Alissa's book has been excellent.

Do mosquitos stop biting if you've been raw for a certain period of time? Boy, would that be nice. It always seems like they zero straight for me!

Daisyduke,

16.9% is really good! The most attractive women I know are all in the 16-20% fat range, so I don't know if you really do want to be in the teens? It sounds like you have the...

It sounds like your husband might be upset about the idea coming from your ex, more than the diet itself. Let's face it: it is a pretty radical change from SAD, so maybe he's threatened by thinking...

Well, if cost is no object, I've heard you can call up French Laundry and they will do a raw tasting menu with a few days of notice. But I'm not aware of anything else at this point. If you become...

I live in Berkeley, so you are welcome to pick my brain on raw and vegan resources around the SF area. We are not as well stocked with raw as southern California, but it's still pretty good. Here...

Thanks so much for advice from both of you!

At someone else's suggestion on this board, I use Cascadian Farms, which is organic and flash frozen. I keep strawberries, raspberries and cherries stockpiled in my freezer and only use them when I...

I don't have bags under my eyes, and my skin has never looked better since being on raw (it's almost as though any fine line wrinkles are just smoothing themselves out), but I do have rings under my...

Wow, thank you! I was wondering. It doesn't sound like they even blanch their veggies then? Unless I misunderstood the first part of that freezing process.

I've been vegetarian most of my life, so I didn't have any health issues prompting me. (In fact, most of my friends and family thought I was crazy to try to be healthier.) I first found out about...

Thanks for all the tips, RP! Which bamix do you have? The gastro, deluxe or just regular? I hadn't heard of them before, but they look great. I'm going to miss my dehydrator... I have been...

Thanks very much! I guess it will be mostly supermarkets and health food stores (I've got no kitchen access while I'm there, so it'll all be raw in the purest sense.)
