CO2 = 1 part carbon, 2 parts oxygen

lol.... sounds like my first go of them. I buy them and let them sit for a week or 2 when they are starting to turn black around the stem. Then they are soft, and sweet and just the right size for a...

Hi Sport,

No, I'm not suggesting that at all. I use bottled aloe in my smoothies sometimes. I've haven't eaten fresh since I killed my last plant though.....

Did you click on the aloe link and...

I store the bulk of nuts in the freezer. I only keep a small amount out to use daily.



They will keep better in the fridge. Pull ou what you will eat in a day and heat in the dehydrator[/quote]...

Luckitri, most people have no idea that dieffenbachias are poisonous. People assume that if it's being sold in a mainstream greenhouse, that the plants are safe.

Here's one list of houseplants...

Dear, I'm sorry I didn't pick up on the facetiousness of that.... my motherly instinct just kicks in when I detect potential danger. Some of the people I encountered in the greenhouse were just so...

I got to thinking about this while I was sorting artwork and and felt like maybe I came off sounding a little flip... I'm not trying to be a smart butt here, but it really DOES floor me that you...

That means a chemical made to taste like a grape. If it were real grape juice, it would state so. I recommend reading Fast Food Nation to get the skinny on the chemical companies and their relation...

Alright, I guess you know more than the horticulturists in the world.

You can chew on them if you want to, but when I worked in a plant nursery, we kept the bromeliads on a table out of the reach...

I looked at them in the store. And then walked away to the organic apple section.

You might want to try Google-ing something like that before you just eat it. The sap from the leaves IS considered poisonous.

:o eh, I'm not 100% either.... I have the utmost respect for those who have made that commitment, though, and I certainly would never purposefully discourage anyone from aspiring for that. Maybe I...

Just got a reply back from the folks at Stahlbush... that was fast!



Yay! I am happy I know now!

Hmm, I dunno. Our hfs started carrying the frozen "pure" acai juice which is wonderful for our smoothies.

I think I would lean towards the powder if I were ordering....

Ahhhh.... OK, I wzasn't sure about the context. yeah, those defrosted mushy things are ick.

We won't buy any non-organic strawberries as they are full of pesticides, so currently we're purchasing...

We go to the desert once a year to camp and vend off and on in the summer, which is challenging with raw foods. We've learned how to make a "deep freeze" from an Extreme cooler, so we are able to...

I could be totally wrong, but from what I've read and canned/frozen, fruit really doesn't need to be blanched to be frozen. Most fruits are too delicate and it would break them down. I think I'll...

I broke down and had an Excedrin one afternoon while trying to deal with orders and customers, but I've managed to just work through the rest of the headaches.... they are not as frequent and not as...

Domestic Goddess is right... that is a fabulous idea!

I would imagine they are blanched before they are frozen, but the only way to know for sure is to ask.

I know you aren't criticizing anyone, but that sounded incredibly condescending.

Willing to admit my ways aren't fulfilling as I would like? How about if I just like to have a cup of coffee every...

I've read all the arguments for and against coffee, and quite frankly, the studies that say there ARE health benefits from moderate cofffee consumption far outweigh those arguments against.

Carbon dioxide is 2 parts oxygen and one part carbon.

I was looking at a tincture press last night ($675) that I thought would be ideal if youu were hardcore into growing your own herbs and wanted to make cold-pressed tinctures from them. Then you could...

OK, thanks Lucy! That's a good enough answer for me. I can't even stand the taste of sodas any more. I quit drinking those years ago.

:D
