My daughter is almost 2 1/2 now which is so hard to believe. I am so thankful that she is thriving and is enjoying her food so much! Her diet is incredible and is at least 80% raw. Her pediatritian reports that she is in the 95% in both height AND weight! That means only 5 children out of 100 who are her age are taller and weigh more. I should also mention that she hasn't been sick in over a year. I know children her age who are constantly sick and coming down with whatever bug is going around. I am so grateful that my family is so healthy....
Peace & Raw Food,
Ananda

Yesterday's Cow?
In town there is a store called "Yesterday's Tree". It always bothered me and I thought it was a horrible name for a business! They obviously sell wooden furniture and such. My husband and
I were talking about it as we passed the storefront and it occured to me that it wasn't such a terrible name after all. I was bothered because it was such a slap-in-the-face reminder that every piece of paper, every bookshelf, etc. was once a tree. Ok, yes, it is obvious, but we easily forget where our modern conveniences come from.
I thought that if the food we eat came with such a clear, obvious reminder....maybe it would be easier to make choices that make a difference in our health and in our world. For instance, if veal was called "yesterday's baby cow" or "yesterday's calf who lived in a room so small it couldn't move so you could eat it's tender body"...just think of that.
Just my thoughts today.

No sleep for you!
Oh, man did I have a hard time opening my eyes this morning! I got about 4 hours of sleep and am still walking around like a zombie-woman. That aside, I had a glorious day yesterday. Not that there were any extraordinary events, but I just felt so friggin joyful all day. I have to admit that I look & feel fab!
I'm working on a website where I will talk about my journey and share recipes and such. I know I need to blog more even tho no one is reading at this point! Haha! I could say anything I want! Of course I am semi-closeted about my lifestyle. Well, I mean I haven't even told one person about this blog. I will tho when I get my site up and running.
I've been using Fitday software religiously. I log in my foods for the day and I can see how I'm doing as far as my nutrient percentages and even an average over time. This is extremely important to me especially since I stopped taking vitamins. Plus, I'm just interested. I want total, complete nutrition from the foods I eat.
Speaking of the food I eat......holy cow have I been making some goooooood stuff! Chocolate Love (tastes like chocolate milk), Vanilla Peach Cheezcake, Nut Cheez, Portabella Sandwiches, Almond Halva, Shake Yer Booty Gazpacho.... YUM!!! Recipes to come!
