the REFLECTION i received was that i seem more connected to myself. calmer, quieter, deeper. that sounds good to me...it is how i want to feel and be.
i want to show you my amazing lunch from yesterday:
As far as cooked food cravings go, i am realizing that i love the SMELL of cooked food!! oh, how i love it!! pizza, bagels, mac and cheese....the other day i wondered: WHY does cooked food SMELL so good?? my meditation on this question led me to this conclusion: raw foods contain amazing amounts of nutrition, intact. when we cook the food, it breaks the bonds of the molecules and releases the nutrients in the form of smell!! so when we actually EAT the food, it is LACKING the smell that we smelled, which has now dissipated and landed on the ground somewhere.
Raw food TASTES SO RICH. none of it is lost to the ground. it finds its home inside of us.
love to all!!
where did you get the recipes on any/all of these? :) that sounds good. :)

hey vince!!
ReplyDeletethis is a good link for raw recipes: http://www.fromsadtoraw.com/RawRecipes.htm
and there are SO MANY BOOKS with great recipes. right now we are reading gabriel cousens's book called "rainbow green live-food cuisine" that has some amazing recipes and ideas. you can google raw recipes and find tons.
sarah, my partner, is a food guru and prepares most of the yummy food we eat. left to my own, i tend to eat salads and fruit and feel kind of empty. luckily she prepares pates, desserts...real MEALS!! that is what i want to learn to do. i think she might put a cookbook out one day (or a "uncook" book!!
