Last week a lot of people were making a big thing out of IHOP’s Pancake Day. Many of my friends from high school talked about getting free pancakes and dousing them with sugary sweet syrup. A lot of the follow up comments said things like “It’s time for a nap!” or “Suffering from a sugar [...]

People ask me all the time what kitchen gadget I think they should get first when starting on a raw and living food diet. I get asked this question a lot by people who are just interested in improving their health, too. The options they normally give me are: 1) A Juicer 2) A Dehydrator [...]

I just love goji berries. I didn’t at first, and it wasn’t because I didn’t like the taste, it was always a texture thing for me. I never knew how wonderful goji berries could be because every bag of them that I bought the berries were rock hard and chewy (in a bad way) like [...]

Cafe Gratitude, an amazing vegan/raw food chain mainly based in North California, is closing all of their Northern California locations.

Last week I plowed my way through a whopping 14 new recipes from Alissa Cohen’s Raw Food for Everyone. 14 recipes is quite a lot, so I guess I should get straight to the point: what did I make and how did it turn out?

Somehow, I’m not really sure how, my week numbers got all messed up again. If I were still planning to finish up all of the recipes from Alissa Cohen’s Raw Food for Everyone on December 1st, last week would have been my 42nd week working on this project, so that’s the number I’m going to [...]
