Noodles, anyone?

September 4, 2009

This morning I had the pleasure of taking a yoga class from one of my favorite yoginis and dear friends. Annette is a wonderful massage therapist and yoga instructor, and was subbing this morning’s Yoga Grooves class. She never fails to take me deeper into my practice and self, and I’m so grateful that I [...]

Play With Your Food

July 1, 2009

The sky is falling down on Tampa today…

I’m all for rainy days, but seriously weatherman, it’s getting old. Can we please have some sunshine? Ok, thanks!
 
My alarm went off bright and early this morning at 7:15. I, of course, heard it 30 minutes later, hopped out of bed and hurried to get ready before canoeing [...]

Raw Pizza and OTM

then added some raw marinara sauce (sun-dried tomatoes, fresh tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, fresh basil and parsley),

and some yellow squash and portabella mushrooms.

I [...]

Cookie Monster

June 4, 2009

The adventures in dehydrator “cooking” continued yesterday with a batch of raw chocolate chip cookies using a recipe from Living on Live Food by Alissa Cohen.
 
After getting the batter on to the tray, I had a hard time putting the “chocolate chips” on because it was just as loose as the cookie batter. The first [...]

Raw Wednesday; The Sequel

June 3, 2009

I have to admit that I was slightly sad when the Raw Wednesday Challenge was over! It was great to have a reason to try a new raw recipe every week. I think I needed the “deadline” of every Wednesday, ya know? Otherwise I would just keep saying “Oh, I’ll get to it.”
 
Well, I dubbed [...]

No Vegetable Is Safe

May 28, 2009

Remember the other day when I renounced my love for Green Smoothies? Well, I take it back.

I woke up craving one. This time though I added a scoop of vanilla whey protein to make sure the flavor was right on. And it was. Also in the mix: 1 frozen banana, 1/2 cup [...]

Good Company

May 27, 2009

Today I had lunch with the epitome of joy and gratitude…

That would be my Dad’s Mom, who we call “Nana.”  She is just a big ball of love. Big is clearly a figure of speech, as I’m 5’2 which makes Nana about 4’10 on a good day! Whenever we see her we have to kiss [...]

Why eat your vegetables…

May 23, 2009

…when you can drink them!
 
I’m on quite a green smoothie kick over here these days. It all started bright and early this morning with green smoothie number one. It was really tasty with 1/2 an Ezekiel Cinnamon Raisin English Muffin and raw almond butter.
  
This one had a banana, frozen cherries, light coconut milk, and [...]

A Raw Food Feast

May 21, 2009

I could totally eat raw all day long if every meal was like today’s lunch. Grassroot Restaurant is absolutely delicious. All of their food is so unique, flavorful and extremely satisfying. Who would have thought that raw food could taste so good!
 
I went to lunch with my mom and our friend Debbie. We chatted for [...]

Raw Wednesday Challenge; Smoothie!

May 20, 2009

We have been on a raw food kick over here lately. My mom has jumped on board too and has been un-cooking everything! She made some cucumber-avocado soup yesterday and a raw walnut date torte the other day. It’s all quite delicious!
 
Here’s the torte…

It’s very sweet, actually sweeter than any dessert I [...]
