I decided to re-word my focus for the title of the second smoothies/juice post compared to the first one, The Great Debate: Smoothies vs. Juice because I really do want to take the edge off the debate aspect of this topic. Smoothies and Juice 1. They’re two different things 2. They really shouldn’t be pitted …
Today, since I never got full, I knew I had to eat something really substantial (besides the coconut flour flatbread, egg, pesto, cheese sandwich I had for breakfast!)… I made nut butter. But this is not just any nut butter….it’s Trail Mix Nut Butter Trail Mix Nut Butter Sounds complicated, but is super easy! I …
The debate over whether smoothies or fresh unpasteurized juice is better will never go away—and there are people who feel very passionately one way or the other. I find this interesting, and I also think the debate is much like most nutrition debates. The “right answer” is that neither is better or worse than the …
Today, I have a review to share with you. Over the last 7 years, since I read the book, Naked Chocolate, I have been a great fan of all (unprocessed) things cacao/cocoa. Like most people, I spent most of my life believing that chocolate was an indulgent dessert. It wasn’t until I learned about the …
I was SO busy having fun this weekend that I completely ignored the Internet…how great is that to do once in a while?! Matthew left, I went in the sauna, Joe and I watched a few episodes of Weeds, Mom and I went on a walk, and I’m now procrastinating! This is …

I don’t have very much to say today…but I’m thinking I should gather my thoughts on acid reflux based on all the emails and messages I got after mentioning the aloe remedy for it in my last post! I hope that whoever tries the aloe will let me know how it goes, and what dose …
I’ve always been a fan of dense chewy freezable (but eatable right out of the freezer) macaroons and truffles…. In the past, I always made the standard raw food community blond and chocolate macs, but I just reviewed that old recipe and discovered that it has an entire cup of maple syrup in it. In …
In regards to feeling good, I’m one of those people who will continue to experiment until I feel the best I could possibly feel. Or till I die, whichever comes first. I didn’t realize that I felt crappy for the first 24 (or so years of my life) until I started to feel better. I …

I’ve been really busy playing outside for the last few days—it’s not every spring that the sun shines in March in New York state! Walking…playing, and just sitting. There’s this feeling like I have to soak it all in, just in case it goes away. I have more photos from today, but my …
