Experimenting, & Art is all there is.

one of the most scrumptious salads I have ever eaten!


lettuce (I forget what it is named), baby spinach, cantaloupe, kiwi, raw 'fried' yellow onions, large cherry tomatoes(local), mustard dressing and a healthy grind of black pepper. I ate a massive bowl full, amazingly sensational!


cookies in the dehydrator. I sampled them and they taste close to date squares. I wasn't thinking to do such a thing. 'Gifts Always Happen'


raw chocolate sauce- I like the play of light as is caught in the camera lens reflected off the whisking whisk--the light looks like a hand with all 4 fingers and a thumb. Art is all there is.


I am not a fan of 'super foods' and do not eat chocolate as a super food. Once in a while I wish to eat it or serve it to others. So from Mimi Kirk's raw food recipe book, I made chocolate sauce, this evening. Very easy to make, takes little time. In the freezer are 6 chocolate tarts with walnuts and goji berries, to be ready for tomorrow.

When I think of cooked food now, which is rare, and prompted by pictures triggering taste memories, I don't even begin to try and talk myself into it. I lose interest in it real quickly. In fact my mind fills up with images of mushed unappealing looking dead stuff when thinking about eating cooked foods, now. My mind will automatic rewrite without prompting, to keep up to date with my sound changes. Cooked food is as different to raw living food as bottled baby food is, compared to feeding a baby straight from the dinner table.
However, if I still wish to eat anything cooked, I will if I really want to. Gentle change in which I embrace and love myself wholly, works well.

My blog served its purpose well and it only took a little over 2 years, with this summer running grand finale in the open. I will continue to share what I find delicious, exciting, new and interesting. This blog is not over yet!

first of the zucchini from my garden! :)


AM 20 oz water

tall glass of veggie fruit juice, carrot, kale, gala apple and granny apple, cucumber, broccoli, celery, mixed with almond milk

2:00 PM at the market I picked up 2 spring rolls filled with different kinds of sprouts and wrapped in thin rice paper. A sauce accompanied which had a bit of wheat in it. My energy went down after eating one and I refrigerated the other one and made a matcha tea which I drank with the last blackberry tart.

5:00 PM blueberries with almond cream and honey, in a cup, and I ate two cups full.



7:16 PN linguini with mariana sauce, almond cheese, 'fried onions' which is fantastic and tastes superior to the best cooked onion ever(!)(the raw fried onionrecipe by Irini. Irini has an amazing flare with food! I look forward to when she has a book published), salad with a chive flower and red pepper.



7:59 PM some pecans, walnuts and red raspberry leaf tea.

Tonight I prepared Kale for chips and veggie chips earlier in the day; both are dehydrating overnight.

I love homemade nut cheese, and they are so easy to make!

This morning I woke with a headache. It is not a good idea to eat as much as I did last night and the mixture of food that I ate, before bed. For years I followed the natural hygienic way of eating- their way of food combining and I found that highly beneficial. My eating last night was not in cahoots with natural hygienists, nor was it compatible with my digestive system. (headache was mild and didn't last long)

AM 20 oz of water, 1/2 a dozen veggie chips fresh from the dehydrator

4:33 PM zucchini lingini, almond cheese, salad of green beans, cucumber, lettuce, gr. onion



6:00 PM blueberries with almond mild - 2 bowls full

6:58 PM a sprinkling of pecans

8:30 PM a bliss ball and raspberry tea

(earlier in the day I was not hungry thus the gap from morning until 4:33 PM. I made up for it in the evening!)

10:00 PM 1/2 dozen veggie chips with almond cheese. The cheese made of almonds, probiotics, sun dried tomatoes, garlic, and olives, is superb(!), as are the chips!



10:10 PM mejool dates with sesame tahini and blueberries

and morph it is!

AM 20 oz water and warm matcha tea

Soaking up vitamin D day.

2:48 PM Basil leaves fresh harvested, tomato, green beans fresh harvested, raw dill pickle(Bubbies), sesame tahini mixed with olive oil and stone ground mustard. It was an extremely filling dish!


7:34 PM home after picking 3 quarts of blueberries, 6 quarts of blackberries- I was very hungry


8:00 PM a quick pick me upper called icy blackraspberry juice which I prepared as I snacked on a few blueberries-- fresh from the plant and sunshine food!


9:00 PM munching a few crackers while I prepared the mariana sauce, and sun dried tomato/garlic/black pepper almond cheese which is overnight in the dehydrator


9:35 PM pasta- zucchini and sea vegetable linguini covered in the mariana sauce


following that: the chia pudding that was mixed with almond milk, honey, cinnamon, lucuma pwd., blueberries and blackberries


So, tonight it felt like I have morphed with respect to my blog. This blog has been useful for me to discover aspects of myself and to share my menus as I change with raw/living foods. I won't have a focus on posting daily menus now yet am undecided how to continue the blog from now on. Tomorrow may bring me more of a sense of where I want to go with blogging.

Let Your Life Morph

AM water 20 oz plus; pecans

12:40 PM matcha tea made with almond milk, vanilla flavouring, coconut crystals, matcha pwd, hemp seeds-- an experiment and it is down right yum go wild with taste satisfaction

I just noticed deer must have jumped up onto the deck. Two sunflowers have been eaten and the beautiful yellow flowers as well. The sunflowers I thought, were for the birds. The pretty flowers I thought were for the bees. So I thought, so I thought, so I thought.

more to add on Thursday-- hmmmm I misplaced the paper I jotted down the days eating activity on. When and if I find it I will fill in the gap here. until then, on to September 8th!

Inspired

This morning I woke with mercury healing happening again. The times between these experiences are much further apart now. This time it was further up my body, once again. It was in mid chest and drew a lot from my lungs as well. A self-energy treatment helped a lot. It felt like a small vice in me pushing and drawing and there was quite a bit of discomfort.

9:49 AM grapefruit walnuts/pecans




11:46 AM mango, a little bit only since I determined it fermenting and turning bad.

12:12 PM I made an icy cantaloupe drink, whole cantaloupe with added phytogreens pwd.

2:11 grapefruit chips with sesame tahini




3:26 PM small bowl of blackberries in almond milk

4:00ish PM matcha tea and a small chocolate goji berry brownie from Bliss Cafe. I don't really like to do chocolate and I felt myself get a buzz with the first bite! It is 2:18 AM as I type this up and I am still going strong!

8:56 PM mejool dates and sesame tahini

after 1:00 AM a blackberry tart

I can't believe what I ate today. Where are the veggies?? After the brownie I wanted sweet yet my thoughts went to veggie juice of smoothie predominantly veggie, and I decided I didn't want to stop what I was doing in order to prepare one of them. It was easy to grab what I did grab.

I broke my vacuum cleaner tonight while vacuuming after 1:00 AM. I am pretty sure a Q-tip was sucked up. The machine immediately sounded different, somewhat stressed. Then suddenly it went nuts. I thought it would explode into fire and I shut it off and it wouldn't stop for a few seconds. Cripes. It is outside on the back porch now. Dern it, I think it is dead.

my first sunflower this year has come to blooming, isn't it ever so pretty!
