Tuesday morning when I got off work, my feet hurt so bad I limped all the way to the car. I decided then that I had had enough! So, yesterday was my first day of "going raw". I'll be eating as much raw food as possible. There are some things I won't eat raw, but are still good for me, so I'll have some cooked foods. I'll be posting here samples of what I am eating.
I'd like to thank my big brother, John, for the blender he gave me 15 years ago that is helping make this possible.
Chocolate Covered Blueberry Smoothie
1 cup frozen, local blueberries
1/4 cup raw cocoa
1 cup Silk Almond milk, Dark Chocolate
----------
Pumpkin Macadamia Nut Cream
1 cup Kentwood Spring water
1/2 cup raw Macadamia Nuts
1 tsp chia seeds
3 Tbsp Pumpkin Butter
Soak nuts and chia in water in the blender for an hour or so. Blend well. Add Pumpkin Butter and blend again. Put in bowl and let rest for 10 minutes. Eat with a spoon.

Baby Greens and a Roma Tomatoe with Ranch Dressing
----------
Fingerling Potatoes, handful dried mint from my plants, some dried parsley, 3 tsp dried tarragon, a few shakes dried kelp. Boil until soft. Put in blender, including the boil water. Blend until creamy. I found it interesting, and Little Monkey loved it.
