Hi Bunny,
What a cool experience. I am sorry about the car wreck, my car was totalled twice last year since God wanted me to drive a more eco friendly vehicle & I was a slow learner. I always think it is amazing when we are occupying the same spac...
Yes, we even take recyclables out of the garbage cans and take them home to recycle, I am kind of OCD on recycling but at least it is a healthy habit, right? I was hired to head up a recycling team at Raw Spirit Fest last yr and this yr I will do ...
Yep, I am guilty altho now that I am almost purely Raw Freegan I don't eat them unless I find them which I haven't so far. As with any quick bar I will eat like 4 at a time so I have to be careful...You know, darned emotional compulsive eating hab...
Mary, Let me know if you ever want a partner in crime. I live in Boston and I'd be willing to explore this, though not alone.

And always leave places cleaner than they were before you got there, plus always be courteous and leave as asked without complaining....Just a few hints..Peace, G

- Holy Shit!!!! You freaking rock out girl. I am so happy for you. And... you do carry the raw glow. I was so happy to see how you and Karen were smiling and happy to help throughout the whole event. What a wonderful example. Thank you for your beautiful presence.

Wendi Dee said… - I'm doing great, thanks! I also went down a few pounds since the festival. I think I was holding on to weight because I had never released stored emotions and painful things from the past. I feel so much more aligned within myself now, and I think the extra weight is going to just melt away. I feel alive and beautiful after that weekend!
Lots of love to you!
Wendi

- Hi Risa,
Had such a BLAST~Got home last night and passed out until tonight. Had such an incredibly moving Eco Conscious Healthy Loving Time! I cannot even express the catalyst this is for me. I am doing more of the 80 10 10 plan which seems much healthier and I lost about 6 pounds after going about 90% Raw last Monday, WOW! I am back with a vengeance. See you at Karen's on Sunday?? Yes, it was fun to meet so many amazing people, including Bunny. She was so sweet. I mostly hung out with Karen Butterfly and our Hippy Eco Conscious Recycling Crew which was SO fun!! Congrats on Being FULL ON Raw!! WHoo Hoo!!! It feels so much better than eating the junk I used to eat and my mind set is changing,. I bet yours is, too. Peace, Gill
When I was in a HUGE used Bookstore, Powell's, in Portland a few wks ago I was sitting in the Raw foods section and people were asking ME questions...I loved it! It seems like it is getting trendy, too, but at least that means it will be easier to be Raw ...Hahaha..I know that cause my mom took her friend to D & K's for her Bday when I was in Sedona so it must be the "In Thing" LOL

Risa said… - GILLY DOLL! I saw your picture with Bunny at the Raw Food Festival. How cool to see you on here!
Hope you are having a great time. You look very happy. I'm 100% raw for 15 days now (woo hooo) so I'm excited.
I will see you when you get back -- or maybe you're already back.
xxoo

Rerun, MY favorite: from the Blog http://walkslowlylivewildly.com/2007/08/31/dumpster-diving/Share
What would Jesus say about dumpster diving?
I think he would hold weekly dumpster diving parties. He would be right there inside the dumpster with everyone else…exclaiming words of joy when he finds a sealed box of bread or a bright shining apple. He would take the food and feed those in the neighborhood…and then go fight for better processes when it comes to food waste!
I think one of the biggest reasons for people throwing things away, wasting food, etc. is pure laziness. I am just as guilty… Continue

Thoughts on Day 4
Tonight was A Full On Diving Night. First off I saw the older gentleman who dives at the Big D store near my work who gave me roses before. He was driving away as I pulled up, but in the good spirit of community he waved at me. Then I found Lots of organic produce. It is nice now if things start getting wilted at home I compost them and just grab a new one next time I go diving...I NEVER have to buy most produce ever again, Wow!
Then a guy in a suit in the car next to me flashed me a peace sign… Continue

I said I would head home directly from work tonight but I couldn't resist a quick dive or two...
I quickly stopped at 2 Big D bins, dove in and found Many Many 100% Pomegranate juices, organic baby green salad and some tulip bulbs...in under 15 minutes got over $75 worth of stuff, Yay! Still got home on time & walked our boy before Mark came back from the mechanic. Of course, Evader Jose's door was open so I couldn't make a peek in their bin. At home, watched a movie, The Wrestler, about a washed up performance artist/deadbeat dad and my emotions came to a head re: my own deadbeat dad,… Continue
