My lovely lovely mother came over today. She brought her camera to take my before pics, because my camera doesn't work. I'm not posting those pics yet, waitng for a good after pic!!!! We were also supposed to take a green mustache photo, but my green juice wasn't sticky enough, so you can't see the colour on my lip at all. The pic would've been cool, too! I'm holding my little ferret, Roxy, up to my face, and she's trying to lick off the juice! Anyway, looks like I won't enter this contest. Can'… Continue

Turns out she has read many articles on the subject lately and also a book (forgot to ask which one...) so she's totally… Continue

Around lunch time yesterday I got the things I ordered from David Wolfe's website, which is really exciting. It was so fast, too! I had ordered on thursday, so not counting the weekend, that's 2 days! Cool, good to know for next time I order. But, being in Canada, shipping and border costs were high... gotta find a source from Canada!

SO, what I got was the Lose Weight Gain Fun package. I have cocunut oil, maca powder, MSM powder, raw chocolate, yacon root syrup. Can't wait to make a great big… Continue

So, yesterday was a bit disappointing... Before going to bed I had prepared 2 recipes to dehydrate overnight. One was jalapeno corn chips from goneraw.com, but I spread them too thin, so they never got really good... That was sad, I had such high hopes!!! I ended up rolling them around guacamole and eating them mini-burrito style! The other was "fried" mushrooms, a recipe from Karen Knowler:
