Chopstix and Chocolates...

OOOooooOooooo, I’m so excited – I finally worked out how to upload things from the video Mr Monarch made at Raw Spirit Fest, onto YouTube :) YAY :) So, as promised, here is the little snippet of him collecting my ‘Golden Chopstix’ award for being an ‘Up-and-Coming Raw Food Leader’- sweeeeeet ;)


On November the 12th I had:

1 quart water
1.5 cups orange juice
3 cups parsley/chard/celery/arugula/dandelion/sorrel/beet greens/beet/carrot juice (HARSH ;)
2.5 big chunks of watermelon
2 cups water
bowl of soaked currants blended with hemp seeds and swirled with dried mulberries
1 tbsp greener grasses powder
2 cups water
1 mango
bowl of avo mushed with dill hummus and fresh sprouts, served with nori
slices of watermelon and pineapple
2 cups water

Here’s a yummy piece of guidance that popped up recently in my inbox:

“People are lonely because they build walls instead of bridges.
--Joseph Fort Newton

Walls are built to keep people out. To feel less lonely, we need to make a little crawl space to let people in. We don't have to destroy our walls in one day, but perhaps we can let at least one person in. We will learn, one person at a time, what it feels like to be less protected, and less lonely. I can make an opening in my wall of protection and let someone get to know me. I will be safe.”

Mmmmmm, I can so identify with that feeling of building ‘safety walls’ against others in my past…in my case very literally physically manifested too, as a ‘protective’ layer of fat…these daily mailshots of joy from Hazelden.org are so beautiful to me – you can subscribe to them for free HERE.

on November the 13th I had:

1 quart water
1 pint watermelon/pineapple/orange juice
bowl of dried figs blended with hemp and swirled with mulberries
2 cups water
handful of cherries and half a mango
1 pint of celery/carrot/beet/parsley/spinach/ginger juice
1 mango
green smoothie of durian/banana/mango/lettuce, swirled with mulberries
1 quart water
