    Raw Food Christmas Songs ;)

    Ding dong merrily on high... :)

    OoOoooooo, yes, it's that time of year again when the Christmas/Holiday tunes are blasting from all directions...personally I love a bit of carol-ing...I thought it might be fun here to share five of my favourite Christmas-time toooooons online...the first two are the Christmas songs I personally put up on YouTube the last two years - these are raw food versions of well-known yuletide songs...then there are three videos of people singing beautiful and inspiring renditions of traditional X-mas songs - ENJOY :)

    "Do They Know About Raw Food?" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5rtPZ9dEz8

    "The 12 Raw Days Of Christmas" -

    Allison Crowe (one of my *favourite* singers - check her out ;) - "The First Noel" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=neWPmsn2E4w

    Celtic Women - "O Come All Ye Faithful" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eLDvM7eSq0

    "Hallelujah" performed by The Opera Company of Philadelphia, in Macy's ;) LOVE it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wp_RHnQ-jgU

    ENJOY :)



    On December the 15th it was a travelling day for me and I enjoyed:

    1 quart water
    cup of orange juice
    1 quart greeeeeeeeeeeeen juice mixed with pineapple juice
    handful of cherries and a handful of strawberries - YUM :)
    bowl of papaya/mango/red banana with coconut yoghurt, ashwagandha, astragalus, maca, stevia, carob
    handful of spiurlina coconut chips
    mug of horchata tea
    1 cup water


    As you may notice in these food logs, I often share a 'cucumber salad' meal with Mr. M these days...perhaps 3 or so days a week...recently some of you have been asking what is IN this salad? Mr. M actually did a video a while back showing how to make this meal - some of you may have missed that though, so HERE is the link again on YouTube to check it out - it is *super*-simple: basically grated cucumber, dulse seaweed and avocado...I also like to add some sauerkraut to mine - Mr. M isn't so into the kraut though ;) ...and in case you also missed the video where we showed how to make the meal with papaya/coconut yoghurt/carob etc that I tend to eat daily at the moment, that video is HERE - enjoy ;)


    on December the 16th I loved:

    1 quart water
