Feasting Raw and 'Dumb' Laws... ;)

Awwww, we have such YUMMY news for any of you in the Portland area this weekend...a bunch of lovenuggets up there have decided to host a 'Raw Union Re–Union' meal this Sunday, the 26th of July. Using Solla and Chaya's fabulous recipes from the Raw Union Wedding Recipe E–book, they're going to be hosting a luxurious banquet feast, fit for raw–lty ;) Join the fun and check out the details HERE – apparently they do regular events like this, with different raw food themes – enjoy ;)

...and now for something completely different - how abt a little light entertainment, dear folks? The USA is a biiiggggg ol' land I am noticing, as we travel about all over this continent...I also note that there seem to be some very 'interesting' laws from state to state... The charmingly named site 'DumbLaws.com' lists some of the more 'colourful' laws of this land...here are ten of my favourites from their site - enjoy ;)

Alabama: It is illegal to wear a fake moustache that causes laughter in church.
Arkansas: Alligators may not be kept in bathtubs.
California: Women may not drive in a house coat.
Iowa: One-armed piano players must perform for free.
Minnesota: It is illegal to sleep naked.
Oklahoma: People who make “ugly faces” at dogs may be fined and/or jailed.
Pennsylvania: It it illegal to sleep on top of a refrigerator outdoors.
South Dakota: It is illegal to lie down and fall asleep in a cheese factory.
West Virginia: Whistling underwater is prohibited.
Wyoming: You may not take a picture of a rabbit from January to April without an official permit.

...??? I have no idea about the current validity of any of these laws - I know they get me gigglin' though- enjoy...(and stop making ugly faces at dogs - you've been warned... ;)

Blistering joy,

This special promo is being launched in connection with ‘The Movement to Reverse Diabetes Naturally’ which is holding a special action day on April the 25th, with raw events kicking off globally in support of this movement. You can check out all the details on this site HERE, find local events and even download flyers/posters to let others know about reversing diabetes naturally – I’d love to suggest printing some of these out and renegading them around in YOUR area – leave them in libraries, deliver them to your local diabetes clinic or doctor’s office, slip them between packaged foods on supermarket shelves, post them up on noticeboards – let’s spread the healthy message, community ;)

Get in on all the special offer action HERE :)

on April the 12th I had:

mug of vanilla/hazelnut tea

Two Techie Things...

*Mr. M is on the search for a yummy graphic designer who can quickly, efficiently and professionally rustle up a handful of attractive banner ads for The Raw Food World store...does that sound like a fun activity for YOU? ;) If so, please feel free to connect with him HERE and maybe we'll all get to enjoy your artwork sooooon...

*A HUGE Thank You too, to all of you who have been writing in to let us know you've been having issues accessing the main RawReform.com site, which has been bringing up some bizarre 'attack site' messages the last couple of days... Mmmmm, yes, we know abt this issue, thanks and we're working diligently on it now - apparently it's a really 'fierce' virus that is coming out of the UK and the east of Europe at the moment and infecting websites all over the world - :(
Our web wizards are working on it and will have things straightened back out asap, all being well... One bonus is that it seems the main problem is with Google/Firefox's interpretation of the site right now - the site can actually still be viewed just fine in other browsers - e.g. Internet Explorer - we will be asking the Goddess of Google to review the site again soon and hopefully it will all be cleared up after that... ;)
Thanks again for all the messages, support and concern - we appreciate you :)

on April the 13th I had:

Mmmmmm, myself and the Monarch are in Portland, Oregon now and 'tis YUMMY :) Me like it here. I suspect this has a lot to do with it being spring - it is soooooooo beautiful here right now - I'll aim to take some pictures soon to share...
Today we went for a long walk in the neighbourhood we're currently residing in and there are so many gorgeous gardens around, with trees in full blossom, tulips, daffodils, veggies growing and towering old 'grand-daddy' trees who look like they've been here for countless decades, watching the comings and goings...the air is fresh and clean, the streets are scattered with colourful flowers and blossoms and people are SO friendly here - almost everyone we pass on the streets says hello and cars voluntarily stop to let us cross the road in places where there aren't even any crossings... ;)
We're loving it here...and we speak here this Friday, the 17th, from 7pm at the Friend's Meeting Hall - see all the details HERE on our events page. We hope to see you there if you're in the area and can make it... ;)

All blessings,
Angela. xxx
