I’m back! Still going raw, and I’ll be a bit more regular in the future… life just caught up a bit, but I’m still raw, and that’s what’s important for this 30 day challenge. I’ve mostly filled up my meals with cashews, apples. oranges, dates. bananas, and celery sticks. I did make some raw cookies,…

Day 9 – Football season
Sunday, Sunday, SUNDAY!!! I am man, and as man, I must watch football. I love my nachos, chips, wings and pizza, but that’s the kind of talk that got me to where I was in the first place. So, what can I munch on instead while yelling at the tv for the next 3-4 hours?…
Day 7ish-8ish – Sushi Time
I’ve already told you about my endless love for all things Tex Mex. Well, I also love Japanese food as well. (not as bad health wise, but loads of carbs due to the amount of rice served per meal) I used to live in Japan as a teenager, and first of all, sushi in America…
Day 6 – Hands Off My Nut Meat
The kids have told me that every Tuesday night is officially Taco night. I know they like tacos, and all things Tex-Mex (and I think they also like to speak alliteratively by saying “Taco Tuesdays” as many times as possible until they’re sure I know what I’m supposed to cook for them that night). Me, personally?…
Day 5 – Mixing It Up
I know me and just like I said, I’m getting bored with simply eating unmixed food. It feels like I’m snacking all the time, or eating off of a really healthy hors d’oeuvres tray. So, I’m going to make my first dish, outside of making a salad today. It got this recipe from an Ani Pho…
Day 4 – Nothing Like A Good Date…
Do you know what? I love dates. I love the taste of them. I love the sweetness they provide me when I’m going raw, because if you were/are a big consumer of sugary products (and most of us were as kids, and perhaps as adults… candies, most morning cereals, specialty drinks from starbucks, “fruit” juices,…
Day 3 – Amped Up…
I realize I missed a blog post yesterday and there’s a reason. That’s because once my caffeine fog lifted, I woke up yesterday and found myself with WAY too much energy. I got up around 5:30 (on a saturday, like an old farmer or something), my headache was gone, my body felt energized and I…
Day 2 – The Upcoming Storm…
Ok, it’s day 2. I’ve packed a great lunch again… baby carrots, 2 oranges, raw cashews, a few prunes, and a few bananas. (By the way, I’m a big time banana horder… I usually buy about 8-10 pounds a week, and I just snack on them and do a variety of other things with them….
Day 1 – 30 Days of Rawness…
Ok, I’m on it. I went to the sueprmarket yesterday and loaded up on some good, raw, wholesome food. I stocked up with tomatoes (plum and grape), oranges, lettuce (boston and a spring salad mix) raw cashews, cantaloupe, red onion, garlic, and like 10 pounds of bananas. For breakfast/lunch, I had some decaffeinated tea, 3…
30 Day Raw Food Challenge Begins Wednesday, November 28th!
Ok! It begins! The 30 day raw food challenge. I know I announced it earlier but we’re going to get on this challenge and make it happen! We had to get that horrible thanksgiving day holiday out of the way first, but now were in the clear until Christmas. So, why Wednesday and why not…
