Living Rawesome

Day #190 Vanilla Ice Cream pg. 96 entertaining in the raw

January 31, 2009

Well, this is the last day of January and 2010 is proving to be a productive and bright year! All of my classes are going well. These include Anatomy and Physiology 2, The Quest, and also committing to The Four Agreement class. The first Citrus County Raw Vegan Gathering went great. I just received the final email about Jackie and Gideon Graff coming to Lecanto Florida. I am so excited! The Citrus County Raw Vegan Gathering is hosting them on February 23! If you are interested there will be info on their website or you can email me.

I just went to Chef Olive’s class in Orlando and I am more excited about Raw Foods again! Funny the way it is, it seems I can’t get any more fired up about the living foods and then I experience even more to draw me in! If you haven’t seen Chef Olive, GO! It was wonderful! She covered Dehydration, and Fermentation. She is a wealth of knowledge and an awesome, lively, fun, loving spirit. I will definitely go again!

Another reason to celebrate is the 6th month anniversary of my MK project! I am in awe that I continue to do this project! I love preparing raw food, more than I really love doing anything else!

Tomorrow is the first day of the Fitness In Citrus challenge. This is a challenge that measures our activity levels. The idea is to get up and get moving. The more exercise we do, the more points we get. The idea is to get into better physical condition and have fun! Of course everyone has different reasons why they are doing it. My reasons are numerous, but most of all just another challenge to put on myself. I think I am challenging myself to see how much I can really do. Our team is named, “The Real Deal”! and I am the team captain:) It’s going to be a great 5 weeks.

Today I made the vanilla ice cream, and it is delicious. I did try some with the syrup when I got home and that didn’t turn out so good, the ice cream was delicious, but I just wanted more and more. Oh well, not going to beat myself up. My body will do that tomorrow. It is all a process, the only process I really want. I would rather not put processed food in my body, but sometimes I choose to, probably from all the years of conditioning. I am becoming my more radiant me!

My family hasn’t tried the sundae yet, because we were not here all day. I am waiting to make the raspberries syrup. Tomorrow I guess, I will.

Well, time to house clean, it’s 9:15 pm. Hope I can get it all done, I am running on low. I am tired and ready for bed but I need to study tomorrow, so I need to do the cleaning now, so I am not anxious to do it tomorrow. I have been up since 6 and I really am exhausted, but NOPE I will do what needs to be done:)

Goodnight!
