Living Rawesome Day #215 Chocolate Sauce pg. 48 entertaining in the raw
February 25, 2010
I am getting close to finishing this recipe. I still need to buy coconuts and raspberries. Cathy is going to be so excited. The photo in the book looks amazing. I think that it would be a good idea to use strawberries, especially because they are in season here in Florida.
As I made the chocolate sauce tonight, I did my best to avoid eating it. I knew that if I started eating it, I wouldn’t stop. So, I didn’t and I feel like I conquered my sweet fits that I usually have at night. I am getting better and starting to realize more and more about what I want to put in my body to have the best health ever. I decided maple syrup is not one of the things I should be eating everyday. Also I vowed to go raw for 30 days and I have been pretty much sticking to that. I haven’t been into anything that isn’t raw, well, if you consider cashews, and agave as raw. I feel that I really am questioning what I consider to be raw now that I have been eating raw for a few days now. I will write about that in another entry.
I am glad that I made the decision to do strictly raw for 30 days. I am starting to feel cleaner and lighter.

It’s funny when I write the same directions. Sometimes I wonder if I should still write the directions. I feel like those are the directions for 95% of the recipes I have been doing. It shows how simple raw food prep is. I love it.
