41:100 purely delicious

received my issue and boy is this a great magazine :)

i came home from my weekend away and it sat quietly in my mailbox
waiting for my joyful outburst! thank you rebecca!!
it feels so good in my hands
and looks so good to my eyes
and such useful info- i can't wait to try the recipes.
what makes it especially wonderful ...
(besides knowing it came from my friend, publisher, shop owner)

-is that here in the boonies- it still is difficult to get the support
from the surrounding area establishments for raw-ness
and this is the cold north country (not your typical island paradise)
and tropical fruit isn't just a tree away-
just ask me when the last time when i even SAW a young coconut was-
um hmmm.
so any sparkle of raw foodie encouragement
is highly prized by me.
thank you rebecca!!!
it's beautiful

it's here!!!

the new issue of purely delicious

and my article within, including such recipes as
miso soup
porcini ravioli in cream sauce
rosemary olive bread
pomegranate & cream cupcakes
photos and all!


yippeeee!
if you want to subscribe to this magazine it comes out 4x a year.
i don't publish it but i know the wonderful girl who does.

i have been working on finishing the detail work
to get my book 'raw delights' ready for the publisher,
and i have been making good progress.
soon baby soon!!!!

it is the coldest week we have had all winter
and i am so glad to be warm by the wood stove.
the seed catalogs are beginning to arrive in my mailbox
and thoughts of gentle spring are tantalizing me.
i am looking forward to getting the garden ready
as soon as the weather allows for it.
meanwhile i will leaf thru these booklets
sighing at the the organic seed photos beckoning to me.
i have saved a goodly amount of seed from the plants i have grown
by saving 2-3 fruits or seed heads. as long as i keep the seed
free of humidity they grow even years later.
it makes sense doesn't it... pharaohs tomb had seeds that
were viable many many years after being picked.
just keep 'em dry!

well i suppose i need to get back to the editing work.
i just had to share my joyful news of the article...
stay well and stay warm! dream of happy things.

new things

feeling a little at odds with yourself?

everywhere around me people are focusing on the new year
and a new way of life to improve their own physical,
mental, and spiritual beings.
health... well being... happiness... and plenty other goals
yearned for and yet rarely reached.
it's not as easy as putting it on your to-do list.

it kind of reminds me of the i'll start the diet monday' way of thinking.
resolutions rarely stick. how many people have stopped smoking
every jan 1...
only to need to again by the next day, week, month, year.
real change comes from a deeper place.


i have found a nice little freebie dealing with successfully making changes,
here is a link for a free pdf that may help.
i found some useful info in it. it's called:
The Power Of Me 5 steps to personal success

here are a few more new things i have found this week:

today, i came across a new website the all raw directory,
that helps people searching all things raw,
and it looks really useful! i even signed up my blog & website.


new issue of purely delicious!
with a surprise from me inside ;)

with all the things you look forward to in this coming new year
i wish you all health and happiness!
