There Can Be Only One...

I'm terribly sorry for the long delay! I know you're anxiously awaiting the outcome of our Vita-Mix giveaway. The time is here!

To watch the announcement of both winners (can't forget the Artisana Coconut Butter prize) click here.

I have to say this was a very very tough decision to make. In our eyes, all those who submitted videos for the contest were worthy of the grand prize. No doubt about it. Thank you all who participated - believe me, I know how hard it is to get in front of the camera!

The videos we watched were inspiring, creative, and honest and all of you had great ideas and intentions as to how this will benefit you and your family's lives. See? All deserving, which made this so difficult but alas, we only had one Vita-Mix to giveaway.

The winning entry:



Thank you again to all who participated. Keep checking back here because you never know when another contest should pop up! :)

Hey Heidi,

Thanks for the compliment on my meals! I can't take all the credit, I usually end up getting things in my co-op box that I don't know what to do with so I end up throwing them in something and creating a random meal. How are you feeling? I hope everything is good! Thanks for the opportunity with your/yardsnackers contests..I keep forgetting, LOTTO TICKET! :)

Happy Friday! Thought I'd let someone else take the reins today and share with you an interesting topic. How Raw Diets Can Make a Difference Transitioning to a raw food diet is often thought of as only a personal choice, as a journey that one individually decides to embark on for whatever reason, whether it be ethical or health-related or some other reason entirely. But the Examiner in Sacramento suggests an interesting idea involving raw food diets that could potentially make a difference in the greater community. The social problem that the Examiner discusses is the city's increased problems with homelessness among seniors. The article reports that Sacramento has seen a sharp rise in the elderly being displaced, resulting from what many speculate the aging of the Baby Boomer generation. The article goes on to posit a refreshing new idea that would offer homeless seniors both a source of sustaining and sustainable nutrition and that would also give them something rewarding

WEGO Health: Superpower!

Image
We’ve all daydreamed about having a superpower like superheroes, haven’t we? I mean Superman can fly, reverse time (at least, in the name of love) and is uber strong. Spiderman, well, he uses web power to fly around and catch bad guys. There are other interesting superpowers like invisibility, walking through walls, shape shifting, or reading of the mind. That last one doesn’t interest me much ever since I watched an old episode of the Twilight Zone where the character could suddenly hear everyone’s thoughts and there was no filter so it became overwhelming and noisy in his head. Um, no thanks. At certain times though, I’ve wished for the ability. Could’ve saved a lot of problems, you know? Or be a fly on the wall… * According to this list, there’s insanely rich. I never really thought of that as a superpower per se but it is one I would love to have. That superpower should just be a given. With super wealth I could share it and help so many people, go to so many causes

The "Glow"

Image
I know I'm supposed to be working on a different post - about my trip - but wanted to interrupt that to share something else. ******** People into the raw food lifestyle are familiar with the "glow." Maybe you're one who's been told a time or two that you have the glow. It's noticeable to spot a person who obviously is taking care of themselves by what they do and put into their bodies and especially when on the raw food lifestyle. Eating raw foods allows your body to properly process and digest foods plus all the those living enzymes and minerals means less work your body has to do so the result is a beautiful youthful glow. I have received such comments, which are always great to hear but I have been hearing this more so lately. From people who don't know me to people in the raw food world. When I was at our local raw vegan sto re one of the owners we nt on about how I (and hubby too) have transformed since she first met me; that I do have a healthy glow
