Happy Happy!


I have been nominated by two lovelies for the Happy 101 Blog Award! The two lovelies I speak of are Rawdorable and Raw Goddess Heathy - thank you ladies!

What this means is I list 10 things that make me happy or more specifically:

List 10 things that make you happy, try to do at least one of them today, and tag 10 bloggers that brighten your day. For those 10 bloggers who get the award, you must link back to my blog!

In no particular order, my 10 things:

1. Family/Friends: where would I be without them? I have a family I adore; my husband, oh he's a treasure - my best friend, my companion, my strength. My baby, Caleb, he is my world. And my sister is the most awesomest and my best friend too. Of course, there are my friends. Both in person and online (you) are special treats.
2. Music: fits whatever mood and sometimes bring that balance needed at times.
3. Crafts: I love making handmade cards, although I sadly missed doing that this year. Too busy! And my new hobby, crocheting.
4. Reading: again too busy to do much reading this year but I love delving into a new adventure!
5. Playing and reading to Caleb: I love every moment with him and love the fact he loves books too. He's going to be my little reader. ;)
6. Sun: like Ms. Bitt, I too love SUNSHINE! It's sorely missed every time it hides.
7. Stress-free days: you know those days where you don't have a care in the world? Ahhh...
8. Food: I'm not one of those "eat to live" people, I'm a "live to eat" person. Okay, maybe not to the extreme but I do enjoy food and celebrations that involve food. :)
9. Sleep/Naps: who doesn't right? But seriously, now that I have a baby, I really really value sleep more than ever!
10. Presents: I love to give presents! For special occasions or not. But I'm not going to lie either, I love to receive them too. But I love giving presents and hope this year I'm better at giving them.

Now, I'm supposed to pass this award onto 10 other bloggers. This is the hard part I think. If you're not nominated, please don't be bashful to swipe this award for yourself. Everyone is worthy and no doubt has some happy things they're willing to share. Because I've been a bit slow these days, I'm not sure who's been nominated already but here it goes anyway:

Sarah at Living the Fruity Life
Isle Dance
Debbie Does Raw
My sister Risible Girl
Connie at Naked Food Cafe
Bad Ash the Raw Food Climber
Charis of Raw Royalty
Michelle of Raw Cool
Antony Heaven in London
Amanda's Green Earth

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
