The Future’s So Bright...

So I’m sitting on one of my kitchen bar stools this morning thinking, it’s been awhile since I’ve hosted any sort of giveaway. It’s time for another, dontcha think?

The very nice people at CSN Stores have offered to sponsor my next giveaway. Now, before you get too excited and jump to the comment section to enter the contest, WAIT! This is the unofficial announcement – a teaser. Hee hee! I’m just alerting you to check back for the official post about this particular giveaway, which will be in the near future. In the meantime, please feel free to peruse CSN’s websites www.cookware.com or www.allbarstools.com; this might come in handy for the contest. ;)

Now, for some other fun stuff:

The other day I received my lovely gift from HippieMom that I won from her blog recently. This prize to me is extra special because it’s a “just because” gift. She handpicked some of her favorite items of hers to give away to some lucky person, which so happened to be ME! Uh yeah, this weekend there will be a luxurious bath waiting for me. I need it! Ahhh… In our household, we love olive soap too so this makes it even more perfect. Oh and the organic green cardamom…wow, that smells amazing! I can only imagine its taste. Really looking forward to trying it all. So thank you HippieMom!

For those of you still experiencing the harshness of winter I’m really sorry. Not to make you jealous…okay, I am but where I live, our winter has been very mild (or nearly non-existent) and the past couple of days and into this weekend we are talking SPRING! Birds singing, buds bursting with color, sun, sun and more SUN! I suppose there is one down side with this early spring: the Winter Olympics. Vancouver, BC is three hours up the road from me and if you’ve noticed when watching some of the events you can see the trees or some hills in the backdrop not covered, if at all, with much snow. Fortunately, it’s all working out. I know it is for me! Winters are always challenging so having these sunny days is doing a lot of good. Time for renewal, change, cleaning and lots of playing. And don’t forget gardening! Yardsnacker is working on planning our garden at the community garden and most likely staying on the Board. Busy busy! Soon, we’ll have lil Yardsnacker out there “helping.” (Photo: Daily Mail UK)

I do have some more goodies to announce but since I’m in a teasing mood, I’m going to wait before I say anything more. Just more things for you to look forward to.

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
