I’m going to an L.A. raw foodie potluck this upcoming Saturday hosted by Dhru (We Like it Raw), Courtney Pool (Radical Radiance), and Puki Freeberg. I’m nervous! I suffer from the shyness & insecurity when it comes to meeting strangers, especially when they’re famous (at least in the raw world). I know it’s ridiculous. I’ll be repeating self-love mantras all week. I’m sure it will end up being wonderful and it will help keep me motivated on this high-raw path.
I’m going to make carrot & currant salad from my all time favorite raw culinary book: Living Cuisine by Renne Loux (Underkoffler). Simple, healthy, delicious and my non-raw family love it. I need to keep this as low-stress as possible. I’ll be sure to take my camera and let you know how it goes.
Speaking of stress, I’ve got a lot less of it now that my wife’s garden is producing. No need to go to the farmers market and fight the crowds. Check out the spinach patch! Guess what I’m using in my green smoothie today! Going to be a brown smoothie though. Spinach + orange = brown. Ah well, it’s still good for me.
