Four months

So what is it like to be a 95% raw vegan for four months?

1. 2 sizes smaller
2. haven't been sick at all.....no colds,no headache,no sore throats, no respiratory problems, NO STOMACH gas pains or other ailments....
3. more energy
4. hardly any muscle aches...i can actually get out of bed and not hurt
5. softer skin
6. enhanced taste buds....(if i taste anything processed or when we eat out,i cannot stand the taste...it is toooooo salty or sweet for me)
7. I can eat as much nuts, seeds, fruit and veggies that i want. No more limitations on the "3 fruits a day" diet or "use imitation chemical sweeteners instead of honey diet". How can anyone limit God's pharmacy of the wonderful fresh nutritious summer fruits!

So what am i missing?
1. nothing, I feel amazing!!!!!!!

Who would have thought!

Wasp Spray

I have a friend who is a receptionist in a church in a high risk
area who was concerned about someone coming into the office on
Monday to rob them when they were counting the collection. She
asked the local police department about using pepper spray and
they recommended to her that she get a can of wasp spray
instead. The wasp spray, they told her, can shoot up to twenty
feet away and is a lot more accurate, while with the pepper
spray they have to get too close to you and could overpower
you. The wasp spray temporarily blinds an attacker until they
get to the hospital for an antidote. She keeps a can on her
desk in the office and it doesn't attract attention from people
like a can of pepper spray would. She also keeps one nearby at
home for home protection. You could also keep it in your car and
it's perfectly legal. Thought this was interesting and might be
of use.

Our new neighbor

Our new neighbor is an alligator living in the creek behind our house.
So now, of all times, Eddie decides he needs to cut the branches sticking out of the water.
The tree fell from our yard during Hurricane Ike.

Kidney Beans

God's Pharmacy continued...

Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function.

And yes,
they look exactly like the human kidneys.

Beans and Rice

Soak desired amount of beans in water overnight.
Remove any bad beans that are floating in the water.
The next morning, pour off the water and replace with fresh water.
Put in enough water to cover the beans.
Add onion, garlic, bay leaf, salt and pepper.
As the beans cook, they will absorb the water, so you will need to add more.
Cook until the beans are tender.
Serve the beans in the liquid for soup,or strain and serve over rice.
