If that sounds like you, consider this dish a compromise. No doubt, the idea of eating raw food is appealing. If you haven't read Gena's guest-post intro to raw foods, it's worth it for the inspiration. The problem for me (and for many of you, I'd bet) is that the actual raw food itself isn't…

What do you know, another Monday. But this Monday is special, for lots of reasons, not the least of which are that I'm on spring break and my second-ever 50K is on Saturday. It's also the start of the last full week of my first year of blogging, seeing as I started this blog on…

Happy Sweet-Tooth Friday! This is Christine with a very special dessert this week—one that is not only vegan but also gluten-free and raw! I've never made a raw cake before so I was pretty skeptical, but this cake was packed with amazing fresh flavor! Ch-ch-ch-chia! Ok my apologies, but there has been a lot of…

I read a great post by Hanlie yesterday that revitalized my excitement about raw food. I love the idea of eating raw, and the increased energy that comes along with it. And I do eat a lot of raw food, in the form of raw smoothies, salads, and fruits— my guess is that about a…

Hello again, and Happy Sweet-Tooth Friday! It's Christine here, back with another healthy dessert. This week I made Frozen Banana Truffles, perfect for your summertime sweet-tooth! This dessert is vegan, gluten-free, and raw! The idea to make a banana-themed dessert this week was obvious to me. Obvious, because I had SEVEN pounds of bananas sitting…

Don't you just love when one of the words in a recipe title is in quotation marks, almost as a disclaimer? 30-Day Challenge Week 1 Well, the first week of our 30-Day Challenge is over, and I want to know who's still with us! Some people started early, and some are still signing up (really),…

What's up, no-meaters? Brendan Brazier (author of Thrive) has been nice enough to give me the green-light to share some recipes from his book while I'm trying them out during my 30-Day Challenge, so I've been slaving in my "test kitchen" (read: lots of cleanup) to find the best of the best to post. In…

Thanks for all your congratulations! I'm still a little sore from the race, but in all the right places (muscles, not joints). I haven't run again yet, but I'll likely be back at it today or tomorrow. I'm even considering running my town's 5k on Sunday– it's kind of soon, but I've never run a…
