Show Your LOVE :)

WOW – did you see the review of ‘Raw Emotions’ posted over onRawFoodRightNow.comyet? They just posted it up a couple of days ago and it was so much fun for me to see this book summarised fromsomeone else’s perspective. So much of my time and energy this last year went into co-creating this book that it’s kind of challenging for me to get perspective on it anymore – you know that feeling? When you’ve worked on something so intensely, you’re justimmersedin it and can’t get an overview...well, this review helped to show me what it was that this book is all about ;) LOL... They even give asection-by-section breakdownof what the book contains...

Here are a few littleexcerptsfrom their review – you can read the whole thingHERE.

Are you familiar with the world of ‘RawBabyAlex’ and mumMelissa Gilbert? If not, Melissa has been documenting her raw food baby’s progress online for quite some time and it makes fascinating reading – especially for anyone interested in raising kids raw. Melissa has actually compiled two wonderfule-booksof all the different recipes that Alex has loved as he’s been growing up, from baby foods to toddler treats. (He is such a healthy big boy now that his blog has actually been moved along to ‘Raw ToddlerAlex’ ;) Melissa also keeps her own lovely blog atRawMom.blogspot.com, as well as writing regularly for the info-packed raw magazinePear.

Unfortunately, this amazing little raw family are having some prettychallenging timesat present...in February they wereburgledand all their possessions were taken. They moved house and even state, only to discover that they cannot find work in their new location and that very soon they will likely behomeless. They are in a time ofcrisis. On her mostrecent blog, Melissa writes that she visited the local food bank to try to get something to eat. They had no raw foods, except 5 bunches of celery, which they gave her. When she got home however, she realised they were almost totally rotten and unusable. Melissa is an incredible mother and gives tirelessly and with so muchloveto the raw community through her writings. I would feel so sad to see this amazing young family living out in the scorching Arizona desert in a tent with seemingly nowhere left to turn. They really could use some support right now - this is anopportunityto help out an incredible raw family. Instead of just asking people to donate money to help them with their situation however, I’d love to recommend that you invest in Melissa’s 2 fabulous ebooks – ‘Sunsational Raw Baby Food’ and ‘Sun-Sational Smoothies’. They are just $10 each, available from her siteHERE. Imagine the difference$20could make to a family that is in dire straits right now...and YOU get smthg wonderful too – two recipe books packed withtried-and-tested recipes;) I sincerely hope the raw food community will reach out and support this loving family unit in their time of need...please feel free to re-post this message andpassit alongto others in the raw food community too...and enjoy the recipes ;)

(P.S. If you DO feel moved to simply send a donation to the family, their Paypal email address isloverawlife@gmail.com) Thanks.

Many health-orientated people inCanadahave become concerned this week about ‘Bill C-51’– if you haven’t heard abt this yet, here’s the ‘skinny’ from the lovely Natasha ofSimplyRaw.com:



“If the Bill is passed, it will affect all Canadians' rights to health through theregulationof vitamins, minerals and herbal supplements.Currently, many of our councilors and MPPs areunawareof the details of Bill C-51. Canadians need to be informed and act immediately as it is a very serious matter.I just blogged about Bill C-51 athttp://www.ottawaraw.wordpress.comHere is the online petition:http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/billc51FI”
