Raw Vegan Recipe: Macadamia Nut Cheese

Date July 13, 2008

This is aka Mac Cheese for short. My friend and faithful forum member, Shari, had her recipe posted on another site several years ago. Then, one of the members posted it on the forum right here. Shari said she’d take pictures to illustrate the steps but I’ve gotten a round tuit before she did. She [...]

It’s Friday again and I’m so glad.

Date July 11, 2008

This is a week’s worth of time I’ll never get back. I didn’t make notes. I didn’t have time and I wasn’t so inclined anyway.
To say it’s been horrendous would be the understatement of the year. I just thought I had stress before.
I’m getting ahead of myself. Sunday, I managed to get some sun. [...]

The Raw Vegan: Part XXXIX, A Lifetime Investment

Date July 8, 2008

One day, DH came home brimming with excitement. He didn’t like living in the cramped little house any more than I did and he’d been asking around. One of the tips sounded very interesting and he came to get DD and me to go check it out. We piled into the Peugeot and, with directions [...]

My Square Foot Garden Update 1

Date July 6, 2008

My poor little garden is beginning to not be poor any more. It’s growing! I’ve been able to apply some worm tea to one of the boxes but I don’t remember which one it was. I should have noted it for comparison but it’s too late now. Fish emulsion in rainwater is another thing I’ve [...]

A Meaty Subject

Date July 5, 2008

My head is about to burst! We had a guest speaker today and, after standing on the porch for an hour after church listening to him talk, I came home. I had to force myself to take time to eat and get some sun. I usually enjoy my 30 minutes outside but it was at [...]

Another Week—History

Date July 4, 2008

I’ve made notes again this week but you can hope I won’t use them all. It’s been busy with lots to report.
Sunday dawned dark and cloudy. It rained most of the morning and I was unable to get outside for some vitamin D manufacturing. That afternoon, I went to

The Raw Vegan: Part XXXVIII, Life Goes On

Date July 3, 2008

Life on the mountain took on a reassuring monotony. DH went back to flying and DD and I resumed our shopping ventures, sometimes buying and sometimes just looking. The “always” was going to one of our favorite restaurants to eat. They weren’t expensive and I did so hate to pack a lunch to take along. [...]

My Worm Farm or Meet Ralphs

Date July 1, 2008

I’ve been asked to do some more raw vegan recipe posts complete with pictures but I haven’t had time to concoct anything, let alone photograph it. I’ll get around to it maybe this weekend but I’m not making any promises. In the meantime, I’d taken some pictures to chronicle my worm farm aka vermiculture so [...]
