Well readers here we are! Another year!
I wish you THE BEST YEAR you could possibly have!
You are ALL BEAUTIFUL SOULS!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Quite a bit has changed around here at Veg888 headquarters since last year!
I will continue to seek out longevity and healing & will ALWAYS INCLUDE YOU along my journey! 🙂
Thursday Night Run…
I headed out for my run about 5 min till 11pm. It was cold but there wasn’t a wind factor to contend with! Whew! Since it was so late, I was unable to take more than 1 picture of the run! 😦 I will miss the holidays! It is the only time the streets are illuminated with lights and creativity. One of the houses decorated their palm tree with various colored lights! Hopefully I will be able to take a picture of it before the lights are taken down!
I plan on running into the new year! I will be out there thinking of the wonderful world we live in and all the beauty it posses! Not that there aren;t bad things happening around the world, but I will release love into the world tonight! I hope you will join me! 🙂
Raw Cashew Adventure – Part II – Update
When I got home, I went to look at my cashew cheese. It smelled different than the eve before.
Projected Problems:
– I think I should have placed the cheese on top of the cheesecloth and allowed it to drain, this way I would have ensured a firm cheese. (This is all theoretical until I can experiment!)
-The blender I have has seen better days. Actually, it saw better days a year ago! 🙂 All the RAW FOOD PREPARATION over the last year has worn out the blades in both my blender and my Food Processor. I think if I had a better blender it would have ground the cashews better and I would have had a “thicker” firmer cheese. (Again my theory!)
With these factors in mind, I added lemon, onion powder, cayenne, salt, dehydrated leeks, scallions, and shallots.
I mentioned my “antique” molds and I wanted to use them for the cheese…
Here they are before the process…
Next I lined each mold with plastic wrap and filled each mold with cheese. Filled the molds with the cheese and covered. I had hoped the cheese would firm up by morning, but 8 hrs later the cheese is still soft! 😦 I have seen on the Raw Forums this problems occurs and I hope this is not like my adventure in making Gnocchi! In one word… DISASTROUS! I have NEVER ATTEMPTED it at home AGAIN!
Rejuvelac Front – Update
This is my third batch of Rejuvelac and I am quite PLEASED!!! Tonight will be the last batch I can make with what is brewing. I saved the other sprouts and hope to experiment with the next batch ALL TOGETHER! I am also going to DEHYDRATE the “spent” sprouts and make a bread!
I have noticed some profound differences since I have begun conuming REJUVELAC! My running times have contined to get BETTER! YES! Last night I ran the 2.8 miles in 38 minutes! For the last few weeks, between the REJUVELAC and the E3 I have felt enormous differences. I have cut my time by 8 minutes! 🙂 I’ve got to get to 35 minuted! Once I do that, I will be able to start with intervals. Intervals will change my time and strength while I am in a race! 10 k – HERE I COME!!!
Hopefully I will be able to conquer a 4-5 miler this weekend! I will let you know!
Another positive and maybe negative ALL AT THE SAME TIME – MY SENSE OF SMELL! I know this seems strange, but I have a keener sense of smell and sharper vision.
My stomach seems to feel really good all of the time and the “Taste Tester” has definitely experienced some changes as well! Love It! 🙂
Love and Light!
Namaste!
