The Food

So much of what I've been doing lately with the raw lifestyle is centered on the recipes. I know this will change soon because one of us is going to hit recipe overload. (Actually, Enrique will hit it first, but then I will keep pushing the envelope.) But, right now I am not juice feasting, not fasting, not setting any food goals, and honestly, it's hard to tell how I really feel since my entire life has been revolutionized. I'm just satisfying the hunger and then turning around and letting the little one suck half of the nourishment right out, and going right back to the kitchen again.

In addition to being so hungry, its difficult to go outside right now. Besides being almost 100 degrees in Ojai, we have to contend with the Zaca fire. Here is a picture a friend of mine took from her backyard in nearby Montecito:

So, yeah the air quality is disgusting right now. Might as well stay holed up inside with my recipe books and trusty dehydrator.

As for baby?

He just grows and grows. Right now, he is in the 50% for his height and weight. I don't have exact measurements today, but I'll do a post on his specifics in the future.



Because I'm spending so much time preparing yummy foods, I decided not to separate the recipe blog from the main blog. I'll leave the link to past recipes, but from now on, I'll just post what I'm doing here.

Last night I made a huge batch of Russell James' Mediterranean Almond Bread. I turned half the recipe into pizza bread by topping it with Juliano's Exquisite Marinara recipe and dehydrated that overnight. Here it is in it's first incarnation:


Its actually really yummy alone as a snack, but just for fun I'm going to throw some toppings on there and see where that takes me.
