Colors of Summer

The start of summer is here me thinks.. well judging by the abundance of color around the Mahon Point farmers market today.. only it's a pity the big yellow sun didn't show up.. as it got a bit chilly, funny that word is almost the same as chilli, probably the hottest herb on earth.. I love playing with words and an example of this was this morning at the market a girl said to me, kinda dispairingly ''I don't know what kind of summer were going to get'' and I said ''be happy whatever happens'' thats why those words 'happy' & 'happens' are so similar.. so it was smiles all round then :)


My friend Pat who has a stand there asked me to run it for him onsaturday so that should be fun, I'll have Nicole with me. He sells wheatgrass/juice and lots of different kinds of sprouts, his website is here. If I get time tomorrow eve I'll make some raw foods to sell there too and I'll pop the recipies up here.. so stay juicy, keep a colorful out-look, be happy whatever happens oh and eat more fruit..

Yummy Life

I haven't blogged in ages but here's an update on my raw and healthy life. In early July I started collecting my drinking water from a natural spring, well its called a well, St Johns Well. It's shaped like a bee-hive with a tiny opening, there's a pool of water inside but I get my water as it curiously trickles down from the walls inside or pours down from them depending on the recent rainfall. It tastes crisp and is refreshing and is quite cold, which is something one should look for when collecting spring water, the colder it is the less chance of harmful bacteria being present in it. Good drinking water is essential for great health and our bodies are mostly made from water so it makes sense to hydrate your blood and organs with natural water.

I first tried a Durian fruit during the summer too, I loved it despite its shape and funky smell. Tho I didn't enjoy them as much when I ate them again in the autumn.
I blended up a segment of durian with blueberries and almond milk, it was so nice...

I find that eating out is becoming easier for my healthy appitite, maybe its my increased intuition since going raw that is leading me to the best restaurants around or else the world is becoming more open to healthy eating, I think its a mixture :)
