You know everytime I just know I 'shouldn't' be eating that, something like this happens.

I 'blame' it on an overactive Ray 7

Hawaiian or Tropical Guava is my guess I love the story about your blender, and more and more I am listening before I eat or drink something to see if it is a habit or I really want it.
I was looking on the web and someone invented an eco-friendly smoothie maker. It is attached to a bike and you pedal to blend! Mark x

is it a persimmon? I have no idea what they look like but thought I'd ask - those strawberries sound yummy!

yes, I find living on the road is interesting in regards food - sometimes I feel a pull to eat all raw food, but then it spoils so quickly without a fridge. Interestingly I've now camped at a place with (two) fridges available for me to use! plus the last few days been given loads of fresh(ish!) raw salad for free! so that feels pretty good. Though with my learning from previous raw food 'adventures' I know it serves me not to be dogmatic about it. so watch and feel.

I loved the blender story! sometimes I find that in a shop - something falls off the shelf at me, or out of the basket!
thanks.

yum. its still out then? I haven't seen any round in this area. I really like it too!

yes I don't feel to eat fully raw but more simple raw food feels pretty good.
to wild garlic and strawberries, though perhaps not together, cheers!

Hi Trinity

Interesting that you should post this article when you did. I am just finishing a 7 day juice-only cleanse and on one day I had to get up early to make the juice as I was working all day. I was up before the children and trying to be quiet. As I used the juicer and blender, I thought to myself how noisy and violent a process it was, so I reiki'd the juice - later I logged onto Openhand and came to this! Unfortunately I can't think another way of getting that much apple, carrot, beetroot, celery, spinach, pineapple, cucumber, courgette, avocade into me - it would be a HUGE salad. On a positive note, it has got the whole family back into eating more healthily. I had no sugary cakes/snacks in the house and they all noticed and said it had made them turn to bananas, apples, grapes etc and even some of my juice concoctions!

It certainly made me more aware of what I was actually doing to the food.

I had a similar synchronistic experience with electronic equipment recently - both the battery and the screen on my laptop have packed up, so it is not so much a 'laptop', more of a 'mainframe' with leads to screens etc. My first thought was 'fab, an excuse to get the Mac I've always wanted'. However, I decided to see if perhaps there was something to be learned from the situation and realised that the only lead that works in my spare screen is the same lead as the kids need for their stuff, so we can't all be using them at the same time. Consequently I have been spending much less time online - for which I am grateful to the universe!
