My Name is Melissa and I live in beautiful Nauvoo, IL. This is a blog to record my journey on raw food. I will share with you my first 30 days on raw food, some of my favorite recipes, and some very helpful websites. I am sharing because so many people have asked. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at ctradams@juno.com



My Favorite Raw Salad Dressing
Garlic, Ginger Dressing
1 1/2 c. Cold Pressed Olive Oil
1/3 c. Garlic Bulbs
2 Tbs. Ginger (about a 1-2 in. section depending on thickness)
3 Tbs. Nama Shoyu
1/2 c. Fresh squezed lemon juice

Blend all ingredients in a Vita-Mix or high power blender until smooth. This dressing is VERY yummy!

Day 18 July 16, 2008

Major headache tonight. UUGGH! I'm not sure if it is the detox or just old contacts.
I had a ton of energy today! I did yoga, walk, bike ride, & and another walk. I had so much energy and did so much my feet hurt tonight!
Today was the mommy/daughter lunch for Activity Days. We served stuffed tomatoes, salad, and watermelon. It was great! Today was also Court of Honor for Josh & Cambron. They served donuts & milk. Yuck! Usually I am ALWAYS tempted by donuts, but the thought of it made my stomach turn. I had NO desire! I jouined a 100 day raw pledge @ rawfu.com I am looking forward to the ideas. I met Viv's friend Sylvia today. She knows a lot about nutrition and raw food. I look forward to learning some new things.
