Amused Hey From The Windy City.......

Hey-

Awesome!! A community for people in the RAW? Found this place by accident earlier today, but now I finished registering & am giving a shout out to all RAW peoples in this forum. It's exciting...Being from Chicago, I have yet to meet anyone here that is 110% RAW so to speak. Hopefully I can connect with others of like mind for travels, meetings & share RAW recipes. I've been at this now for several years & have learned much on what works & what doesn't work, but there is always something new to learn which is why I'm here.

Yup, I spin fruit...Actually, I like smoothies as well as other things. See you around, I think I'm going to like it here.

Welcome! I live in Milwaukee, Wisconsin...well actuall just outside of Milwaukee in a suburb called New Berlin. Not as easy to eat raw here where most people eat brats and beer but I'm determined.

Amused Nice-

Ya, been RAW since 2004. Before that, I was half in & half out playing between vegan & RAW...It's been a long process, from junk food, to food conscious, to vegetarian, to vegan, to organic & now RAW; it took many years, but has been well worth it. The positive side of this is that illness no longer has any power; perhaps the negative aspect is that eating socially is no longer easy, but even that is a small price since I enjoy making my meals. Indulgence in cooked foods is what the majority is raised with, it's what's accepted - however, it's so not right, it's obvious seeing many sorrows upon peoples' heads & they have no clue what's behind it! Why carry the burdens of a living body trying to scavenge for any morsel of living food from any dead food consumed?

Let me say that living foods = life
Even more-so, let me say that simplicity + living foods = life (beauty + love + temperance + health) * 100x

Truth is in the simplicity of fruit - don't follow the masses lost in a sea of troubles, bounce away on the path of life & enjoy peace. But beyond that, good to see peoples in the neighborhood.......Well, at least within the state & next door! If you're RAW, you are awesome - if you're RAW curious, blessings to your journey home & if you're not, it's never late.

GypsieMama, do people in Milwaukie eat children (brats)? Now that some serious meat eaters. But seriously, what are brats?
