This is perhaps my favorite green smoothie recipe ever!  I made it up today, with ingredients that I had laying around the kitchen.  As it turns out, this method of food preparation seems to be a great of getting those creative juices flowing.  Here are the ingredients:
1 banana

6-8 figs

1 mango

1 handful spinach

Juice of 1 orange

Eric Childs is his name, Kombucha is his game!  Kombuchaman is working on getting a brewery set up in Brooklyn so he can sell his 16 oz bottles for $3 to people interested in this healthful drink.  If you’re used to buying kombucha, you probably know that this is a good deal!
Check out this NY [...]

These are from the same event, as the last belly pics, but this is a different performance.  I’m dancing with in Troupe Wysteria, under the direction of Thia.  I’ve been dancing with Thia for the past 7 years and I’ve been a member of Wysteria for the past 4.  Dancing with them has been a [...]

The lovely Ingrid over at RawEpicurean is not only talented and adorable, but she is also very kind to boot!  She has put together another Free Giveaway with goodies from 123Raw.  Head over there and check out the inspiring interview with the owner of 123Raw, Rebecca Carlson.

Well, I’ve put this award business on the back burner for a month and now that I have another one, its time to follow through.    In February, the lovely Lauren from Ginger is the New Pink nominated me for the Kreativ Blogger Award and today I woke up and found out that cutie [...]

Yesterday I bought one of my most favorite products available to me:  Gt’s Kombucha.  The first things I noticed as I was unwrapping the seal of my Gingerberry bottle, was that they had switched lids.  The previous lids were made of some type of painted metal.  These new lids were a lot lighter, plastic and [...]

Before March 7, 2009, I had never danced a solo in a belly dance festival.  I’ve danced by myself at restaurants, and for friends, but never have I done a solo for such a large audience.  I’m so glad that I finally did this!  It was quite scary, but I think I did all right.  [...]

Last week, Joe and I took another recipe from my free ebook “One Week Raw”.  The recipe is the dinner entree from Day 7, and its delicious!  Mango lettuce wraps are a favorite around our house, and they are very easy to prepare.

Any kind of fresh, crisp lettuce should work well here.  As long as [...]

I can’t wait to see what lays in store for the next three years!

I’m convinced that this is one of the most perfect forms of exercise, yet I don’t do it nearly enough.  Lately, cross country skiing is an activity that we try to take on at least once a week, depending on the weather conditions.  Don’t get me wrong, I love my snowboarding.  If its a powder [...]
