Thankyou JC

Switch on your speakers to listen to the music.
If you always do what you have always done, you'll always get what you have always got.

I received another award, thankyou so much JC I now have to pass it on but I will have to ponder on that one for now.












Okay. I have a fab spiraliser, the Spirooli, here is a pic of my Spirooli.















I find it difficult to make Angel Hair Pasta with my Spirooli, it has the blade to make Angel Hair Pasta but I can't make it as well as I would like, so after watching many demonstrations of a different Spiraliser, the Saladacco and lots of searching to find somewhere that sells it in the UK I managed to find it at Seemycells....phew! I received my Saladacco yesterday. I ordered it on Friday and received it on Monday morning, excellent service from Seemycells.
and here is a pic of it





























Here is another item that I have had on order and have been waiting for since February and I finally received it last week. 'Ani Phyo's Raw Food Desserts' Book. It is brand new out and is FAB! I will be making lots of things from this book and I will post pics.



















Not a lot to report today except I received an order that I placed with Raw Living....I LOVE THAT PLACE!! I ordered their NEW Biscru Crackers, NEW Lucky Me Chocolate Bars and a packet of Ashwaganda which is a Superfood and has lots of beneficial properties....hence it being a Superfood....of course!















I will be starting the school walks again because James has quit the monitoring, he said he is sick of the sight of pencils that he has to sharpen every day...teehee....poor kid! I LOVE HIM!!!!

Here is a pic of a Breakfast I had the other day.
I diced a Jonagold Apple and mixed it with
A few Sunflower Seeds
Buckwheaties
Dates
Cashews

I then made some Almond Milk made with, yep, you guessed it...Almonds....teehee I put the pre-soaked Almonds into my Vitamix along with pure water, 4 dates and a little Vanilla, whizzed it up and then strained and squeezed it through a Nut Milk bag. The Milk was DELICIOUS!! Sweet, very creamy and RAW!!















I started to take B12 and I think it is helping with my tiredness. I have read that when following a raw diet we can lack in B12 so I thought I would give it a go and like I said, I think it may be helping, although it might be early days yet to be sure.....time will tell. I suffer with depression anyway.

Below is from Wikipedia click on this link and have a read, it is very interesting.

Early and even fairly pronounced deficiency does not always cause distinct or specific symptoms. Common early symptoms are tiredness or a decreased mental work capacity, decreased concentration and decreased memory, irritability and depression.
Sleep disturbances may occur, because B12 may be involved in the regulation of the sleep wake cycle by the
pineal gland (through melatonin)[1].

Well that is all for now so I will be back tomorrow.
