Quad and Raw

QUAD
What a mad mad weekend! On Friday night, my friend, Kastle invited me to Quadrophenia (look up THE WHO if you don't know what I"m talking about!) with her. It's a staged production and I braved the hail storm (yes, hail storm in LA!) to go and check it out. Together we braved the insanity known as 'which color wristband do you have' inside the Avalon Theater to figure out where we were allowed to sit. Wow! After all that craziness, it was definitely worth it. The lead character is played by Stephen Shareaux who was the lead singer for Kik Tracee and he is reeeeeeeally well suited as a singer in a big production play. Overall, it had its high moments and I don't get out much to plays so for me, it was a gas.

Saturday, we had a client in our recording studio. So that was fun!

RAW
But during this whole time........we have been reading and absorbing this book about living a raw food lifestyle. Since this particular book is written by two chefs, we found it particularly interesting as the recipes are verrrrrry delicious. At the same time, my friend told me she had a juicer she no longer wanted so we graciously received her juicer for free. We are going for the raw life. So far, I feel terrific. No cooked foods is agreeing with me. It's weird to eat like this at first, but I'm liking it, I'm liking it. Plus, I get to eat pretty much as much as I want! God knows, I love to eat! I've been reading alot over on this forum and finding lots of sites dedicated to the raw food lifestyle. We will eventually get an ice cream maker and make our own dairy free/soy free ice cream!!!!!!!! Imagine eating a gallon of home made coconut ice cream?! I can!!!!!

Notice how I go straight for the sweets part of it all? Actually, I'm craving sugar waaaaaaay less now that we've been doing this for a few days. We're still not what they call 100% raw.........we are transitioning. But we're both into it. I feel soooooooooooo damn Californian. Bloody hell. First the feng shui and clutter clearing and now this! What's next? Hypnoretrospacetravel-therapy???????????

I've been so curious about raw food, but i have to say that there's something in me that drives me to warm food. now, i do know that some food is heated but never above a certain temperature, but still, my body crave warm foods vs cool/cold foods. I'm interested to "watch" your journey.

Good luck with your raw food eating! I've never had interest in restricting anything from my diet [must.enjoy.everything!] but I've seen the benefits of eating that way. Keep us posted on how you like it! :)

Hi Share. This may be out of topic but, belated Happy Birthday to you, fellow Arian! I just saw your past and present videos. By golly, I don't understand why you're not as big as HOLE or something. You're my favorite musician, male or female. I'd probably cry if ever I see you play in person. Any hopes of visiting Canada this year?

Oh my god! I must apologize for including the word "Arian" on my previous comment. You must think me very wicked. I thought it meant "a person who was born under the sign of Aries." I was talking to my co-workers today and they laughed their heads off when I told them I'm Arian. The words "skin-head" and "nazi" came out. Then I got what it meant! I am soo sorry. I'm very, very embarassed and ashamed right now.

I know this was posted a while ago, but I just wanted to thank you for writing about raw foods. I thought was cute and quaintly impossible, but your posts made me interested. I started visiting the same forum and became more and more convinced there was something to this.

I gathered some recipes and now both my husband and I are also trying to go 100% raw. We've been eating mostly raw for the past three weeks, and it's great! I feel wonderful and the food is so healthy and delicious. Plus, I love the challenge of learning new ways to prepare food. Thank you, thank you!
