Hurom Slow Juicer

This is my favorite juicer. Do not be deceived by the word "slow" in the name. The time it takes to juice is comparable to my other centrifugal juicer and the main reason I love the Hurom is that I don't have to stop every few minutes to clean out the pulp that gets caught in the screen. It does a nice job of juicing any veggies, leafy greens and fruits. Clean up is easy. I can't say enough about it!

New Name: The Elusive Introvert

"I want to live simply. I want to sit by the window when it rains and read books I'll never be tested on. I want to paint because I want to, not because I've got something to prove. I want to listen to my body; fall asleep when the moon is high and wake up slowly; with no place to rush off to. I want not to be governed by money or clocks or any of the artificial restraints that humanity imposes on itself. I just want to be, boundless and infinite." Unknown** Hello! They say "start where you are" so here goes... Nearly seven years since I posted here. Time flies. And a lot has happened since then. Mostly good, but also some lessons learned along the way.

It had bright background colors and chipper-sounding content for the most part. But that's not me. And things are not always wonderful. A...

Day 2 at Hippocrates

Monday. First thing today was having a blood draw, blood pressure taken and weight check. Blood Pressure: 128/80 Weight: 173 I was surprised by the weight because I was 177 when I left home, so already some improvement! More mandatory orientations: Internal Awareness which all about our digestive system and the importance of colon health (enemas and wheatgrass implants and colon hydrotherapy). Wheatgrass Instruction which did not have too much new information for me since I have been doing wheatgrass shots on and off for a couple of years ever since I attended a lecture that Brian Clement gave in Fairfield but nevertheless they have electronic wheatgrass juicers here, so it was good to learn how to use them. I currently have a manual wheatgrass juicer and I kinda like it cause you get to have a mini arm workout while you juice. The afternoon consisted of back-to-back lectures. I don't have my notes here with me at the moment, so I can't write them all down righ...

Recipe: Faux Salmon Steak (raw, vegan)

This recipe was demonstrated and served at Chef Renate's home. She is one of the chefs at the Hippocrates Health Institute in West Palm Beach, Florida. Approximately 3 Sundays a month, she and her husband host 10-15 guests to a delightful evening including information on the raw food lifestyle and the various types of equipment used in raw food preparation (juicers, food processors, Vitamix, dehydrators, water ionizers, etc). The night we went, the demo / menu included Mushroom Ceviche as an appetizer and a Garden Herb dressing served atop a bed of organic mixed greens. The entree was Faux Salmon Steak with a Caper-Dill Sauce. And the desserts included a most delicious and impressive raw food version of Key Lime Pie and decadent Chocolate Truffles.
