Raw Foods Potluck

...a vast array of bright & colorful uncooked foods was the centerpiece of a pleasant evening for vibr8

Tonight I attended a rawluck. It was quite amazing. I had spoken on the phone with the woman who coordinates the rawlucks, and made a plan to bring organic watermelon as my contribution to the meal.

It was my first raw foods potluck. I've eaten raw foods before. Well, of course, everyone has...when they eat salads or when they eat fruit.

I had also tried many different raw foods that are prepared from recipes that have been outstanding. But I had not been to one of these gatherings of people with a vast array of intensely colorful raw foods.

There was a frozen coconut dessert that the hostess planned to garnish with flowers. Shortly after I arrived, she went out into her garden and picked some rose petals and some delicate small bluish-purple flowers. The delicate small flowers went on the coconut dessert before it went into the freezer.

Once everyone had arrived, there was a memorial prayer for a local raw foods pioneer who died recently (see my blog-- http://curezone.com/blogs/m.asp?f=268&i=23 ) and the hostess said a blessing expressing group thankfulness for our repast, then everyone began gathering this beautiful food on their plates.

There was a light green colored hummus that was made with almonds rather than garbanzo beans. Mint leaves added the light green color. There were a few exquisite fruit salads with blueberries, blackberries, melon, kiwi, strawberries, and much more. There was a peach cobbler with a crust that tasted like figs (it probably was figs), and an incredible seaweed dish.

The "garlic bread" was dark, flat, and chewy, and tasted very good. Our hostess told me the recipe for it is in her book, "Rawsome" (available at her website: http://www.brigittemars.com/books.htm or at most bookstores). Actually she told me that the recipes for many of the foods on the two countertops and on another table were in her book. She said that most of them are simple to prepare. This was encouraging.

There were also several excellent green salads, and a raw borscht that was sweet and a bit crunchy. I enjoyed the crunchy texture.

A really nice aspect of this rawluck was that there was not any judgment. Some people there have eaten totally raw foods diets for many years, others eat 1/2 raw foods--there are many variables. People there were talking openly about this and I did not sense any judgment. It was a comfortable, unconditionally accepting environment.

If I were to try and stop to figure out what percentage raw my current diet is, I would say maybe 30%. I enjoy rice, I eat a bit of bread here and there, now and then, and I enjoy veggie burgers (tempeh) and salmon. I really don't eat red meat and have not for many years. I know that I would be healthier if I could gradually switch to all raw foods. I am certainly considering it.

I feel good tonight. Chi flowing freely, no aches & pains. Tired, because I've had a long active day.

It's nice to live in a town where these rawlucks are happening twice a month and sometimes more often. I simply must keep going and would recommend them to anyone!
