I’m trying to be more careful about consuming nuts because I’m on a mission not to gain weight before my wedding. I’m not trying to lose weight, but if I do, I’ll be a happy bunny. Other things that I’m tweaking are no desserts but I would indulge if I’m out with friends on the [...]
…in terms of time….Don’t you think it takes a while to chop everything up into nice bite-sized pieces? That’s why I only tend to have fruit bowls for breakfast on the weekend… This one has raspberries, apple, strawberries, blueberries, and banana. It was so yum…
Happy Friday! I was inspired by raw mama Kirsten Suzanne again and made cucumber boats. When I saw her picture of guacamole in cucumber boats, I was intrigued. As you know recently, I’ve been a bit turned off by green smoothies and I also realized that I was in a raw food rut. I tend [...]
This was a good day — the sun was shining and I felt blissed out tucking into some raw granola (Go Raw is my fave my far!) and walnut milk with strawberries, bluberries, banana, and raisins. There are bad days too. I get emotional thinking about potential big aftershocks, learning what to do in an [...]
Hi there, remember me? Sorry for being absent — life was a bit of a mess after the horrific Mar 11 earthquake and tsunami in the Tohoku region, which is in northeastern Japan. I live in Tokyo so I’m fine. But the days that followed the 9.0 earthquake threw the whole of eastern Japan into [...]
Last Wednesday, I was still sick with a stuffy nose and general tiredness. My 10 days in Melbourne were not my best and I consumed way too much of everything plus I didn’t sleep well (alcohol does that to me)… So upon my return, I filled my grocery basket with tons of fresh produce. I [...]
I loved the deep blush shade of this raspberry chia pudding and that’s the only reason why I’m posting this picture (!!!). It’s exactly the same recipe as my pink bubblegum strawberry pudding but just with raspberries. It’s funny how much my diet has changed. When I first discovered raw and vegan and vegetarianism, I [...]
It was pelting snow last Friday and it was a rare sight indeed because Tokyo is relatively snowless in winter. It has already snowed about three times in the space of a week and the weather has been perfect for snuggling in my futon. In case you are wondering, I do live right next to [...]
…yet another chia pudding. This is a hemp seed milk one with raw buckwheat cereal from Raw Pleasure in Australia with strawberries, banana, and dried cherries. I had a few chia puddings in Singapore when I bought some from the organic section in local supermarket chain, NTUC. I was so surprised to find buckwheat and [...]
How was your Xmas? Mine was lovely with family, presents, and lots of food. I have been raw as much as possible and it hasn’t been too hard because we are staying with the non-raw fiance’s mother – there’s a blender and a fridge so it’s been a breeze so far. I’m keeping things very [...]
