I have been eyeing the last 2 bananas left and contemplating a shake. I went for it! 2 bananas, a squirt of honey, a teensy pinch of salt and a bit of vanilla, mixed with the last of my almond milk, and - may i burn in raw foods hell! - a shake or two of cocoa powder. i thought about mesquite powder, but... i dunno. i just couldn't resist the pull of cocoa. neither raw nor organic! well, it wasn't even a tsp, which is about 20 calories for cocoa. therefore, it was less than 1% of a 2000 calorie diet. hmm. bad nim!
ok, i'm over it. i'll look for carob tonight when i go shopping. doubt i'll find it raw; i never do. but after my fasting the next few weeks, i'll order a lot online and be loving life!
I think I was thirsty after that shake, which might be why I was craving sweet. Anyway, about 2 hours after the shake I cut up an apple and sprinkled some cinnamon on it, then drizzled just a smidge of honey on it. Yum! True vegans would hate me, but I don't consider myself a raw vegan, just a raw foodist who's mainly vegan. Ah, grey areas.
