So I went into Starbucks the other day, toting my own almond milk for a yummy pumpkin spiced latte. And my co-workers weren’t sure if they would use my almond milk but What Ho! They did! And they made a delicious latte with it.
Which made me love them. And then also wonder why I hate them. Because I kind of do. Hate Starbucks. But Why? Why are they so Evil?
Probably because they have just taken over the world. And they’ve squashed the little man. And I’m Vegan! I don’t even want to squash a bug!
So I don’t usually go to starbucks. But overall, coffee aint that good for you, but its not the worst thing. And Starbucks aint good for the world, but maybe they’re not the worst thing. And they let me use almond milk instead of soymilk! And just in case you didn’t know, soymilk might actually BE the worst thing

Ill let you know why on my next blog!

so. Ive been vegan for about 2 years, and Lately I’ve been wondering about a Raw diet. Will I feel more energetic? Drop some weight?
So for the last 2 weeks I’ve been eating primarily raw. And YES. I have more energy. Its wonderful, all the digesting is not as difficult anymore. And I’ve been reading up on what kind of foods you should pair with other foods, in order to digest more seamlessly: Its fascinating. I have also come across some recipes that are AMAZING. All that it takes to incorporate raw into your diet is a little research, and you will Feel the Benefits. I am currently only practicing a partial raw diet–about 2 meals raw, snacks raw, and one warm meal–and i am so glad i checked it out. Here is a recipe for mushroom soup that knocks my socks off:

• 1/4 cup almond butter
• 1/2 cup water
-Blend until smooth
-add
• 1 1/2 cups quartered mushrooms
• 2 teaspoons braggs amino acids
• a dash of salt
-blend.
-sprinkle some little mushroom pieces on top.

SO SO GOOD!! Enjoy!
