Juicing at Work!

I've dreamed of this day for a long time! Today it was a reality! I actually brought my juicer to work and made juice there for the associates. I was part of an incredible event called "What Else Do You Do?". I like to share positive eating experiences so I figured I would contribute in the best way I knew possible. The juice was a big hit!

People were blown away that I juice every single morning. They wondered if it was a hassle. My response to that question is "Did you taste the juice". Yes, juicing requires cutting, grinding and eventually cleaning the juicer.....but there is so much positive energy in one glass of juice....it is worth ten minutes every morning!




I would like to give a shout out to a man who is inspired me at the deepest levels of my being. Mr. Jack Lalanne introduced me to gaining positive energy via a fresh glass of juice every morning. This was the one step into the world of positive eating I needed. Every day has been an adventure since your wonderful infomercial.

with reverence,

Open House




Tonight was my open house! Ry Chi hosted a ChiRunning class at the local park while I busily prepared some food at the house. We had a fresh salad with mixed greens, bok choy, avocado and strawberry. Raymond Tu made us some incredible sushi! I made fudge from fresh cacao beans. Even made a nice and simple pasta dish. Of course there was lots of fresh juice and smiles.

I delivered a talk called Building a Positive Relationship with Food. I had never delivered it before. This was my first go at it. Fortunately I was in the company of friends and loved ones which made it easier. I would tell you what I said....but I would rather just deliver it for you. Let me know...I will talk to anyone about food, relationships and being positive :)

The night was full of friendship and fun. Lots of great questions were asked and I feel everyone left a little more positive than they came in. I want to thank everyone of you who did come and reads this blog. That was awesome guys. Thanks for helping me live my dream!

stay positive,
