“Raw Living” by Kate “Magic” Wood
This is a truly good book for everyone yet, especially for parents and/or if you have a spouse who isn’t raw and doesn’t seem to be ever heading that way.
Personally, I’ve heard of many hard-core, die-hard spouses say they’ll never go raw and then, after seeing their loved one(s) transform in so many ways, they finally, albeit slowly, take the plunge.
A few things I like about this book ~
She addresses children and their needs; conception; pregnancy, husbands (and other partners) and, this is the only book I’ve seen so far (or, maybe I’ve just not looked) where aphrodisiacs are discussed.
After chatting with Kate on Rawkin Radio, (up July 14, ‘09) I understand her use of so-called super foods. (to me, anything living, fresh, organic and edible is a super food yet some have chosen to call certain other foods “super” (and often with first letters capped) … yeah, yeah, that’s just me!
Anyway, this book is waaaaay cool because the ingredients are common; the recipes ~ over 150 of them ~ have few ingredients and they are mostly listed in oz./tablespoons as well as grams so it’s cool for Americans as well as Europeans. At the beginning of each recipe she tells what equipment is needed, prep time and number of servings. She also includes “kitchen notes”, sprouting directions and a two-week sample menu. Hmmm. Thinking I may have to try that one.
For instance, Apple Creme Pie ~ Pie crust, 3 ingredients; Filling ~ 6 ingredients, all easy to find.
Go ‘head and order it. You’ll be glad you did ~
