They are 100% raw and organic and 200% delicious. <a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAN_oeR5FBI/AAAAAAAACYI/wW7_OObd4Hc/s1600-h/TERILYNN2+095.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5189131528960545810" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAN_oeR5FBI/AAAAAAAACYI/wW7_OObd4Hc/s200/TERILYNN2+095.jpg" border="0" /></a>She gifted me a bag of my favorite granola(the Goji berry mix) and I'm going to create something tasty ( <em>As soon as I find my bag.

Spending time with her gives you such a wonderful positive energy. She is a great lady. </div><br /><div>My camera battery died about 10 minutes into its usage so I didn't get to take too many photos.</div><br /><div>A few raw booths were at the festival. I'm excited to report that there will be a new restaurant in Denver that will serve Organic, vegetarian, vegan and raw food. </div><br /><div>The restaurant, Solar, is located at 2615 Welton St., in the Historic Five Points area. </div><br /><div>Fatima, owner of Solar was on hand at the fest, offering raw falafels balls, wraps, desserts. Of course, this was the point where my camera went kaput.</div><br /><div>Here were a few of the other raw or semi-raw booths.<a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAN_oOR5FAI/AAAAAAAACYA/gmCmnk2dEpk/s1600-h/TERILYNN2+099.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5189131524665578498" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAN_oOR5FAI/AAAAAAAACYA/gmCmnk2dEpk/s200/TERILYNN2+099.jpg" border="0" /></a><a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAOBA-R5FFI/AAAAAAAACYo/9t156E8yahQ/s1600-h/TERILYNN2+098.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5189133049378968658" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAOBA-R5FFI/AAAAAAAACYo/9t156E8yahQ/s200/TERILYNN2+098.jpg" border="0" /></a><a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAOBAuR5FEI/AAAAAAAACYg/uzQj-xpeNqY/s1600-h/TERILYNN2+097.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5189133045084001346" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAOBAuR5FEI/AAAAAAAACYg/uzQj-xpeNqY/s200/TERILYNN2+097.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><div>I was at the festival promoting Dr. by Gabriel Cousens' new book "<a href="http://www.21daycure.com/">There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+Program</a>." <a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAOBAOR5FCI/AAAAAAAACYQ/mi0tSjlPdVM/s1600-h/TERILYNN2+093.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5189133036494066722" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAOBAOR5FCI/AAAAAAAACYQ/mi0tSjlPdVM/s200/TERILYNN2+093.jpg" border="0" /></a>In my excitement of the event I forgot to purchase my copy of the book. My mother and aunt both have diabetes and it was something I wanted them to take a look at. I am every interested in Dr. Cousens approach to introducing non-raw eaters into eating raw. </div><div><a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAN_nuR5E-I/AAAAAAAACXw/vVxdKxLMvdc/s1600-h/shapeimage_2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5189131516075643874" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_ia_ON0Yrzf8/SAN_nuR5E-I/AAAAAAAACXw/vVxdKxLMvdc/s200/shapeimage_2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div></div><div>I have been eating a mostly raw diet for 4 years now and my mother still looks at me like I'm eating something from outer space. It's just broccoli mom.<br /></div><br /><div>To be fair, she has started drinking green smoothies. You gotta crawl before you can walk.<br /><br />A little birdy told me that Dr. Cousens was asked to speak at next year's event. That will very exciting if it happens. </div><div><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div>Terilynnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03007887161487904305noreply@blogger.com
