Okay - so today I'm celebrating my successes for staying on track incorporating more REAL food into my life.  This past weekend my best friend from med-school invited me to join her for a raw juicing class.  I've always wanted to incorporate raw juice into my diet and my family's diet, but have yet to do it.  Just to let you know...this week I soaked more beans and raw nuts.  Go Sue.  Back to the raw juice class...it was amazing!  Taught by Chef Jeffrey Gabriel of the Down-to-Earth-Chef.com  I sat  in the back row chatting with my friend, sampling all his different raw juices and smoothies, and giddy with excitement as he showed us how to make our own almond milk and open a coconut.  Amazing.  Isn't it funny we don't know how to do this already?  He fed us lunch at the end of the class.  Bonus!  Complete with a delicious soup (which we'll share with you next month when we feature him as our next REAL Chef).  I made the soup tonight for dinner - so easy - so yummy - and so inexpensive.  I also was playing around trying to make a different kind of smoothie tonight and ended up with a crazy good chocolate raspberry pudding - all raw! 

So while I'm soaking nuts and beans (staying faithful), what are you doing to incorporate more REAL food into your family's life?  The question no longer is whether we should be eating REAL food or not.  The question is HOW do we feed our children and ourselves REAL food on a daily basis.  There's always more to do and more to learn.  Let us show you how.   Get started  and check out our article, 10 Steps for REAL Change.
