Being a raw foodist is quite a big discipline and we all have those moments where we are desiring foods or activities that are less good than our high ideals. Reishi Mushrooms to the rescue! Reish is a Shen (spirit) stabilizer and will magically make things happen with you without effort that would normally take a lot of discipline… I personally have always been very emotional and very sensitive, and at times a complete victim to these things. As of this post I have been taking Reishi daily since Nov 1 2008—– Nothing has had more of an POSITIVE impact on my forward evolution like Reishi, INCLUDING RAW FOOD!
Beyond Reality – Top Chef NYC Recap – 12/03/08 Last time Richard was sent home. Quickfire-guest judge Rocco DiSpirito-in 30 mins create an amuse bouche breakfast. Bottom-Daniel & Fabio. Top-Stefan, Leah & Jamie. Leah wins immunity & Rocco’s new cookbook-Rocco gets real. Elimination challenge-create a dish for a two & a half min presentation on live TV. Judged on quality & presentation. 30 mins & $100 to shop at whole foods & 1 hour for prep. Demonstrate for Tom, Padme, Gail & Rocco. Quite a few people ran out of time & weren’t very good on camera. Bottom 3-Melissa, Alex, Jamie. Top 3-Jeff, Fabio & Ariane. Tom kidnaps the top three & makes them cook for the Today show. The hosts will be picking the winner on live TV. They choose Ariane’s watermelon salad. She wins a special bag of tools handpicked by Rocco & she gets to demonstrate her dish on the Today show today (12/4/08). Bottom 3-Melissa(too spicy), Alex (bad choice), Jamie (uncooked & poor attitude). Alex is eliminated. Next week-Gail’s bridal shower!
