Raw Diet

Have you thought about home brewing donnag? It is a great hobby and it is much more satisfying drinking something when you know where it comes from.

It is also a good thing to do when you have an excess harvest of fruit.

:D
 
Isabella,

We think of it every day!!! One day we're actually going to get it all together. One of our friends used to home brew but had to quit because he said the beer was sooo good he was loving it too much!
 
Donnag,
If you're interested in home made wine then I can help you out there. I started making home made wine about a year ago as a hobby and I love it. Another BF member showed me how.
 
Excellent, home brew is fantastic, it is much easier than you would think.

Give it a try!!

I love both ideas and tried a batch of wine once which turned into a disaster. I'm pretty spoiled on wine from living in CA for a while. I haven't had a good Biltmore Estates wine, they have no body, but ever now and then I give one a try.

I think the skill of brewing is a great skill to have indeed. Distilling would be good too and sadly I could have learned a lot about that from my grandfather but I was just too young.
 
WHOA! :o I wasn't expecting this topic to be so HOT! I just LOVE God's people (Ammi Shaddai)!

I have TRIED the raw vegetarian diet (which included CHEESE, I just couldn't give it up; at least, not yet!) I hear when you travel to the Holy Land having CHEESE & MEAT together cannot be found (or, ordered). :cry:

My results 4 months eating 75% RAW veggie diet (only dinner half-cooked)...
my skin looked amazing (I know what you are saying Isabella about the glow), my body felt healthy, lighter & clean (on the inside), my mind was clearer (I even heard my body talk for the FIRST time, :shock: seriously, my body told me what it wanted to eat...it wasn't the still small voice), & my nails got stronger.

Thank you donnag for your insight & answering Marvin's question. Thank you for the website, Cecil!

Gen 9:3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. After Noah parked the Ark, we were given meat to eat. SweetLissa
Yes, Lissa you are right, but think about it, after the flood the atmosphere changed causing the air quality to produce animals small enough for us to eat :lol:, out of need, maybe? BUT in the beginning "God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so. Gen. 1:29-30. Back to the beginning, the Garden of Eden, a place called Paradise, is where we are trying to go, right? The way our Father explained it to me is how does one expect to LIVE, eating DEATH. However, I do see a duality here, because I do believe "meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse." 1 Cor. 8:8

So, for me,

Let everyone be convinced in their own minds.

I plan to eventually eliminate meat from my diet long-term, not for animal's sake, but because I don't believe I can run faster or levitate(if needed), when I finish a nice Med-Rare TEXAS-sized ribeye steak w/a baked potato v. a MANGO/kiwi/watermelon/orange/STRAWBERRY/banana/pineapple salad. I guess, I just desire to BE & feel LIGHTer

Todd, homemade wine? Website please!
 
Steve, I know what you mean the bloodier, the better
just a teensy clarification, it is not actually blood. just fluid from the cells :D

also, have you fermented your own veggies yet? it is awsome that i am still eating out of my wife's garden while sitting in my truck in Utah.
NO CANNING. just grind it up and ignore it while YHWH's creation does it's thing!

Fermentation is great, it is incredibly healthy and low impact. I am so glad to hear that other people are doing it, what veggies does your wife ferment?

Does anyone else do it?

Just cucumbers and sauerkraut, or and also a Turnip that a neighbour grew in her garden, that was NICE!

Turnips...not only for Sheep!!

;)
 
We love to pickle veggies, mostly carrots, green tomatoes and raddishes for the grandbabies. I just made a huge batch of pickled pigs feet to (yes I know it cannot be good for you but ...)...oh, and pickled eggs. I've never thought about fermenting anything but cabbage..interesting..
 
Pickled Pigs' Feet?

That ferments my IMAGINATION! :lol:

It is a bit much for me I am afraid....but I bet they look just yum in the jars!!! :shock:
 
My Mother craved pickled pigs feet when she was pregnant with me. Explains a lot, doesn't it. :lol:

Naaaaawwww! Just illustrates the Miracle of Grace! :lol:

As a lifelong vegetarian, you can just IMAGINE my visceral non-craving reaction to the things! :o

Sir BumbleBerry says he craves chocolate covered strawberries and sparkling grape juice. I told him to hush! He's not preggers (I'm pretty sure! Plumbed all wrong!) AND he's gotten me in 'nuff trouble lately!
 
To my knowledge, I have never eaten one. I look in the jars and think ewww! Wonder where they have been walking? :lol:
 
I have never eaten them, but I used to work in a deli that sold them. The smell was pretty frightful on the rare occasions when I had to open that huge jar and dish some out.

On the other hand, the jar, once washed was a pretty way to collect change.
