Hello!
Its been lovely and sunny here in the UK and it defenatly brings out my creative side.
Its strange, in winter i feel like i want to eat light and simply, but as soon as the sun comes out and i get the summer bug, i suddenly want to eat heavier and get more creative food wise.
I decided to do a few gourmet style recipes this weekend which turned out very well.
I was going to make a chocolate sauce, which went wrong, and instead i got a fudge/brownie mixture!!!! it was AMAZING AND TOTALLY DELICIOUS!
So far i have just mixed it with goji berries but i have many different things i could make with it
Im looking forward to making a seed energy bar, which i think would work very well.
I made Nut balls, fugde/brownies and chololate and fig cheesecake. All of which are delicious if i do say so myself! (photos will be added at some point!)
I bought a spiralizer also, and made my first spaghetti and sauce today and LOVED IT! It has rekindled my love of pasta, and i love that i can made raw pasta that taste just as good as the bad kind!
My leg is getting better so im looking forward to starting to do more exercise. Its been driving me nuts not being as active as usual.
I hope to get some photos up soon

cacao overdose!
Hey,
Earlier i decided to make double choc chip ice cream with frozen chocolate sauce. Well Ive just eaten the whole tub. it was DELICIOUS! Except now i have excruciating stomach pains and gas :(
oh dear Cherry, you have eaten toooo much!
I think i have over indulged in cacao this weekend and its time to seriously cut it out of my diet for a little while.
Its not the cacao that's giving me the stomach pains, its bad food combining and grazing all day, rather than eating when I'm hungry. I deserve it. In fact I'm grateful for it because it will teach me a lesson. A very painful lesson.
One thing i forgot to write in my previous post was a short dream i had. I'm my dream, it was the weekend and i made a decision to eat normal chocolate. as soon as i ate it i regretted it because i was no longer 100% raw, i had failed myself because i didn't need to eat it, i wasn't craving it and there was no reason for me to consume the chocolate.
When i woke up, i was so relieved it was just a dream. It made me realize how important this lifestyle is to me, and how important it is to me to be and stay 100% raw.
