Pink platter. Raw dinner recipe and yoga
What I’m eating raw…. (” See what you have, go from there”)
Dinner last night started with half a punnet of baby plum tomatoes.
Pink platter. A fresh pink sauce served with fresh salad leaves
5 tomatos cut lengthways top to tail (reserve for garnish)
10+Tomatoes
20g / small handful of pinenuts
2 sundried tomatoes
6 brazilnuts
Spinach
Fresh Herbs
Wild greens eg dandelion.
Blend the tomatoes and pinenuts together to make a sauce.
Serve on a bed of fresh leaves and garnish with chopped brazil nuts.
Place tomato halves around the outside edge and delicately place chopped sundried tomato around the sauce, by the tomatoes.
To do the best we can, in the moment, at that moment in time.
I felt a dilemma, what does it mean to have been completely raw, then mostly, most of the time? Where would it end? Are there any boundaries? To first and formost accept the fruits, (a plant based diet). Be at liberty to choose a cooked meal if it nutritionally suits. Which means to me to relax in terms of percentages and open to accepting all vegan things. (Be) We are at liberty to eat freshly until such a time when it is more sensible to eat a cooked meal eg. for sustaining a nutritional balance.
I recently went out to lunch with friends and rather than just the raw veg salads chose a cooked bean selection. Immediately one girl commented on how nice it looked. It tasted great and I was happy. Perhaps she was a meat eater, I thought and just to see someone else choose the beans, is making them an option. It was a good choice for the wider audience and myself. Isn’t it always so?
Yoga. Back twist, look up at the sky and turn to look into each open palm.
Soles of the feet together, cup feet and rub across where the Phlanges join the Metatarsals (toes join the foot). Then trace the bones upwards.
Forward bend, soles together, legs open.

Table.
Sun salutes, a bridge looking at the best place, the most advanced working place: between the hands, a headstand.
