Another Raw Food Potluck and a game of Croquet








It is another day here in the Berkshire mountains living at Kripalu. There was a raw food potluck this afternoon that was wonderful. I brought a simple grapefruit, orange and banana fruit salad. There were some wonderful flax crackers that had a mexican theme that were great, a mock tuna salad, corn salad, avocados, watermelon, freshly picked strawberries, brownies, chocolate dessert goodness, and sunburgers that I did not get a picture of. I made a wrap with the flax crackers, avocado, and mock tuna and I was in heaven. Once again after attending a raw potluck I feel inspired to eat raw food again. The food was so delicious and fresh and the people are incredible! I don't have a group shot to show here. I am waiting on Michael to send me the group shot he got with his camera. Michael if your reading this send it to me! After we ate we played a game of crocket and I of course won, j/k, I didn't win and let's just say I won't quit my day job to become a famous crocket player. I am so inspired by all of the wonderful people who were there. I am going to attempt to post more often showing my everyday meals. They most likely won't be gourmet since here at Kripalu I mostly eat salads but still it could possiblly be interesting so I will try and do it.

By the way, my birthday is tomorrow and I am excited because I don't have to work and am going out that night with some friends! I am off to bed and hope everyone has a great night and dreams about raw brownies!

    Those brownies look awesome! I have definitely strayed away from eating all raw and I've been trying to incorporate more raw foods back in!

  8. Hope you had a great birthday, April. Don't worry about your croquet skills, as your dessert skills will take you anywhere you want to go.

    @ Melinda,

    Those brownies tasted as good as they looked! I think I had four, but who's counting?
