Live Raw by Mimi Kirk
Posted by admin on 06 10th, 2011
I just love Mimi.. She is a very genuine person. She is one of my Facebook friends and I think she is amazing! I read the introduction to the book and was blown away by just the small bit of her life story.. Just a bit for you: She is 72 and was voted Peta’s Sexiest Vegetarian over 50. She was also Mary Tyler Moore’s stand in for the Mary Tyler Moore show. I saw a picture of her a typical “Mary” outfit and was blown away- yep she looked just like Mary. She has been a vegetarian and vegan for the better part of 40 years. Yes, she is an amazing lady, with an amazing outlook on life, and she just happens to be a raw foodist. She feels like she is in her 20′s. I hope that when I am 72 I feel like I am in my 20′s. I am still working on that now. I wonder if I could feel like I was a teenager while in my 40′s! She is just a bit older than my mother in law- and yet my mother in law has all the ailments of the typical “old age” and she looks her age as well (beautiful yet 70). My daughter looked at the cover of the book and couldn’t believe that Mimi is 72. She said that she hoped she looked that good when she is 72. Me too! (more…)

This week I watched a demo by Chef Heather Haxo Phillips of Raw Bay Area, hosted by Chef Cherie Soria. I loved her presentation because I have been wanting to learn more about making kefir. She made water kefir using the coconut water from a young thai coconut. Then she used the kefir to make coconut yogurt. Another thing I have been wanting to learn more about fermented foods. She used the yogurt to make a lovely breakfast parfait. (more…)
