Love to garden and I try to grow unusual and heirloom varieties. Live way out in the country on an old farmstead with 3 dogs I gave up meat in the summer of ‘07 before I learned of the raw food/vegan movemnt. I just didn’t feel well when I ate it. I have noticed that I have more energy and require less sleep when I eat a lot of vegetables and especially with more raw food. My husband has a lot of fatigue issues that I think would be helped by more raw foods in the diet. We are in our early forties and starting to feel the age factor! We eat far healthier than the typical American, but there is always room for improvement. I usually keep YahooMessenger up when I’m around the house, which unfortuneately isn’t too much.
