more fun food ideas for roz savage and her trip across the pacific:
amysue from goneraw pointed me to chia seeds, which i learned is also the same as a chia pet!
http://www.living-foods.com/articles/chia.ht – lots of information on chia's history and benefits. who knew chia was a "superfood"?
i really wish i was going to anaheim this weekend for the natural products expo. i'm sure "superfoods" and raw foods are going to be a hot topic.
izhpt, also on goneraw, has found coconut water and dates to be useful for recovery after long runs.
now roz, wouldn't a lovely chia pet make a dear companion on your journey? Ha! just kidding, or maybe not?

The ship's cat – I don't think so! I've just been making a huge batch of buckwheat and sunflower seed crackers in my dehydrator. I flavored them with the by-products of my last juicing day. So I now have green crackers (carrot and kale), pink crackers (beetroot and ginger) and yellow crackers (asparagus and lemon). It will be a day or so before I can test the finished product – but the mix tasted good! (and I now feel rather sick after eating way too much of it…!!)Roz
sounds yummy. i too have made the mistake of overeating the good stuff. ouch!
