i am sorry, but i think that your dog may be "placid" because she is not getting the nutrition that she needs. puppies should not be "placid". dogs need meat to thrive.

dogs do not produce the enzymes needed to break down plant materials (cellulase). i feed my dog an all raw meat diet. he gets meat (chicken, turkey, beef, pork, and soon moose and rabbit) and fish (mackerel). i know that a lot of people do not like to handle meat but if you cannot feed your pet the things that it needs to THRIVE then maybe you should not have pets. sorry if this makes people

these apples are locally grown here and i thought that local is even better now than organic?? i am not sure! i do know that we are able to get tons of stuff locally grown since we moved to nova scotia. it is great! i LOVE the farmers markets

hi everyone,
i have not been here for a long time...got really busy.
i remember reading something before about produce numbers on here before and i can't seem to find it again now. 4XXX means regular produce and 9XXX means organic (i think) but what about the 3XXX numbers?
my husband just found out that he loves honey crisp apples but they have 3XXX numbers and i don't remember what

hey! i am a teacher too! i always feel so sad to see little children in a car with adults smoking. i always think that the parents must not like their children if they could poison them like that!
i completely understand your rant! my landlord has her daughter over all the time and she smokes (the daughter) and the smell comes right into our apt! we live in an old victorian house converte

i LOVE the law that says you are not allowed to smoke in you car with youths and children. i love in nova scotia, which was the first province to put that law into effect, and i remember the day they did it. the radio station that i listen to was ranting about how the government was taking away their rights and blah blah blah! i was SO mad! what about the rights of the children??? don't they

10. passion fruit
hi everyone,
i was just at the grocery store the other day and i was looking at the "exotic" fruit section and found something that i thought looked like a chocolate sapote. seeing everyone talk about them really made me want to try one!! so, anyway, i bought it and it turns out that it is a passion fruit. i have not ever bought one before (or even tried one!) and i was wondering

12. Re: Insects
my apt has so many ladybugs! i don't know where they all come from but i do not kill them. my cat got one one day and killed him (her?) before i got a chance to shoo the cat away! i felt really awful! i as a general rule do not kill bugs (and never have, even when i was made fun of in high school for it!!) unless they scare me and it is a reflex...like the house centipedes that we had every n

where i live there is a "green bin" program so i am pretty sure that it is getting composted. unfortunately i live in an apt and cannot compost myself. i really like the green bin though!

15. Re: fridge?
thanks! i had it in a stainless steel bowl (i am not sure if that is ok!). i guess that it will go out. that is sad because it was really good, but i forgot the pepper and i think that would make it even better! at least i can make more later today if i am feeling better!
thanks again,

16. fridge?
hi,
just a quick question, how long can i put a smoothie in the fridge? can i even put it in the fridge for later? i made maui_butterfly's cucumber dill soup the other day thinking it was what i wanted but unfortunately after it was made (and tasted - it was VERY good, thank you for the recipe!!) i really didn't want it. i have a cold right now and no appitite! it was 2 days ago, and i don

thanks!!
maui_butterfly, that sounds soooooo yummy! i love dill and i love cucumber so that is a definate option! thank you. i think that the problem is i just don't know what i can put together...i would never have thought to put dill in a smoothie. thanks so much!
enchantress, that sounds like a great idea too. i have just recently started liking avocado so i think this would be real

hi wheatgrass yogi,
i always blend. i think that it is better for me to get the fiber from the fruits and veggies anyway, since i have ibs and i have been told fiber is good for that. i really like that smoothies are thicker too!
i don't really have a fantastic juicer, it is one of the ones that have a mesh screen that spins. i find that i lose a lot fruit and juice when i use it, it all

hi everyone,
i was wondering if anyone could suggest a recipe for an all green smoothie that i can try. i have been making a smoothie with spinach and fruit nearly every day for breakfast now for over a month, but now i want something that is not sweet. i keep looking at all of the soup recipes but i am nervous, i keep thinking that they will end up tasting like V8, which i really don't like

i have been soaking pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds over night and blending then into my smoothies. it really helps. i have found that i feel fuller longer now even if i don't blend in the protein, i guess my body is getting used to eating/drinking this way.

hi everyone,
you all look great!
just a quick question, to post a picture does it already have to be on the internet somewhere? i can't seem to be able to get a picture up here even though i thought that i was following the instructions. i tried a picture that i have on facebook but i think that maybe it won't work because you have to sign in to see it?
have a great weekend everyone,
