Notes To My Sister

I’m counting down to the Believe In Green 10-day Green Smoothie Challenge.

This year’s challenge is benefiting the Lower Eastside Girls Club. In honor of the event, The Raw Divas have lined up 10 Fascinating Big Thinkers for the Challenge participants.

Robyn Openshaw is scheduled for Tuesday, August 24th.

Ms. Openshaw is THE Green Smoothie Girl, no, I really mean that! Her website is a wonderful resource for the just-curious to the I’m-diving-in folks regarding not only Green Smoothies but also for a variety of health and nutrition issues or concerns.

By the way, if you’ve signed up for the Challenge, won’t you let us know and leave a comment below?

Sarma Melngailis is scheduled for Monday, August 23rd.

Ms. Melngailis is the Executive Chef (as well as co-founder and proprietor) of New York City’s Pure Food and Wine, a repeatedly top-rated restaurant that opened in 2004. The restaurant’s menu currently features delights that range from Almond Tarts to Zucchini Lasagna, all prepared to provide maximum vitamins and enzymes. If the menu items aren’t enough to tantalize your taste buds, the photos surely will! For a more “literary” experience (i.e. food for thought), feast your eyes on Ms. Melngailis’ blog page for the raw details…One Lucky Duck.

By the way, if you’ve signed up for the Challenge, won’t you let us know and leave a comment below? The Raw Divas have raised $4,000 so far, but they will need our help to reach their $10,000 goal of support for the Eastside Girls.

Anthony Anderson is scheduled for Sunday, August 22nd. Mr. Anderson is building a self-sustainable home in Minnesota where he is also cultivating over 200 different kinds of fruits and vegetables.

While you get prepped-up for Green Smoothie Day, drop by his blog, Raw Model, to browse Mr. Anderson’s notes on green living, raw eating, and permaculture.

Ani Phyo is scheduled for Friday, August 20th. Ms. Phyo is a raw food chef-extraordinaire! I’m looking forward to checking out her newest book, Ani’s Raw Food Essentials. Having already browsed some of her Raw Food Dessert recipes, I’m confident this book will be filled with new treats to taste! When Ms. Phyo is not in the kitchen, she shares her time helping teach youth how to create their own gardens with Community Services Unlimited. For some great how-to videos and some wonderful culinary adventures check out her website, www.AniPhyo.com, the Sprouted Wild Rice with Corn and Tomato looks like a perfect match for my ripening cherry tomatoes!
