Well Come On! If the book is out of copyright (and it probably is - they didnt

used to give those long copyrights), share some of the good stuff.

Ken,That's a great deal. What a find! Talk about having your prayers answered!

That book is hard to find and when you find it, as you saw, it is priced out of

this world.  marion

LOL, I plan to, once I get a chance to read it. It was published in 1975.

I think we have come a long way from then and, thankfully, learned a thing

or two about making raw food more enjoyable. In Boutenko's book,

" Green for Life " , she says, that Ann Wigmore made an " exceptionally

beneficial energy soup " but " most of the guests at the institute were not

able to eat more than a couple of spoonfuls . . . because it was not

palatable. " (Page 25.)

I made a raw pumpkin pie from Cornbleet's website called " I can't

believe it's not pumpkin " Pie, and everyone decided they like that better than

the real Pumpkin Pie I had also made (it was vegan, but no one could tell).It is

made from carrots and it was really delish--so many of the raw and live food

dishes are. We have come a really long way!

the recipe is at:

idays_with_raw_food_dessert_recipes/

or go to www.learnrawfood.com and search for pumpkin pie

Cornbleet is the Betty Crocker of raw food. She has some great videos

on Youtube. I find her first cookbook to be my favorite. Haven't bought the

second one on desserts yet, but I am off to the bookstore this weekend.  We'll

see what I come home with

n,

As another fan of Cornbleets, all I can say is ....get the

dessert book!

You will not regret it. ;-)

I confess to being a habitual book buyer. I have most of the sprouting

books available from Amazon.ca, and make the rounds of flea markets, yard

sales, and used book stores. And I make ready use of the library; the one

here is carrying more and more books on raw foods. (I know this is not a

raw food list, but a lot of sprouters do incorporate a fair amount of raw

foods in their diet.)

I am reading Boutenko's book, " Green for Life, " from the library,

and it is amazing. I made my first green smoothie last week, and I am

enjoying them.

Life is good.

A lot of folks put sprouts in their smoothies. I am off-season for smoothies

right now-I have a Kale-Banana-almond milk one usually every day in the Summer.

They had a remarkable effect on my health. I have IBS (irritable bowel syndrome)

and was amazed at how good I felt.When the warm weather comes, I don't think

I'll mess with putting sprouts in my smoothies, but I do put them in my soups

all of the time. (my Winter diet). Sweet Potato-Kale soup with sprouts is a

daily favorite.We had a miso soup for dinner tonight that we threw lentil

sprouts into. It was awesome.

Lorri, do you have the book called " sprout garden " or Sproutman's Sprouting

book? 

I love to read about this stuff as much as I love to grow and eat it

all.marion(also an avid library user)

[Guest guest]

Lorri,Thanks for the recommendation. I had the Desserts book in my hand at

Borders today and loved what I saw. I will be ordering it tonight--I " need " to

spend a few dollars more on Amazon  to get free shipping on my sister's salad

spinner.  n

Hi n,

I still manage to do a green smoothie a few times a week but not the

everyday as I did in the summer. My winter body isn't to crazy about them.

Its funny that I don't have any of Sproutman's books as it was his silly

little Sprouthouse that got me started all those years ago. He pushed

this clear plastic house that had trays inside. I used that setup for

years. I have his books on my want list at Swaptree. But so far no luck.

Though I have had luck with them for old Norman and Ann Wigmore

books.

Sweet potato and kale and a perfect pairing. I am beginning to think I

wish I was your neighbor.

desserts I have ever made.
