I only saw one incident and that person was removed by Gil. ew hecklers n quit because of the hecklers.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Ooh, sorry to hear that. What she contributed (and hopefully got in return) would (in my humble opinion) far outweigh any naysayers. For the most part, we have to have a bit of a thick skin and just disregard those who seek to elevate themselves by tearing down others. They will always be among us, both online and in real life and to acknowledge them in any way just robs us of fully living our lives sometimes. n, if you're just lurking and reading this, please come back - there's a lot of support here for you and you can tell you're missed by these very comments!

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Just curious, since I haven't seen anything like that since I've been in the group, but what on earth would anyone on HERE have to " heckle " anyone else about? That just seems strange to me. And wouldn't that type of person (the " heckler " ) be removed immediately? It just boggles the mind that someone could be a member of a sprouting group and use it to harass others.... I think this group is fantastic and you've already inspired me to try sprouting new things, eat healthier and sprout MORE!

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 It happened twice. Two days in a row. It was more of an insult, than a heckle.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Suz, Thanks to you, Melody, , Pam, and a few others, plus my missing so many folks on this list, I am back to active on the list. My husband, in his understated and sagely manner advised me that since there are so many great people on this list I should come back. I am honestly more busy at the office though, so if I am participating less now, that is merely a function of time constraints and not lack of interest. It was never lack of interest! For the record, I get heckled and preached at because I am a vegan, or because I may have mentioned eating something the food police feel is bad for me. however well intended they may be, it got pretty tiresome. But I really missed chatting and learning about different sprouts, etc Well, I am going into my office hours now, so will catch up later Wishing everyone a peaceful day and thanking all for their concern and kindness!

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 n; I recently saw the movie Earthlings and while I had a very tough time seeing it , it did have a profound effect on me. The movie is called the vegan maker which is a state I aim for but have had some issues parting with cheese which is about my favorite food. So, if you are a vegan I salute you; that is a huge accomplishment. Whoever said whatever tell them to see the movie Earthlings it is a big wakeup call.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Hi Kate, Thank you for your note and kind words. I am an Italian vegan which means it was hell for me at first to give up cheese. It was hard, but I finally decided it had to go. I completely understand how you feel! But just think of what good you are already doing! I feel it is really up the person as to what dietary choices they want to make. I am happy to share the rhyme and reasoning behind mine. I have found that since adding more sprouts to my diet, I care less and less about foods I used to crave. I was craving my fenugreek sprouts today and had a very nice bowlful with rice tonight. I was disappointed that my lentil sprouts were not ready yet, but that just means tomorrow they will be and they will be great. n who was very excited to see her bromeliad plant books arrived in the mail today Dr. Rollings NJ Licensed Psychologist #4686 www.DrnRollings.com Sent from my iPad > n; > I recently saw the movie Earthlings and while I had a very tough time seeing it > , it did have a profound effect on me.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 I also don't crave anything since i have added sprouts to my repertoire. (don't you love that word??)lol Just now I ordered my seeds. I was originally going to order the 3 part salad mix. Alfalfa, Radish and broccoli, but then I realized that I still have half of the 5 lb cannister of broccoli left. And I have a nice sized amount of the radish left. (I like the radish in my sprouts but not too much, they are really hot). So I just bought a 2.5 bag of alfalfa and a 2.5 bag of Fenugreek. If I didn't have to pay for shipping, now THAT would be a good deal. But I buy over the internet so I have no choice. I WAS going to sprout my non-organic Fenugreek seeds, the one that I got in the store. The ones I make the tea out of. But... I looked online and it says " Only sprout the Fenugreek seeds that are grown for planting and for sprouting " . so that means organic and I'm not taking any chances. And I do love my sprout salads and my sprout breakfast sandwich. No one even looks at me any more when I'm eating breakfast. They all know I bring in my tub of sprouts and dump them on the sandwich. How cool!!! Sproutingly yours. (I love that too) lol Melody http://www.youtube.com/user/eliz7212?feature=mhum May 2, 2011 08:25:44 PM, sproutpeople wrote: =========================================== Hi Kate, Thank you for your note and kind words.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Oh no n...not more books. ; ) Its nice to see you back! Though I didn't leave I have been keeping a low profile myself. The my way is the only way attitudes from some left me a bit cold. But knowing your back warms it right up again. Sproutpeople, for me , is based on three pivotal components. Your sweetness and compassion, Melodys humor and infectious excitement and EWs steadiness and knowledge. Without all three all is not right. Isn't it funny...its always cheese. Meat was so not a big deal to give up...milk , eggs , ice cream...a breeze. Now cheese on the other hand ....lol. Luckily on the rare occasions that I feel the need its been so long that some of the Vegan alternatives work just fine. Once again...welcome back.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 We should find a way to sprout cheese!! Now THAT would be a sprout!!! lol Melody http://www.youtube.com/user/eliz7212?feature=mhum May 2, 2011 08:44:20 PM, sproutpeople wrote: =========================================== Oh no n...not more books. ; ) Its nice to see you back!

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Oh Lorri, I missed you!!! I said that to my husband the other day--which led to his comment about returning. I always enjoy your posts. Plus, aside from my fondness for Durians (especially in coconut milk), and taking shots of apple cider vinegar (cold, never wam , we seem to have been parted at birth lol Yes, cheese is hard for most people. I actually cant stand the sight or smell of it any longer. A reasonable substitute (for me at least), is fermented bean curd (Dofu yi). I was in an Asian market the other day, comparing taste notes with this wonderful, wizened Chinese gentleman. He had to be in his 80's and after he got over the shock of my knowing and eating the stuff, we had a grand time. But really, I don't miss cheese. For those who are having trouble, the Daiya brand is pretty good. It does melt. I am planning eventually to make a raw nut cheese, but it seems lately I am reading a lot about it but not making it! And speaking of reading, I discovered the joys of ebooks on an ipad. I still love good old fashioned books though. I remain incorrigible. marion Dr. Rollings NJ Licensed Psychologist #4686 www.DrnRollings.com Sent from my iPad > Oh no n...not more books. ; ) > > Its nice to see you back!
