Raw Food Recipes + Valya Boutenko

Happy Friday, Everyone!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend, I am not quite sure if I will be seeing you or not since today is the last day of the poll to the left.

Choose wisely, dear readers the fate of my blogging humanity, as we know it, hangs in the balance.
Okay, okay, I'll stop. Today is the last day and I would really appreciate your vote. But the Daily Raw Blog world will survive to see another day, if you don't vote. No pressures, it is just for fun, right?
I am not really into bribes, I would never think of trying to bribe you with a plate of cookies or anything. You are much to clever to fall for something like that. But just in case you were hungry for a few recipes here you go, enjoy reading them while you are clicking the mouse on the poll to the left. And if polls really and truly aren't your thing, that's cool, there is a nice Give-away here.
