Hello? Are you still there? I want to apologize for not posting like I promised. This has been a hectic week and I'm just coming out of the fog.
Well, not really but I'm coming out enough to tell you about an exciting website from my friend Scott of Raw Denver.

Scott has started The Raw Dessert, a site that features well, raw desserts.
He has posted a recipe for the most heavenly raw truffles. I've eaten them straight from the man, so I know. They are rich, creamy and simply yummy. Visit his site for the recipe. You will not be disappointed.
He had a wonderful idea to put caramel in them so I'm passing along the recipe. This is what I used for the Legally Raw Bars . I think it will be a wonderful addition.

Caramel Sauce1 cup dates
1/4 cup maple syrup*
juice of one half lemon
1 tablespoon coconut oil
¼ teaspoon sea salt
1 cup water

1 Soak dates in the water and lemon juice for an hour. Reserve soaking water.

2 Process soaked dates, coconut oil and sea salt in a blender.
Using soaking water one tablespoon at time, blend until you achieve a thick creamy mixture.

My friend Scott of Raw Denver made his television debut on CW2. Scott introduces the viewing audience to the wonderful world of green smoothies.

What do you blog about when your stepson has come to live with you and you won't be talking about your Vegetable Bowl with Quinoa? Your children drinking coconut water out of coconuts of course.

This is a handy gadget called a Pipe Knife or Coconut Pipe Knife. You push the sharp edge into the coconut and pull out and Voila! you have a straw-size hole.

My friend Scott of Raw Denver got it at an Asian Market in Denver. I tried searching the internet for places to buy it with no luck. If any one out there has any information about it let me know.

Here are some photos from last night's The Aurora Living and Raw Food Cafe hosted by the lovely Gina. My contribution was Radicchio and Fennel Coleslaw. I used some ingredients from the Daily Raw Recipe Challenge. I will post the recipe some time this week. This month's challenge is almost over. March 1 will bring a new ingredient list.

I used to eat dates with an almond in it, but Scott at Raw Denver hooked me up with this recipe and I'm hooked! If you really want to Rock the Casbah, try this recipe with Raw Pecan Butter. Oh, yeah.

There was not one rawlucks but two yesterday. How lucky am to able to attend. I didn't eat anything but of course it didn't stop me from preparing two lovely dishes.
