Hello everyone
Sorry we were planning on writing a post last night, but we treated ourselves to some wine. 
See we were doing work in the background. Got the computer and a notebook out at least!
Oh we did create a new recipe….key lime macaroons, which we think we will be adding to Pure2Raw product line.
First attempt at key lime macaroons
YUMMY...give me more
We were having our last glass of wine together before Michelle leaves Saturday morning and she will be gone for the entire month of September for her RAW foods cooking school at 105 Degrees.
Despite drinking a glass, okay 2, we did have a busy night getting things done off our checklist! Always a good feeling. Well we got Michelle all setup and ready to go. At least we think> LOL>
She is still trying to figure out how she is going to fit all of her stuff into her suitcases. Though, I am planning on sending her a box full of goodies to be sent to her hotel room next week. (I know I am such a nice sister)
The essentials from Whole Foods.
Yummy raw treats for the trip. Thanks to Pure2Raw our raw foods line from Twin Cakes Bakery. A variety of our onion flatbreads, crackers and macaroons.Perfect for traveling.
We started our day with a glass of warm lemon water! Then had ourselves a delicious green smoothie and we wanted to share with you the recipe because it was so good!!
Green Smoothie:
- 2 apples
- 1 cup frozen fresh figs
- 1 lemon zest
- 4 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 packet stevia
- 2 stalks purple kale
- large handful of parsley
- pinch cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
Blend in blender till smooth. And enjoy. We put ours in a wine glass to jazz it up a little. It is amazing what you pour your drinks into can make all the difference!
Our delicious green smoothie. The best way to start your day. Fuels you up with the energy you need for your day. No more coffee needed.
The rest of day is going to be pretty busy for us. We will be in the kitchen all day baking for the farmers market, plus one engagement cake and one birthday cake! We’re hoping we can squeeze in a little workout, maybe a quick run or yoga. Plus Michelle has to start actually putting things into her suitcase, which I have a feeling is going to take awhile.
Michelle will keep everyone posted on her journey in Oklahoma City for her culinary school her at pure2raw. As I will too try to let everyone know how I am doing….if I am going insane or not, haha. Also, I will be posting updates on our Twin Cakes bakery blog, so please check that out too. This month will be interesting for the both of us, so we hope you enjoy our story of being a apart for a month.
Hope everyone has a Great Friday!
Till next time,
The Raw Twins

Hi Lori & Michelle – I read your comment on the thread at BlogHer about generating comments. It seems like you”re doing all the right things so keep it up! It takes time to build a blog identity. You might want to check out Veggie’ Girl – a popular blog with lots of raw food/vegan bloggers in her blog roll.
As for myself, I’m far from vegan but do eat a healthy diet and I’m sure your blog will inspire me anyway!
Good luck
Maris thanks for your support and advice! I really appreciate it. And I will definitely look at Veggie Girl site again (I have been there before). Sometimes it gets hard to keep up with everyone because there are so many great people out there with great blogs. I hope to keep inspiring you to eat healthier!
I saw your site, great job!!
