This post was inspired by Rawvana, another inspiring raw foodist that went on a watermelon island. I’ve heard of the banana island diet where you simply spent a few days eating bananas. But watermelon? Why didn’t I think of that? It’s a fruit that is high in water content and contains vitamin C. Well, it…
This recipe version of baked potato wedges was inspired by Freelee The Banana Girl’s recipe on baked potato wedges and sweet chili sauce.

The lemongrass scent is refreshing and energizing. I love how it awakens the senses with its hint of herbaceous note that is not totally acrid or sharp but soothing. It’s the zesty smell of greens that often enlightens me and made me feel grounded to the earth. That’s how I began to fall in love…
I love the scent of raspberries. It’s sweet, delightful and has a slight floral scent. It’s from the rose family after all. Very soft, juicy and highly delicate. Eating raspberries for breakfast is one of the best treats you could possibly get. That morning, I topped a jar full of frozen strawberry banana ice cream…

What made me realize I should cut down my consumption on dairy products was when I read that ” cow’s milk are meant for the cows to drink and not humans”. True enough. It seems that many of us are lactose-intolerant not because of a gene deficiency that does not equipped with our body the…
Who doesn’t love fries? But this fast food is often associated with trans fats, cholesterol, heart disease and obesity because of its method of preparation which often requires the heavy use of oil. The starchy potato strips are also high in carbohydrates which puts many in fear of weight gain. But, fortunately, they are healthier…
